Hi

I was just thinking about making a mobile friendly version of the website I'm working on. The idea I had was to make different skins for specific devices. I may be overthinking this, but I was just thinking, using the DNN API (and possibly the built in redirection system), would it be possible to change the portal skin depending on the detected device within DNN6? The other thing too is making sure that all pages in the site get their skin changed through the API call (but admin would be untouched, as admin side stuff would only be done on a desktop PC).
I would guess it would be some C# code to use the API, but I was just wondering if this would be possible to do?

Any ideas, suggestions will be great :)

Thanks,
Igor

DNN uses a redirect, allowing you to provide dedicated pages for mobile clients. Besides, you may modify your skin according to the size of the device.

Just thinking on it further, it seems like I would either have to change the skin to be responsive/adaptive to the device its being viewed on, or create a minisite just for mobile and use the redirector to go to the minisite when a device is detected.

Just wanting to see if there were other options out there :)
(and what other people may have come up with)
