    Default Creating a mobile version of website - HELP!

    Hi,
    My knowledge of zencart and php is very basic but I am trying to create a mobile version of my website and have the following questions:

    1. Where do I put the m. file - in the same place as my index.php one or somewhere else on the server?

    2. Do I call it m.mydomain.php or m.index.php

    3. I have stock control activated on my main website and am worried if people were buying through a mobile version of the site it may affect this, also have over 500 products on the site so converting all these and re-entering on a mobile site would not be an option. Is there a way to create a mobile version but people would still buy from the main full one (or to link the stock/products together on both)?

    4. Would it be possible to create a basic page mobile version and link to the faq, products etc on the main website to save having to duplicate all the info already created on there?

    Sorry if these are basic or obvious questions. I have had a search of the forum and also checked my zen manual but cannot find this information.

    Thanks for any help.

    Why don't you just download and install one of the responsive template packages in the plugins section of this site?

    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    Would a responsive template only create the new minimal layout etc for mobiles/tablets etc or would this change my entire website desktop layout too? I have spent years customizing the general zencart layout and would not like it to change the way it looks on a pc.

    Cheers
