More info..

I can view posts, category pages, etc on my iPhone in the WP Touch theme if I type in the URL. But when I click on ‘home’ or type in just my URL: http://samsmojo.com it comes up with the error message.

Seems like a pretty simple error.

Can you help please?

Thanks,

Sam

I am having the same issue.

Error message is:

“Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in /home/samsmojo/public_html/wp-includes/general-template.php on line 513″

This is very strange as the plug-in was orinally working for me but now stopped.

Actually, I mis-read this suggestion – what we’d like to do is force the plugin to load the menu as the home screen, instead of a particular page or post. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks! WPtouch is designed for touch mobile devices, and doesn’t translate well on desktops. We’ve had that request from lots of people but it’s not really in our interest to do something like that.

I’d love to do EXACTLY the same thing. Any ideas?

WPtouch is a fantastic plugin, would it be difficult to add the ability to switch between the full and WPtouch theme on the desktop? I’m thinking a button that would let a visitor use the WPtouch theme as a ‘turbo’ light mode to view the site faster in safari, firefox or IE, but still show the default heavier theme to new visitors.

Yup. Enable developer mode in safari’s settings and then use the user agent switcher to select iPhone.

Is there a way to force the WPtouch theme to appear in Safari on a mac?

I am having an issue with the plugin. It allows me to see how many comments there are and leave a comment but it won’t expand to show the comments. I am not sure if this is due to the W3 Total Cache plugin.

Ok i’ve solved my problem.
There is an icompatibility with “Share on Facebook” plugin.
With “Share This” and Exclusive mode enabled all works fine.

The site is not yet public.
From my iPhone (3.1.2) all is working fine except a little thing.
On the post list item, if you click on the “expand button” on the right, it shows snippets of include javascript code for sime object (for example the “share” button script).
If you click on the post item title it shows the full posts and all javascripted object correctly rendered.
Can be fixed ?

WPtouch rocks! So nice, so easy.

Is there a way to add a bit of text in the header area? Or have the menu/tags/categories drop down be automatically exposed when the page is loaded?

Our site is based around pages, but we use posts for our blog, to discuss our products, and to format the home page. That said, when people visit our site using WPtouch it isn’t obvious that links to our pages are in the drop down.

So, we would like to be able to make it obvious that the items in the drop down exists. We would be happy to have either text that we can edit to state something like ‘Blog Posts. Tap the Arrow for the Menu’ or have the menu exposed when the page is loaded.

Thanks, Hal

Fantastic job on the plugin.
Question about adsense. Iphone users see the google ad nicely. But even though I’ve added several series s60 compatabilities the Nokia E71 does not show adsense. It would be nice if all phones, such as E71, could show the ads just as the iphone does. Any suggestions?
Any reason why other phones which you add to the list of supported devices would not show adsense? You can see where the space has been created for these ads, but no adds. Again, no such problem using the Iphone.

Thanks,

Best regards.

I’m having issues uploading the custom-icons. It says that it will create the folder for me, but I get:
There seems to have been an error.
Please try your upload again.
The text says “If an upload fails (usually it’s a permission problem) create the folder yourself using FTP and try again.”. Where does it WANT the folder to be, so I can create it myself and fix the permissions?
