Mobile theme questions.

Hi there.
Im doing my 1st web ever, and i bought your theme. Im amazed, good job. But i have some problems with the “phone display”. Im in love/hate with the mobile theme, so maybe you can help me out:

1- I really love the mobile theme in terms of the POSTS. Its really clean, and no sidebar showing up (which i consider innecesary on phones). Everything is clear and fast.
BUT! The homepage… its waay simple for me. I know are able only to put the grid to features posts, and the “last articles”. But im missing so much things, even the slider revolution which gives nice visual.

In the other hand, if i desactivate the mobile theme plugin, i really like the homepage shown, but the Posts are way more chaotic with the sidebar in the botton. Even for Ads, i think is way simpler to add them with the plugin On.

So… what can i do? I mean, there is a way to have everything set up with the plugin, except the homepage? Or is just impossible?

2- I didnt want some social icons, so i read the forum and found that CSS text which hide the unnecesary ones.
The problem is, when i update the POST in the mobile (with NO PLUGIN), it shows all the icons for 1 second, and then it hides the unnecesary ones. Call me maniac, but i really dont like that xD

Notice that if i activate the mobile theme plugin, go to theme panel->mobile theme->custom CSS and put the code, when i refresh the post its perfect. It doesnt show anything else than the icons i want.

And in the desktop, it depends. Sometimes it show them for 0.5 secs only, and then dissapear.

How can i solve this? Instead of hiding the icons that i dont want, its possible delete them? Maybe i have no issues if i do that. (I know is a bit of maniac, but…xD)

3- As i said in point 1, i really dont like sidebars on phone view. Thats why i want the mobile theme plugin (for me perfect in 95%) with the homepage from desktop version.

In case you cannot provide me a solution, ill have to put the sidebar. My intention was to put 1-2 Ads (from adsense) on that spot, in post pages. But i want to have a smart sidebar, cause my posts are long and it feels empty when you start to go down on the web and see nothing on the right.

But i read that i cannot put adsense on smartsidebar, so… my question is. Can i put on static ad from adsense in the begining of the sidebar (like a normal sidebar), and then a smart sidebar which goes down when you are reading?

I dont know if i express good enough: I want a post page. With a add in the beginning of the sidebar side, static, in the up side. And just below that add, one smart sidebar (with social counters, blocks, etc…) which goes down keeping always the right side “busy”. But the Add is staying in the up side.

Sorry for all the wall of text, and sorry for my poor english.
Thanks in advance. I really hope for a positive solution for the point 1 🙂

Hi

First we would like to thank you for your kind words, we really appreciate your feedback.

1. Mobile theme was intent to display a very simple version of each page, that’s why there is no support for shortcodes. Unfortunately there is no way to keep the mobile theme active only for posts, sorry. It is simpler to leave it inactive if you want a more complex homepage and hide the sidebars from posts using css. The code will be this one:

@media(max-width: 768px){
.td-main-sidebar {
display: none!important;
}
}

2. This happens because the code from theme panel applies after the one from style.css. When the page loads the browser call the style.css then the custom code generated by the theme. To avoid that delay you can insert any custom css directly in style.css file, like this will be applied faster: http://screencast.com/t/DGiO8j434 You can also remove the code which generate the unwanted icons from td_module_single.php: http://screencast.com/t/7WQFRQpQ0 – http://screencast.com/t/irISkSPT

3. Indeed is not recommended to add google ads in smart sidebar but unfortunately current implementation won’t allow content above smart sidebar, sorry.

Thanks!

Thanks for your dedicated answer 🙂

1- The problem is, that i want (obviously) the sidebar in the desktop version. But i dont want it on the mobile version.
The code you provided will delete the sidebar everywhere, right? I want the clean version of the post pages ONLY in mobile. Is that possible?

2- Thanks, ill do that for sure 🙂
