Mobile/SEO automatic switch

This feature is not working correctly.

Here is the symptom:

When visiting the site for the first time on a computer that has never visited the site, for a second it briefly displays the Full Version site (for computers) and then it switches to the Mobile Phone version and stays there until I click on the button on the top.

I think it shouldn't do this. Especially since I am using a computer to view the site.

I then deliberately cleared my cookies and cache of various computers I have here in the office and yep, the same situation occurs. It briefly shows the full site then it switches to the mobile view site. Once I click to view the full site, it won't occur again when I revisit the site, unless I clear the cache/cookies or use a computer that has never seen the site before.

I know you may not have visited my site, so can you check it yourself and see if it happens to you?

Andy suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I was able to figure out an alternative.

I was able to find another Mobile Detection Script and that one works great with your Mobile Themes. I no longer have the issue where PC users will get the mobile style and vice-versa.

I cleaned up the MOD to be easy to install with AutoMODand also included a different version for those that use Board3 Portal v.2.x -- since there is a code that affects each other if not done correctly.

So if you have Board3 Portal, then use the alternative version for install the entire MOD. Or if you plan to install the Portal at a later time, keep in mind that other version below tells you how to fix a certain code in the includes/session.php -- it's the last FIND/REPLACE command for that file in the install.

I suggest to uninstall the Mobile/SEO automatic switch version, you don't need to have both running. :)

I have the same problem here with some browsers sometimes and do not yet understand when it happens.
The other detection script includes pictures of the different phones etc.
I just hope that there was no copyright violation including this and decided not to install that.
So I would be glad to see someone posting a reply for M.O.B.'s original question.
