Apostrophe 2 on Mobile
-
Hi,
I like this theme and am hoping to use it to develop a site for my students to use to post video and audio work. The trial stage can be seen at http://ueajournalism.wordpress.com . One issue: there appear to be two levels of mobile adaptation: on a phone, the ‘mobile’ version knocks out all the imagery, logos, photos etc. – which is going too far. But the ‘full site’ version, still on a phone, reshapes itself (from three column to single), keeps all the design features and looks great. Is there any way to make this the default display for mobile? Most people are likely to use the site on mobile devices – and they will never experience the good features of the site or the theme.

The way the theme is designed, features and set up instructions as well as a link to the live demo site is found at https://wordpress.com/theme/apostrophe-2
Note that we disable the Mobile theme when using a responsive layout theme. See also Mobile themes https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/mobile-themes/
https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/mobile-themes/#disabling-mobile-themesAdditional information:
The mobile ready theme is a default theme provided for those who run older themes that aren’t the gold standard which is responsive layout. It is a completely different theme that you do not need to enable, if your theme is listed as a responsive layout theme here https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/responsive-layout/A responsive layout theme adapts to different screen sizes so that your website will work (and be optimized for) iPhones, iPads, Android and other mobile devices. When responsive width themes are viewed on mobiles sidebars appear below the posts in order to provide as much space as possible for reading.
When we use a responsive theme we disable the mobile theme. Go to >Dashboard > Appearance > Mobile and disable the mobile theme

Brilliant – thanks timethief. In my ignorance, I’d assumed disabling the ‘mobile’ version would have dire consequences. If only it were always this simple…
