This is odd, I installed and set everything up just fine. (works great!)

I then set up iphone. as a subdomain and it worked fine.


I then decided to setup m. (instead of being device specific) and set that subdomain up exactly the same as the iphone. subdomain but for some reason when i look at my site on the iphone using m. it no long uses the correct style.

Any ideas? If I deselect 'Redirect to domain' it looks fine.

Thanks

Could you send your MJ config file administrator/components/com_mobilejoomla/config.php to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ?

OK. Issues that I've found are:
1. You setup m.***.com as mobile domain for each of 4 markups. It's incorrect because MobileJoomla cannot chose markup by domainname in this case.
2. You setup www.***.com as a homepage for all mobile devices. In this case any mobile device (iPhones only in your case because of redirect is disabled for other markups) will be always redirected to this page and user will not be able to visit other pages.

Thanks for the pointers...

I think I understand, I switched the redirect off for the other sites and now it works fine on my iphone iphone.

What I'd like to have happen is if you visit my site on any phone it uses the m. domain and the appropriate style sheet. IS that possible or does this require a different subdomain for each device.

Thanks again,

So is it not possible to have iphones and others types of OS use the same m.subdomain?

No, in current version it's impossible. The problem is that "subdomains" in MobileJoomla are used both to redirect and to determine type of device. Maybe it will be improved in further releases.

But there is a workaround. It requires m.subdomain to be independent site on the same server (instead of just an alias) that is a full copy of main site. In this case you will use the same database (that is both sites will be identical), but will be able to modify MJ settings independently (and disable to use subdomains on m.subdomain).

OK - Thanks for the help - so I can use iphone.myname.com and pda.myname.com and others for other devices as it helps mobilejoomla apply the correct template - but not use the same one for all?
