Best WordPress Plugin for Blackberry, iPhone, iTouch, PDA Display

September 29, 2009 By

After viewing our HyperArts blog on my iPhone, I realized that there must be a WordPress plugin to display WordPress sites in a PDA-friendly way.

One site I found that talked about PDA-friendly blogs, FarFromFearless.com, touted the plugin iWPhone WordPress Plugin and Theme. However, when I tested it out on my iPhone my site displayed absolutely nothing. On the developer’s page, they only claim compatibility to v. 2.5 of WordPress, so apparently they’ve stopped developing this plugin.

After some searching on the WordPress Plugins site, I located the plugin WPtouch, and it works great.

Simply download the zip file, expand it and upload it via FTP to your plugins directory, then activate the plugin via the admin panel.

However, one thing I loved about the FarFromFearless.com blog on the iPhone was the incorporation of design elements, i.e., graphics and color:

Perhaps there’s a WordPress plugin that incorporates more look and feel in the website, but if so, I’m not aware of it. And I’m sure that how your WordPress site displays on PDAs depends on what theme you are using. Our blog uses the WordPress Fusion theme. So your mileage may vary.

    I envy you. Your blog is much better in content and design than mine. Can you tell me who designed it? Thanks in advance. Maks

      Thanks for the compliment! We used a theme called Fusion and then radically altered it. These days, though, we create custom WordPress themes ourselves.

    With more and more smartphones out there, it seems that now is the time to intergrate our websites so they are more friendly to those searching on PDA’s…

    I have to agree with other reader, who said that fusion has a great design. I like the lightness and cleanliness of this wordpress theme. As for the plug-in, I haven’t tried it since I don’t have blackberry or iPhone. I have only tried akismet so far.
