I set up a mobile theme as shown in the Newspaper documentation and it works on my desktop when I collapse the width of my window, but when I try to load the website on my phone, it just gives me the default mobile page. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. The website is https://myuniverseofsleep.com/
Hello,
You have the mobile theme plugin activated, the mobile theme comes with its own templates for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
Better deactivate the plugin and see the results
Also, if you create a mobile page, please make sure you assign it like this https://www.screencast.com/t/lektAhyjd

Interesting. I have been breaking my head for the last 16 hours trying to solve exactly this problem. Finally, I logged into the forum to find this being discussed.
What you said works perfectly for all mobile templates such as home, tag, search, and page templates. It does not work only in the category mobile template. So I don’t think I am doing anything wrong.
I tried deleting all category templates for desktop as well as mobile and recreate them.
Even then, it simply refuses to apply the mobile theme. Actually, it applies some parts (such as limit post numbers in the post loop) but refuses to remove the flex blocks inserted earlier in the template. Looks like some shortcodes, once created, do not get deleted in category mobile template.
I used Magazine PRO templates to start with and modified them for my website, if that helps.
Hello @MadhurKotharay!
Normally, when you activate the mobile theme plugin, it will overwrite the design you build for your mobile view with his own layout. It comes with its own templates/design for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout. For more details, please take a look here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/

Hope that helps you!
Thank you!
