WordPress PDA & iPhone

WordPress PDA plugin enables the wordpress blog viewable for PDA and iPhone browsers. It is really simple plugin which detects the browser agent and loads a simple theme on fly. The plugin comes with a theme folder which acts like normal theme with all the functionality of wordpress theme.

The plugin doesn’t have any advanced option to control. If you want to customize you can do it with the theme files.

Installation of this plugin is simple and straight forward. Just extract the files in you wordpress plugins folder. And in the admin activate the plugin

Once you activate the plugin you will not be seeing any magic in your admin menus or any trace of this plugin :-) . To see this plugin in action you have browse your site using a pda. I have installed the plugin in my blog and this is how it looks from a pda browser.

  6. Looks like the plugin is showing some pages that are password protected and the like. Is there any way to keep the plugin from showing those at all?

  8. From my testins, I'm not sure it supports the latest wordpress 2.9.1 perfectly. WPtouch Version: 1.2.8 on wordpress 2.9.1 - each time you hit the 'home' button a extra title bar appears on the home screen on the iphone browser. In fact Every time you hit 'home' button you get another one added and they fill up the screen! If you refresh the page they go away, thankfully.
