It might take me some time to tweak this plug-in, but hopefully it with help all of those visitors who use their phone almost more than the computer. It should automatically switch format & themes if you view the site on your phone. If it fails to switch, there is a manual link at the bottom of each page.

Site Update – comment box fixed

I was contacted by a friend who wanted to post a comment. But there was no comment box on the page. Searching WordPress forums, I found that there are conflicts with some plug-ins and various themes. My conflict was CKeditor. This HTML plug-in for enhancing the WYSIWYG interface. CKeditor works great, but the conflict is unacceptable. My solution if I need the extras within CKeditor , is just to turn the plug-in on or off as needed. Keeping it off as default.
