Forum setting for cell phone formatting?

Hey on the forum I run there is a setting in the admin panel that allows me to set the forum so that cell phone browsers see the forum differently. It doesn't change the way it looks on the web with desktops and laptops, but it allows cell phones and other handheld devices to see the format in a way that is comparable to their screens and size.

Any plans or features that would allow that to happen with UC?

Thanks in advance,

I don't think anything needs to be adjusted. I have no problem viewing the forum on my galaxy note 3 or my kids Iphone.

Thanks!

hmm, on my droid the text is micro small and I have to zoom in to read anything and then - scroll side to side to read posts. Maybe it's my phone browser.

No matter what phone you have or settings we set, you will have top do that. If it wasn't formatted right, you would see only a section and then have to decrease the size .

Thanks!

Yes, I was saying that when visiting other forums using a smartphone, the browser will automatically be viewed in the 'mobile version' which is formatted for the screen size. Typically there is a module in the admin panel that allows you to make that adjustment.

no biggie

That is exactly what is happening and it is what is suppose to happen. It sounds like it is happening on your phone as well so we are good to go.

Thanks!
