ktula.com is now “iPhone-enabled”
November 19th, 2007 by ktula
This may seem like an oxymoron. Why do I need to make my website “iPhone-enabled” when the Safari web browser on the iPhone is supposed to be “full internet browser” and not some watered down browser.
Even though iPhone has unquestionably the best phone-based browser, having a website designed to work with iPhone makes navigating the website a lot easier. I played with a WordPress plugin called iWPhone about a month ago but was not able to get it to work correctly. Specifically, after i had activated the plugin, visiting my website from my iPhone would result in a blank page and that would cause my customized theme to go back to the default WordPress theme. Not having much success with it, i decided to install another WP plugin WPhone that allows WordPress to be managed from iPhone. I love the WPhone plugin because it makes managing WordPress from the iPhone extremely easy. I don’t have to resize the screen in order to enlarge the text - everything is usable as is.
Come forward about a month later, i decided to give iWPhone another shot. When i could not get it to work earlier, i thought it was because there was no support for it in WordPress 2.3. After revisiting the iWPhone website, i realized that i had made a big mistake in the installation of the plugin. RTFM!!! After moving the directories to the proper place on my webserver, i am happy to say that the plugin is working perfectly!
