Different Themes on Desktop vs. Mobile--Help Please!

ScottG

Hello T@ggers. Along with @Sharon_is_SAM, I'm an Admin on the T@B forum but also help out over here on occasion. The other day, while trying to troubleshoot the mobile posting issue, I logged on to the mobile site for the first time and was surprised to see that it looks completely different from the desktop site.

So, have the mobile and desktop sites always been different? If not, can anybody identify when the change occurred? Thanks for any info or insight you can provide!

@ScottG: I've only been here about a year, but the desktop and mobile interfaces have always looked different to me.
If it matters, I'm running Chrome iOS app on an iPhone for mobile and Firefox on a Mac for desktop, although I'm not sure that makes any difference.

Thanks, @The_Rigger. Vanilla offers different "themes" that govern the appearance of the forum. The T@G and T@B desktops--and the T@B mobile site--all use an older theme called Bootstrap. However, somewhere along the line the T@G mobile site got switched to the newer Foundation theme. When and why shall remain a mystery for the time being, but it's likely we may need to transition everything to Foundation in the future as the older themes are no longer supported.
