Mint Forum

Actually, all that may be needed is to switch to a single column layout at 450px wide when an iphone acesses the site. Is there a way to make that possible?

but I don’t like single column on my pc, i like the columns to fill the screen. I would like to find a way (different login maybe? or just a peper that would change the settings when acessed with the iphone) to make this change hot swapable.

That would only be possible if Mint allowed for the option to create multiple user accounts, or profiles, for login. That way, say you’ve set-up two profiles to login and view — one for your desktop — one for your mobile device. Now, you can login to the account that’s appropriate to your device and those preferences will load accordingly.

I would imagine that would take a great deal of resources on Shaun’s end, however. But it’s an interesting idea moving forward, and in consideration of mobile device functionality.

Doctyper, I’ve rolled your modifications into a Pepper (so no changes need to be made to the base Mint installation) and emailed it to you to test out (no iPhone yet). With your permission I’d love to release it (credited of course) in the Peppermill.

Done and done.

This still acts a bit weird…like text overlapping for the title of each pane…Sometimes when I hit the back button, the panes dont show anything.

I disagree. I’m partial to iPhone in portrait mode.

I am new to this forum. I really dig Mint on iPhone. Would be nice to use fixed/absolute positioning on the menu and give the body a height, so that the top links remain in view like on the desktop. One drawback to this approach I have found, is that users will then need to do 2 finger scrolling as Safari on iPhone doesn’t scroll content within a div with overflow set to auto.

See loosestitch.com on iPhone for what i mean. (You will need to create an outline first)

Also, I am happy to help anyone interested in developing a Junior Mint like widget for iPhone. Where do I start? :)

I’m seeing the overlapping titles panes as well. ONLY on one of my sites. I’ve checked two of them side by side; settings are identical. Anyone know what’s up with this?

That did the trick. Thanks, Shaun!

Shaun, fyi, the iPhone pepper does not work on the iPod Touch because it has a different user agent.

The pepper’s class.php can easily be modified by changing iPhone to iPod on line 55 but could you maybe include detection for both user agents in a small update? Thanks!
