Where to Start?
Go to Template and Click on the Gear Icon below the Mobile Template. From the Dropdown opt for “Custom”, Preview the mobile template and Save it
Customizing the structure of your Mobile Template.
Blogger Templates are made up using Widgets.Blogger has added a new property(mobile) to the
tag. This property can take values ‘default', ‘yes', ‘no' or ‘only'.
And this property will determine how the widget will be rendered in the
mobile view.
The widgets that display on mobile by default are the following:
- Header
- Blog
- Profile
- PageList
- AdSense
- Attribution
If
you want to hide any of those, then use the property mobile='no' in the
Widget tag, and that widget would no longer appear in the mobile view.
For example I can hide the Attribution Gadget in Mobile view if I use
mobile='no' title='' type='Attribution'/>
If you want to display the non-default widgets in your Mobile view, then just set the mobile property to yes.
E.g.: this is the normal tag for the Blog Archive Widget
Now if you set the mobile property as
mobile='yes' type='BlogArchive'>
, then you should see the archive widget on your Mobile View(I didn't get it working).
If you want a widget to appear only in the mobile view, then you can set the mobile property to 'only'
mobile='only' title='' type='Attribution'/>
If I use this tag, the attribution gadget will disappear from my desktop view, and will appear only on the mobile view.
This code change will make the attribution widget disappear from your Mobile View.
Customizing the Look and Feel of your Mobile Template
Now
you can fully customize the looks of your mobile template. The body
element of the mobile template will be styled my the mobile class
Make sure that your template has:
So if you are good at CSS, you can use this class name to style your mobile template.
.mobile .date-header { text-decoration:underline; }
Alternate Widget Content on Mobile View
Once
you switch to the Custom Mobile Template, you might find that the
template is too huge to fit into a Mobile Browser. If you want, then you
can provide alternate content inside a widget.
e.g:
This will show a Powered by Blogger Text link on the Mobile View, and a Powered by Blogger image on the normal desktop view.
The condition
can
be used to check if the viewer is viewing your blog in a mobile browser
or not. You can use this conditional check creatively and give a
totally different look to the mobile version of the blog. Happy hacking,
and do share if you have created some really awesome mobile template :)
