Title: Why this forum is not mobile friendly at all? Post by: anoopch on March 15, 2014, 07:09:57 PM Hi,
I wonder why this forum is so hard to browse and post from a mobile device? It requires lot of pinch and zoom to complete posting. Should it be bit more easy and enjoyable.? Please tell your comments and suggestions about what can be done to improve this. Title: Re: Why this forum is not mobile friendly at all?

Because it doesn't have a layout specifically made for mobile, so your phone is just loading the regular html. I remember a while back they were looking for someone to do a major site re-design. I don't know if that ever happened though (or if it would involve a separate default layout for mobile) Title: Re: Why this forum is not mobile friendly at all?

Modern phones can handle html5 just fine however a responsive design which adapts content to a small screen is what is considered mobile friendly for modern websites.

Post by: medUSA on March 15, 2014, 09:59:22 PM There is a mobile version of the forum here: http://bitcointalkmobile.appspot.com/ It was developed by Logik. Reference thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=165779.0 Wow, this is nice! But is this safe? I mean no risk of loosing my id and password? Just checked it out... Doesn't seem to load more than 30 newest threads?? Title: Re: Why this forum is not mobile friendly at all?

Modern phones can handle html5 just fine however a responsive design which adapts content to a small screen is what is considered mobile friendly for modern websites. WAP2 was released in 2002. The forum does not use HTML5 anyways. There is minimal interactive content and the styling is hardly anything fancy. The regular version of the forum is no better equipped than WAP2 in my opinion, and given the faster load times of the latter, it is the mobile version of choice.

Title: Re: Why this forum is not mobile friendly at all? Post by: mprep on March 17, 2014, 08:04:18 PM The design is kind of fine. It just gets really irritating trying to open a thread on a certain page in a new tab. Although that could only be a problem for me I guess.
