Desktop/Mobile Front Page

[Anonymous]

Is it possible to display a different front page (homepage) on smart phones as compared to desktop and tablet?

Hi @ryanmaler, you can use create some conditional logic using wp_is_mobile
ref url
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_is_mobile

example

function mobile_home_redirect(){
    if( wp_is_mobile() && is_front_page() ){
        include( get_template_directory() . '/home-mobile.php' );
        exit;
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'mobile_home_redirect' );

with the above function you just need to create file with name home-mobile.php inside the child theme folder which contain the page template what you want to use for mobile devices.

@vapvarun Sounds like exactly what I’m looking for. I’m going to play around with the template a bit. Thanks Varun.

@vapvarun I have one question. How do I specify which wordpress page I want to show as the mobile homepage?

@vapvarun never mind Varun. I decided to go a route using visual composer’s nift row hiding feature to hide desktop items and show mobile items. I may revisit this if the visual composer route does not pan out. Thanks

no issue, those are just minor code edits to display any pages as front page
