WPtouch 1.9.3, iPhone 3.1 Updates
Sep 9 2009 • Written By Dale Mugford • 20 Comments

Today we’re excited that Apple has officially released OS 3.1 for iPhone  & iPod touch, bringing a few new features and several bug fixes.

WPtouch 1.9.3 was also released, and brings with it a new feature and several bug fixes as well.

In 1.9.3 you can now choose to disable Ajax comments as the default method for commenting. We think Ajax comments are great (especially on a mobile device), but they bring with them some issues, and don’t always work right on every install or with every other plugin, so we’ve added this feature as a failsafe for those who’ve been reporting issues.

Other bugs were fixed pertaining to stability and javascript, the admin, and more.

We wanted to get some of the lingering issues resolved before completing and releasing the Skins features, as well as languages support, both of which we feel we’re in the clear to add so look for those to come over the next little while.

As always you can leave feedback about any of our free, open-source WordPress plugins in our Support Forums.

    You’re not alone: iPhone users stingy with their ad clicks, says study

    Can you just clarify for me – this is a front-end reading plugin -yes ?

    Does it support writing and accessing the admin area on iPhone… that would be really nice…

    thanks.

    I have it installed. :)

    The web admin pages are the same as normal.

    Yes, it’s not for the admin but creates a mobile theme on the front end. If you want mobile admin checkout the iPhone / Mobile Admin plugin.

    i’d like to see an option for an alias or subdomain entry, which calls the plugin wether users are on mobile phone or not.

    I’ve added 2 lines of code for this:

    if ( strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'],”mobile.”) !== false ) $this->applemobile = true;

    I’ve started working on a Palm Pre skin so I’m definitely looking forward to those being released. I’m not terribly far along in it, given the thousands of other things I’m doing but it’s great to see this evolving. I’ll be giving the latest version a whirl but just so you know the previous version looks fine on the Palm Pre.
