Hello, I'm Guido from Italy.
I have a blog in serendipity.
The template is Mimbo, but Mimbo is not responsive.
How I can transform Mimbo in a responsive template?
Thank You
Guido

Re: Mimbo in responsive
Well, you would have to adapt Mimbo's styles using @media queries to make it responsive. Which, quite honestly, probably isn't worth the effort. Mimbo is pretty old, I assume it would take quite some changes to make it responsive.Guido wrote:How I can transform Mimbo in a responsive template?
Your best alternative as of now is to use one of the responsive themes available for serendipity. As of now, those are (as far as I know/are publically available in the order in which they were released):
- 2k11 (part of the core)
- resy (available on/through Spartacus)
- photo (available on/through Spartacus)
- clean-blog (available on Don's site)
- next (part of the core)
You best bet coming from Mimbo might be clean-blog or 2k11.

bartleby (also on spartacus) is responsive as well.
Re: Mimbo in responsive
Hello guys, i'm brand new here. I signed up because I also have a problem with Mimbo theme, it just looks like a complete mess on a smartphone, and certain tablets. So there is absolutely nothing I can do to make it responsive, like add some code? If I change to bartleby, can it somehow change my site layout and menus? I really don't want it to make fundamental changes to my site, as I like it the way it is, except for the responsive issue.
Re: Mimbo in responsive
That's because Mimbo is not responsive. It was designed and implemented long before responsive web design was a thing. You can obviously use a reponsive theme instead, but that weill definitely change the way your site looks. It's a different theme, after all.Jayfirms wrote:I signed up because I also have a problem with Mimbo theme, it just looks like a complete mess on a smartphone, and certain tablets.

Try 2k11 for now... or Clean Blog, which will be a core s9y theme pretty soon. I also have another responsive theme coming out you may like, but need another week or so to get it ready.
