Simply display a different theme to your Apple iOS<\/a><\/strong> (iPod\/iPhone\/iPad) users.<\/p>\n\n

Another plugin to check out is WPtouch<\/a><\/strong>; but depending on your needs, it may be overpowered.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin becomes especially useful with WordPress-powered full-Flash websites. Since Apple has chosen to block Adobe Flash technology, your markets may require an HTML fallback.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Download the plugin (zip file).<\/li>\n
  2. Upload and activate the plugin through the \"Plugins\" menu in the WordPress admin.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    Why would I want to display a different theme to Apple iOS users?<\/dt>\n

    You may not. I honestly wouldn't unless I was producing a full-Flash website with WordPress as a backend.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Why not just use WPtouch?<\/dt>\n

    Try it! The free version does not currently support iPad, though, and I felt that it was overpowered for my needs.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Will this change the theme for other concurrent users as well, or just specific users?<\/dt>\n

    Theme switching is done independently for each concurrent user. You need not worry about non-iOS users seeing the alternate theme.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Will this work with any theme?<\/dt>\n

    Yes, but you may need to conform a few technical things. Continue reading for specific cases.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    My widgets and\/or menus are not appearing in my alternate theme. What's wrong?<\/dt>\n

    The internal WordPress id<\/code>'s must match in both themes for menus\/widgets to work consistently.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Can this plugin work with WP Super Cache?<\/dt>\n

    Yes. Check out this WPtouch article<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Umm, how\/where do I set what the alternate theme is?<\/dt>\n

    At this time, you will have to edit the plugin file itself on line 16. Put in the folder name of the theme. Eventually, I will create a proper UI.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Will this plugin work for WordPress version x.x.x?<\/dt>\n

    This plugin has only been tested with versions of WordPress as early as 3.2. For anything older, you'll have to see for yourself.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
