Tips on building a mobile version of an existing site

Several years ago, I created a simple Web site to show the images that I maintain.  Currently, I use DWCS4 to maintain the site. I know very little coding and just used the GUI and models to create.

So now that mobile devices are more common than desktop computers, I would only focus on the creation of a mobile version of the site.  I just sense, looking for someone to direct me in a general direction of the way in which this should be done.

I could just build a new user-friendly mobile page for each of the current pages on my site and then use a simple javascript that redirects to the mobile version of the page in question for devices with screens ranging from less than 800.  Of course, the problem is that I must do this for each page, there are probably more than 100.  But I do not see at present any other possibility.

Any advice?  Thanks in advance.

If you are a non-codeur and do not work outside of design mode, you are not ready to create responsive web sites.  Coding skills are essential.

Rebuild your site dynamically with WordPress and a sensitive theme.   In the end, you'll have something that works on all devices and is easier to maintain through the dashboard WordPress or CMS.

  • Mobile version of a Web site on my laptop

    I ran malwarebytes last night and removed a bunch of "registry errors. Today, one of the websites that I use frequently; fodors.com, presents itself in Firefox as the mobile version. This is the only site that seems to appear like a mobile version and the mobile version is not displayed when I try it in Internet Explorer. Any suggestions?

    Hi eyalnow, what I see in Firefox, Chrome, and Firefox Mobile is a sensitive provision which varies based on the width. If you are looking for in your stylesheet (http://eyalnow.com/eyalnow/wp-content.../style.css) 1260, you can see the media query which allows to reverse the provision to a width of document 1260px or more.

    Its simple, but the measure of the width of the page (window.innerWidth) in Firefox 22 and later is different than in previous versions because it is adjusted depending on the zoom level, as part of Firefox becomes an application "DPI-compatible". 1260 physical monitor pixels will be indicated as a lower number if your zoom level is greater than 100%. For example, if the zoom level is 125%, it is reported as 1050 pixels in CSS layout.

    If you zoom up and down on the next page of the piece, you can see how this new math: http://dev.jeffersonscher.com/resolution.html

    Then... If you look at your site at a high zoom level, and you want the layout "desktop", what is the solution? One possibility is to let the user to reduce the zoom level if they find the most compact layout is too large for comfortable reading. Another possibility is to experiment with additional variables to refine reactive behavior. I don't have enough experience to suggest how you could do.

    Hello world

    So I'm doing a sensitive site with muse. I do my mobile version look different than the rest of my break points because I don't want any crowded mobile version. I need to find a way to hide extra content, I've tried makes it opaque, moving out of the workspace visible and even put it on another layer but that affects still content on the other points of arrest or in the case of trying to get out of the workspace, I have just a really wide page and all this content is still visible. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Please try following the steps to achieve this.

    1. Select the breaking point where you try to hide certain content.

    2. Select the content you want to hide

    3 right-click > select hide the breakpoint

    This step will keep these elements hidden in the selected breakpoint, but they will be visible in other breakpoints.

  • Mobile version of the Site using bad assets

    I saw my site on businesscatalyst and it looks perfect on the desktop, but when I view it on mobile, is to show mainly texts and images of the model I used that I deleted and replaced with my belongings. Why these still appear only on laptop instead of that I replaced with.

    Can you check the mobile version of the Web site on your desktop by adding a "/ phone" to the URL.

    If you are able to see the same text and images of the model, so I advise to check the mobile version of your site in Muse:

    Kind regards

  • BlackBerry smartphones return to the mobile version?

    Hey... Is there a way to return to a mobile version of a Web page once you click on the link to access the full version?... If there is, what should I do?

    Well,... not knowing exactly what Web page, you speak of (you don't say), some sites will automatically connect you mobile site if it detects a mobile browser (like this forum) and will give you a choice * sometimes * at the bottom of the page to go to the "full site" If you wish. And when you do, the next time you sign in from a mobile browser, you will still be presented with mobile site.

    Now, having said that, some sites like Twitter page can give your device a cookie to maintain your preferences of the full version. And there is no URL change page to make your choice of it.

    So to answer your question... it depends.
