WordPress Mobile Edition 3.0.2

Posted in: News, WordPress

WordPress Mobile Edition is a plugin that shows an interface designed for a mobile device when visitors come to your site on a mobile device.

The 3.0.1 release of WordPress Mobile Edition suffered from a failed SVN merge in the theme, causing the comments to display incorrectly. I took a more direct approach with the theme this time so this shouldn’t be an issue with the 3.0.2 release.

I also made the following changes:

  • Changed the name of the theme so that it’s clear that you still have work to do (place the theme in the themes directory, per the README) if you try to “auto-upgrade”. This will be done by standard in future releases.
  • Added mobile search engines to the default list of auto-detected mobile devices.

The download and more information are available on my WordPress Plugins page.

If you have any trouble with this, please open a thread in the WP Support Forums and e-mail me a link to the thread.

    I posted this to an older version. Will users be able to use polls on their mobile phones using this plugin?

    Thanks.

    Thanks a lot Alex! Excellent work.
    I was wondering: is there any way to add blog information just below the blog’s name?
