LoGroNo now optimized for mobile devices

By Griff Wigley, on November 28th, 2009

A few weeks ago, I installed a WordPress plugin that made it easy to browse this Locally Grown blog via a web browser on a mobile phone. It worked on my G1 but unfortunately, not on the iPhone. Earlier this week, Felicity Enders alerted me to a different plugin (WPTouch). I installed it and voila! it now works for the iPhone, iPod touch, Android (Google), and BlackBerry touch mobile devices. (continued)

Comments are visible after clicking on any post and you can add a comment as well. The best way to keep track of comments, however, is to use an RSS reader app on your device and subscribe to our comments RSS feed. Then if you see a comment that you’d like to comment on, click the link to the comment. It will activate the mobile-optimized view of the web page and position you for typing in your comment.

Let me know if you have suggestions on how the mobile app view should be tweaked. And a tip-of-the-blogger-hat to Felicity!

It appears that the WPtouch mobile app plugin that we’ve been using is causing problems for visitors who use Internet Explorer and Google Chrome browsers. So I’ve disabled it for now until I can investigate further.

I’ve turned it back on and disabled WP Super Cache instead. All appears to be working but let me know if not.
