Minusbaseline doesn't appear as a mobile theme

jwrw

I've installed this under Vanilla 2.6 and it appears as a desktop theme only not a mobile theme.

@jwrw

try add

$Configuration['Garden']['MobileTheme'] = 'minusbaseline';

to /config/config.php

Well I found the fix i'm feeling smart:
Added:
"isMobile": true,
to addon.json
Needed to delete the folder, refresh dashboard caché and upload again.

You are! The downside is that you will miss it by the desktop themes now.
There is no way to mark a theme as desktop and mobile theme as well

You mean I can't use it as desktop theme at the same time?
Maybe I don't understant well. I thought that you can't use a theme for desktop and mobile at the same time with Vanilla.

I have the default theme on desktop and Minusbaseline for mobile: https://talk.denysalmaral.com

@piXelicidio You can't do it from dashboard but you can set it by hand in conf/config.php by editing the lines

$Configuration['Garden']['Theme'] = 'yourtheme';
// Some lines here...
$Configuration['Garden']['MobileTheme'] = 'yourtheme'; 

change the values by the theme folder name. Simply put the same value on both.
Vanilla needs two themes settings. One for mobiles devices and one for desktop in theory. So if you come on your forum with a smartphone, it will bring you the MobileTheme one and on a computer the Theme one.

@piXelicidio: I should have explained in more detail what I was speaking about. As a theme developer you cannot create a theme that will be displayed as an option in the desktop themes and in the mobile themes as well.

Since the currently activated theme shows up in either section, it is possible as soon as you have set a theme to be the normal and the mobile theme in your forum. And as K17 said, you can do that by editing the config.

But if you switch back desktop and mobile theme, you will experience, that your current theme shows up either as a desktop option or a mobile option, but never in both sections (except it is the current chosen theme).

Yes I know: slightly irritating. And you already have mastered to set the theme as you wanted it to be so in the end there is no need to read all this

Is this an intended design "feature" or is it a bug (regardless or the severity of it)?
