Dirty Butter Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 On our kurouto/mobile skins estates site I have a link in the Desktop/Mobile main.php for changing back and forth between them. <a href="http://dirtybutterestates.com/index.php?display_mobile=1" >MOBILE VIEW</a> <a href="http://dirtybutterestates.com/index.php?display_mobile=0" >DESKTOP VIEW</a> Now Google is asking for (not yet requiring) a mobile url for each product, as well as the desktop normal url. Is there a way to accomplish that until CC6 comes out with a stock responsive skin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Do we yet know how Google is keeping the two display modes separate? Can we assume Google is keeping a separate log for Product-A on a desktop page versus Product-A on a mobile page? Perhaps having a specifically named site_map file for each display type? Perhaps having a header tag:<link rel="mobile" href="{$CANONICAL}?display_mobile=1" /> Perhaps having a subdomain: mobile.storename.com where the .htaccess file rewrites that to storename.com?display_mobile=1 I am at a loss on how to proceed until I get more information about how Google is going to manage the distinction. I see code in the GUI class that attempts to match the mobile device's user agent string and if a match is found, will deliver the mobile skin as default. So, I am not completely understanding why there is a frustration until CC6's 'responsive' skins are published. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Butter Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 You've probably already seen this, but if not maybe it will help. https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/188494?hl=en I see code in the GUI class that attempts to match the mobile device's user agent string and if a match is found, will deliver the mobile skin as default. So, I am not completely understanding why there is a frustration until CC6's 'responsive' skins are published. If this is the case for kurouto, I don't think I need the mobile_link. I don't have a smart phone, so I didn't know it did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 The page at that Google link has way too much information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Butter Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 I'm not going to worry about it, as I didn't realize the CC gui.class had user agents code built in. That should take care of it. Thanks for that information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
