Topic: Homepage mobile testing

Hello everybody,

the website wasn't adapted to be used on mobile phones phones in the past. I spent a lot of time to change this and want to ask if anyone with a mobile phone or tablet can test the changes. Some things are still not like it should be on mobile phones, but a start is done. The main change for now is to make the basic site work on mobile phones at all and to have a solution for all the information we provide on the main site, like the menu on the top (beside the logo), the latest posts box and the main menu. Some sub pages, like Maps or screenshots are not adapted right now. Forum topics may need also some love but in general this is working.

So if you have a mobile phone or a tablet please test the current changes on https://alpha.widelands.org and give some feedback here in this topic.

Thanks in advance!

I am not sure whether I remember things correctly, but it seems mobile access has defintily improved.

If you load the current page https://www.widelands.org on a smartphone you always have to zoom in and scroll the page around to reach certain links. At least this was my experience with the old layout.

all GUI elements are reachable except the upper right items. Profile, messages, scheduler and logout should be single logo based buttons rather then classical textbased hyperlinks.
profile - person icon
messages - envelope
scheduler - clock
logout -- exit door

Probably each in a row f it's own? I'll take a look.
