Useful tip for fellow bloggers – passing it on…..

I just thought I would pass on a little tip I picked up from another blogger.

Apparently it seems that folks reading your posts on their iPad (lucky things) don’t automatically see your posts as they appear on your site – instead they get the ‘mobile view’ version.  This is because WordPress has a default setting on your blog called OnSwipe – which means that readers are only treated to this ‘rather rubbish’ and limited version of your post.

It seems only right that if we put in the work to write a blog then the readers should be able to read it in all it’s glory. The good news is they can, and this can be achieved by making a wee (and very easy) change on your blog settings.

I therefore pass on the credit to Kana of Kana’s Notebook for pointing this out.  Not only am I grateful to her for highlighting this but this canny lady also provides us with straightforward instructions on how to disable these pesky mobile settings. (Just click on the Kana’s Notebook link above and it takes you straight to it).

Thank goodness Mature Student Hanging in There changed her settings - that mobile view was rubbish

Happy blogging folks. :wink:

  4. Yes, very handy – thanks – i really don’t like the WordPress mobile ‘swipe’ version, it’s very slow loading and clunky. Top tip :-)
