Mobile enable your WordPress blog with MobilePress

With MobilePress you can take your WordPress blog on to your readers' mobile handsets, with the ability to use customized themes.

clip_image002[22]With MobilePress you can take your WordPress blog on to your readers’ mobile handsets, with the ability to use customized themes.

With this plug in you could do the following:

  • Use specific themes for specific devices / mobile browsers, such as iPhone, Opera Mini, Windows CE Mobile and other generic handset browsers.
  • Theme designers can create custom mobile themes for WordPress blogs using this plugin.

Up until the release of MobilePress, there was no plugin that offered the ability to render a WordPress Blog on a mobile device, while at the same time giving the user the ability to use a well-designed theme. This solution comes completely free of ads, and there are no backlinks to worry about either. What you see is what you get.

Installation steps

  • Upload the MobilePress directory to your /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  • Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  • If you are using a caching plugin (ie, wp-supercache), clear your cache now.
  • If you plan on using custom themes, or wish to specify a custom title/description for your mobile blog, you can set these in the MobilePress admin panel.
    That’s it, you’re good to go!

So, go ahead, give your weblog more exposure and outreach.

I Installed this plugin few days back and this plugin is as good as it says. Though one downside of this plugin is if you use adsense around your blog posts.. It will not optimize them for mobile phones and thus post look ugly when we view it in mobile 😐

Oh that’s something no one would want.
Any workaround for this?

@Harsh
There should be some function provided by the plugin to check if the user is from mobile or not.
You can use that on your site in an if statement.
