[Implemented] Forum optimizatiom for mobile access?

Post by Wolfgan »

I wonder if the forum server has any mod installed for mobile devices access. I found that phpBB mods are being posted about this topic, and some are recommended at their forums like https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styl ... er_mobile/
Do you feel worthy to try installing it?
Thx, Wolf

Im all for that mod :)

I use on Android - ForumTouch Its not the best, but it gets the job done till SubJunk gets some time to spend on the forum -- Coding UMS is top priority. :)

Launch for the new phpBB version 3.1 is approaching, beta just released a few days ago https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... &t=2233216
Interesting new features and rebase of core components, Wolf

Found the latest phpBB Beta running into production in the official dev forum at http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/
Forum rendering, usability and speed improved a lot compared to previous versions.
Looking forward the official release and hope it can be implemented in here soon.

Great news! New version of PHPBB (v3.1.1) was recently released with a lot of new features, security patches, easier administration and mods handling, and also mobile support thru response design theme!

https://www.phpbb.com/about/launch/

May this forum be upgraded? (I know many efforts are spent on bringing UMS 5.0 to life but some love on the forum will also help :-)
