Categories on mobile homepage

Hello tagDiv team,

I’d like to keep one particular category from appearing on my mobile homepage – I use this category to publish in Portuguese, and I’m afraid having those stories in the mobile homepage postlist may be a bit confusing for my U.S. readers. Would it be possible to accomplish that with a php tweak?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Unfortunately the theme has no such options so that will not be an easy task as the blocks must be changed and conditions added to them to exclude the specific category only for mobile phones. You can replicate this method to apply to your blocks on the homepage if you have the proper coding skills: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/exclude-specific-category-from-big-grid-on-category-pages-and-mega-menu/
Thank you!

Thanks Bogdan – this one is beyond my skills.

I love the simplicity of the mobile theme (that’s pretty much the whole point of a mobile theme), so I’m not going to ask you to start bloating it up with all kinds of options. But other mobile solutions (for example, WPtouch) offer the ability to exclude categories from mobile, so I’d suggest that option is worth considering.

Thanks again!

Hello,
This is just the 1.0 version of the mobile theme. It will have more options in the future. This primary version is the testing version so we can see if it caches on and if users like/use it. if it will grow in popularity, it will certainly be improved and updated.
Thank you!

I’d hope the mobile theme not only gets adopted but also becomes another selling pint for the theme. I was using WPtouch, but I switched as son the mobile them became available and I don’t plan on looking back. Having a mobile theme that maintains a consistent look and user experience is huge.

Thanks!
