Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Shawn's tutorials!

I hope the new year is finding you all well and healthy!

This tutorial is going to cover using the WPTouch mobile plug in to convert most non responsive themes into mobile friendly and tablet friendly displays.

Many themes brag they are responsive but after downloading and installing them you realize only the paid versions are actually responsive.

I learned of this with one of my sites, www.justbuilditnow.com yesterday thanks to a fellow WA member who is having the same issues with his site and having way too many custom settings on this theme already in place, it is the flexability 3 theme by the way, I had to figure out how to make this work.

Thus, here we go!

But first we must determine if your site is mobile friendly or not.

Go to Mobile-friendly test and find out how your site rates.

If you find your site is not mobile friendly continue with this tutorial :)

Hm. Something about my experiences.
Maybe I don't understand the term mobile friendly very good but I have next experience with plugin "WPTouch mobile plugin" and "Mobile-friendly test":
1.) I did the test on http://dv-vinjivrh-belacerkev.com
2.) Result was negative
3.) Although visually it was O.K. for my taste. I did the test on my samsung.
4.) However I installed plugin
5.) 'Everything' was wrong after installation
6.) Of course I immediately deactivated plugin. Everything is O.K. again

Now I'm a little confused but I'll survive. End is good everything is good. :)

The plug in uses a completely different theme for the mobile version and maybe it will not work with your theme.
Glad all is well :)
