Hello stevemitchell,
As a mention, our mobile theme does not use the Visual Composer and therefore, all your pages which are created with this composer will not be rendered in your mobile theme. This is just the behaviour of this plugin. The mobile theme will show you only the Big Grid, your desired text -> when will be added in your Mobile Editor from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/yScETLv8a and the latest articles in the bottom of the page. So, please notice that the Big Grid will render you only the posts which are included in Featured category, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/stIfQqn0o Please notice that this is the goal for our mobile theme to be very fast and clear. If you are unhappy with this, you can disable it from the panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/ST8XuqHtyZh and then you will have the normal mobile responsive mode.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi Catalin
I find that the mobile theme is great for performance
impossible not to use it, you have done a great job
I saw that remove “featured” on front-page.php at the line
<div class=”td-container”>
<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[td_block_big_grid_mob_1 sort=”featured“]’); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
They are able to get into the mobile home a grid with the last three articles…
The problem is that they also are shown below in the “latest articles.”
You should just find a way not to show the first three items below in “last articles”
Thanks!
Hello Bintmusic,
Unfortunately, our mobile theme has been designed to use the featured sorting for Big Grid and the Latest sorting for Latest articles and never you will have the case with duplicated posts because the sorting method differs in this cases. So, if you have additional customizations through code, you will have to try to implement yourself the offset method to avoid the twice posts because as you can see, it is not a simple task and this involve custom work.
If you want to develop our theme through adding the new options and features and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services and also, we cannot provide support for your customizations.
Thank you for your understanding!
I understand that the mobile theme is supposed to be fast, but my entire site has a menu structure and navigation. I use pages for the main categories, and have crafted each of those pages to show specific content in particular ways.
How can I do this with the mobile theme? From what I can tell, it only displays the latest on the home page, and on other pages it is blank. I can’t use “Featured” because there are multiple choices.
Can I use short links or codes in the mobile theme box on particular pages to have them show a grid of articles from a particular category?
Or is the only option to use a new menu system just for mobile and point at category listings somehow that way? Or eliminate the menus altogether?
Hello stevemitchell,
Please notice that what you want to achieve it is not possible using our mobile theme because as you can see, this feature has been designed to be very basic as structure, just to be easy to use and fast. If you are unhappy with this mobile theme, I recommend you to disable the mobile theme feature and use only the mobile responsive version because this can be customized as you wish.
Thank you for your understanding!
Thank you, no problem at all. I just wanted to clarify how the mobile theme worked, and that it was a very different experience for end users than the standard theme. I have tested it and it is quite a bit faster, so there is still the possibility of using it without the navigation and categories that I use now, and with a different navigation menu, but there’s always the possibility that a user will get sent to one of the pages that exist and see a blank screen.
