    I looked through posts regarding DNN mobile, but it seems most of them deal with the Enterprise or Pro versions of DNN. The community version does not seem to have a howto guide for setting up a mobile version.

    Most recommend using a module, 51Degrees.mobi, that detects the device and redirects to a new portal or page. Had anyone used this module and if so, which option did you use; redirect to portal or unique device page set up. If you used a redirect, how did you share content across portals?

    Thanks for any advice,
    Dan

    Dan,

    Some combination of the recent tutorial on responsive skin design and this -- http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources...n-6-1.aspx -- might get you started.

    The 51degrees stuff is built into both the Community and Professional editions of DotNetNuke, but I think that there are some more addon capabilities in the Pro version.

    Thanks Joe,
    I'm going to try the route of setting up specific mobile pages with a different skin and use the redirect api to serve them up.
    I'll post progress on this method.
