Using Desktop Theme On Mobile

Hi guys, I have the bootstrap theme available for my desktop view but don't know how to also use on mobile as it is a responsive one. Can someone teach me how to use a responsive template on both desktop and mobile, the mobile themes look wack (sorry to say) :(

    Go into your config.php and find the Configuration for the mobile theme, replace the default with the name of theme you are using the same as for the desktop.

    As @vrijvlinder stated, you can just set the $Configuration['Garden']['MobileTheme'] to the same thing as your$Configuration['Garden']['Theme'] value. That will cause Vanilla to use the same mobile and desktop theme. That alone does not a make a theme "responsive" though, the theme itself needs to consider various device sizes and dimensions and make the appropriate considerations.

    That will require a lot of custom CSS of your own, or custom theme that has already done that. If you would like to see an example of a Vanilla Forum that does make these considerations, and provides a good experience on desktop and mobile I'd recommend you take a look at the design of the recently launched Ovarian Cancer Canada forum.

    Thank you sir
