Mobile Compatability

[Ross]

Is there some sort of plugin you can install on the forums to make it work better with mobiles? I love being able to get on the forums anywhere but its really difficult to navigate on a phone. I know its possible on some forums because I've seen it before. Is it possible here?

[henk]

no i don't think De has a mobile website if thats what you mean?

What device are you trying to access the forums from? If you're on a reasonably sized smartphone, navigating should not be too difficult. I see your point, though, but I shall try to explain my thinking: to allow the site to be more mobile friendly, I would need to install a plug-in to the board software itself. With phpBB (the board software), installing plug-ins (or modifications, as they are called) is somewhat of a risky business that easily can lead to problems that would require lots of time to fix. As the parts for my computer now are spread all over the world, I'd at least like to wait until I get them back before even considering to install such a thing.

Point well taken, however, and it is something I will consider doing in the future!

he means blackberry's.
i think though because he has one haha:)
and i have one to. you can navigate good on the browser but its really big and
it doesn't adjust but if it brings problems i wouldn't do it.

Thanks for the response guys.
Yeah I am using a BlackBerry and it can be a little bit difficult to navigate sometimes.
If its gonna cause a risk to everything, don't do it but I just thought it could be a future development =]

I don't understand that it would be difficult to navigate on a smartphone.

it isn't difficult...
but you know the 9292 service in the netherlands? for traveling they have 9292mobiel.ov or something
so it loads faster and you can see everything more clearly.
it was just a question i think:P
