How To Edit Blogger Mobile Template

I was surprised this morning when i visited a blog hosted on blogger with my mobile phone and got the mobile view displayed. Blogger launched it's mobile version about a couple of months back but only high end devices could be automatically detected and I decided to use a third party script from mobstac.

There has been a lot of improvement on the new blogger mobile template as it now detects a wider range of mobile devices including mobile browsers like Opera Mini. You can as well edit the new mobile template and select your desired blogger mobile theme:

-Log in to draft.blogger.com

-Click on the settings drop down and select Template

-Click the mobile template settings icon

-If you haven't enabled it before, select "Yes, show a mobile version of your current template"

- From here you can select from the available mobile theme.



I hope the option to edit mobile theme HTML will be made available soon as the current mobile themes are somehow limited in terms of functionality.

Google Adsense For Mobile

Google adsense for mobile displays on the mobile theme if you have added at least one of your google adsense ads through blogger widget. I didn't enable ads between posts but I saw one adsense for mobile unit when viewing this blog with an Android smartphone. It seems ads are only enabled for high end mobile devices as I couldn't see them when viewing through Opera Mini. Just like I said earlier, certain improvements need to be done to perfect this new, exciting feature.

This template comes with tons of customizations for this site and the links contained therein will always point back to here. you might have a hard time editing and removing the customizations as you have to do some HTML editing. I can give you a link to the original, unmodified one on which this template is built. http://www.premiumbloggertemplates.com/2011/07/fortune-premium-blogger-template.html

if you insist though, i might upload this later.

Ads will be shown in fully JavaScript supported phone/browser.
What if we add ads code in post contents? This way its visible in mobile version and we've more than one ads unit in mobile version!

Well I hope Google soon will add a better way to edit those default mobile themes.
