is there any way to show categories on mobile and discussions normal as index

Schryvers

The list of Discussions is my index page right now,

But i think the list is becoming too long to show on Mobile screens.

Is there any way to show the Category page on mobile as index? On my pc i just want to see Discussions as index.

Hook into the app startup and change the default controller if mobile is detected.

I, personally, think this is a bad idea, so I won't show you a working example.

Well, if its that hard, its not much needed..

hgtonight

You got me.

It isn't hard:

public function Gdn_Dispatcher_BeforeDispatch_Handler($Sender) {
  if(IsMobile()) {
    Gdn::Router()->SetRoute('DefaultController', 'categories', 'internal', FALSE);
  }
}

Still a terrible idea, imo.

Why would it be a terrible idea in your opinion?

Showing different content to mobile users is bad IMO. Mobile users want the same content. Don't do anything beyond making it fit in their viewport.

Personal opinion, ofc.

Schryvers

Thats true, and i decided that its bad to show them different contents. Some users are using both pc and mobile, and indeed they want the same content.

Nevermind, thanks for sharing your solution! @hgtonight
