I really like the Newspaper theme! However, I can’t decide about the mobile version. On one hand, the MOBILE THEME plugin is appealing because it makes the site much faster, but there are many subpages and categories where I would prefer to disable it.
Is it possible to configure the MOBILE THEME so that it only runs, for example, on post pages or specific post categories, and not at all on pages (except for the homepage)? Manually disabling it page by page in Gutenberg would be very cumbersome. Is there a practical solution for this?
On the other hand, the MOBILE TEMPLATE is also appealing because it can be customized, BUT the site loads much more slowly. Which solution is likely to be more prominent in the future? What do you recommend? Or is it possible to use these two in combination? thanks
Hello,
There is an option to disable the mobile theme from a page/post – https://i.imgur.com/d3kTBRf.png. This option appears in the Gutenberg editor. After you disable the mobile theme on the page, you can use the responsive version. There are no other solutions.
To increase page speed, I recommend checking which thumbnails you are using on your blocks. You might want to avoid enabling all of them and optimize and regenerate images. You can use the EWWW Image Optimizer for image optimization and the OMGF plugin for fonts. Additionally, you can use the WP Rocket plugin.
There are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you can check some of them

Alright, thank you very much for the response!
I finally decided to use the Mobile Theme plugin.
I can set everything up nicely, but for the WooCommerce shop page, even though I disable the Mobile Theme in the Gutenberg editor, only the default WooCommerce store layout appears. However, the “Woo Shop Base Template – Kids Store” template is installed as both the Global and Mobile Template. On PC, the Kids Store template displays beautifully.
How can I configure this so that a different design appears on the WooCommerce shop page? (Specifically for WooCommerce, at least on the shop page, I would like to disable the Mobile Theme plugin. – http://ajovokezdete.hu/shop)
Hello,
Unfortunately, you can not disable the tagdiv mobile theme plugin for the cloud templates.
Thank you!
