I'm using that plugin and apparently it's not working properly? It worked fine for a day or so but now if you try and navigate through my menu it reverts back to the "not so friendly mobile" version of my site? Any advice?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I just checked my website to see if the plugin was working properly and it's not. There could be a technical issue with the plugin itself. Sometimes plugins can be a little testy. Another plugin you might want to use is WP Mobile Detector. It's gotten pretty good reviews. I'm thinking of using it myself. Lol.

Good information to know if we want to create websites for mobile device and lets face there is a lot of them and they are here to stay. So it would be good to have our site mobile ready.

Good info.
Most people have a smart phone or ipad... that is, most people except me! So, to see what a website looks like on a cell phne or ipad, I use the following website: mobilephoneemulator.com
I use this website because I make mobile friendly websites for many local businesses and that's the only way for me to see what I've made for them.

Jhoecannon - this is a great tip... I also don't have a smartphone and I have my first local marketing client. Can you tell me what template you use for mobile sites and what you typically charge your local marketing customers? I have a meeting with my client coming up and I'm not sure what to charge. (I've only been doing this 6 months). Thanks!
