Mobile Theme, anyone?

+4 votes

Okay, here's a mobile theme.  It's pretty simple.  Probably lots of people want something totally different, so before you ask, I don't even have a mobile device to test this on.  If you want me to work on it, first send me a mobile device :P​   
​   
Otherwise, consider this a DIY project.  It's here:​

The best way to use this theme is with something like the theme-switcher plugin, here:​

And turn on the mobile theme recognition.

Here's a mock-up screenshot, but ymmv:

Now working, thanks :)
is there any additional steps to get it working?

i have downloaded the theme and the plugin, placed both in the appropriate directory, however, i dont see the style switcher in the footer, and i dont see mobile theme when tested from Samsung Galaxy S2 browser.
also, on mini opera demo site http://demo.opera-mini.net/public/

it shows the normal theme.

my site url is  : http://www.kalaaam.com/

Fantastic theme and plugin !!! Thanks

The only comment I have is that the extra code I add on top, for adsense, appears also in the mobile theme, where it looks a bit odd.

Thanks for the great work :)

I don't think it would be right to remove the main and full widgets... the side widgets are already removed along with the sidebar; what if someone wants to keep the widget in the mobile theme?

You're better off just adding a custom call like I mention above, or else a css to set display:none in the mobile theme; otherwise, someone will complain that the theme removes their widgets :)
ok, will try to do that. I still think that the mobile theme should do that automatically, but I guess you are right, some people would complain .. :D
