Habitually Good

One of the nice things about the Admin Dashboard in WordPress is that it always shows information about select plugins, and earlier today, it was telling me about a plugin called WPTouch. Basically, simply by installing this plugin, you will be able to add iPhone support to your blog.

For me it worked in two clicks – one to install the plugin, the second to activate it. And if you have an iPhone, try visiting my site using it (if you are not already). Here’s what it looks like:

This plugin is great. From the control panel, it lets me tweak whether I want the view like above, or if I want to display the excerpt as part of the default view. It lets me configure the pages, choose various icons for the pages, upload my own icons, etc.

It even lets me specify AdSense and Analytics information so that it will serve my ads and also let me track the visitor information. The reason I need to specify it of course is because the plugin is not using my theme, but its own theme to render the iPhone website.

Its not without bugs – for example, as of now, even after specifying my publisher ID, I still don’t see any ads on the iPhone site. But, I am guessing things will sort themselves out. Else, I might have to dive into the plugin code.

But at the end of the day, its a great plugin.
