Using mobile theme: Smart Lists are awkward

Posted in: Newspaper

I have the mobile theme plugin activated. When viewing a post that uses the Smart List feature, instead of mirroring the Smart List template that I selected, it shows a gallery where the user has to click “next” before they see the next item in the smart list.

They can’t just scroll down through the list.

The problem is that since there’s text before the smart list begins, the page is refreshed every time the “next” button is pressed and the page resets back to the top – the gallery is now out of view and the user must scroll back down again to see the next item in the smart list.

Note: I’m using a smart list template that lists each item one after another, I do not have a gallery option set but the mobile theme is using a gallery template for the smart list anyway.

It would be much easier for the user to just scroll down through the list, rather than clicking next every time.

I noticed there is a mobile section on each page, so I could format the list differently, except the smart list is on posts where there isn’t an extra section to format the post just for mobile devices.
