mobile joomla not displaying website properly

sucks
14 years ago
hello. I recently downloaded the mobile joomla plugin - didn't notice anything specific to configure. went online with blackberry storm 2 and only the footer of the page loads. Is there something simple I am not doing in order to show the actual content of the page and not just the footer.

website address - www.socialchangenews.com
using joomla 1.5
go daddy hosting - not the free hosting version

thanks for any suggestions and direction

Try, Components > K mobile joomla > settings > then go to the tabs
Smartphone (XHTML) and look down the left side until you find
component on home page and set it to (yes)
this may set the same parameter on the other tabs but look at them just to make sure, then save.

By the way, I looked at the site and I saw the menus as well as the footer.
Blackberry 9650

Iphone

Imode

I got the main site for the wap template

Older blackberries have proprietary browser (not webkit) and are known to be problematic. Maybe there is something on your site triggering the bug in a browser?

Thanks for the response guys. component for home page is set to yes for all tabs. I see what the problem is. when I redirected the landing page to any other page aside from my home page I see the content. The problem is with my template. it is a news template that is designed to display one article (the most recent) from each category - so this is why nothing except the footer comes up... because there are no actual articles on my home page - just previews of the latest articles on other pages.

I am using the ja teline template from joomlart - and the module that pulls the previews from other articles is called ja frontpage. thanks again for your help. I'll keep playing with it to see if I can work around this.

cheers

Can I ask how you are able to see this different versions of the website (pda, iphone,imode,...)? I searched for a firefox extension that could do it but it was only compatible for older versions?
-> i have no different subdomains for the website

Thanks

Firefox + UserAgentSwitcher plugin (addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59/) + some User-Agents from any database/log.

Thanks Denis, yes it's as you said.
I'm using ff 3.6.12
user agent switcher 0.7.2
wmlbrowser 0.7.25
XHTML Mobile Profile 0.7.25
Modify Headers 0.6.6

For MJ 0.9.8 I found that I could make new user agents to simulate each type of mobile.
