XF 1.1 Xenforo Forum not responsive, please help!!!

[THN]

Hello everyone!

I'm quite new in this forum and I need your help! For a start, I'm not a technical person but here is my problem.

I am in the process of redesigning my website to be reponsive but unfortunately my programmer is struggling quite a bit to integrate the Xenforo forum (version 1.1.3) to the main site. Presently, the main site is reponsive but the forum is not! It does not diaplay at all on mobiles as I guess it is static. Please kindly suggest to me the best approach to make my Xenforo forum display in a responsive manner in conformity with the rest of the site.

Thank you very much for contributing.

Cheers!

XenForo is responsive out of the box in 1.2.

This resource may help: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/responsive-design.2193/

Which version are you running?
Definitely not 1.3 as your prefix would suggest.

Xenforo forum (version 1.1.3)

and as Brogan say 1.2 responsive ^_^

I guess I am on 1.1.3; please how can I ungrade to a reponsive version without losing any custom data? Please kindly help me!

 

[Paul B]

You need to update to XenForo 1.2.

Or install or create a custom responsive style.

Thanks Bragon for your swift reply. Please do you mean I should download the 1.2 version from my Xenforo account now? If yes, do I have to redo all my custom codes on the new version downloaded or will it be transferred automatically? I am so sorry I am not a tech person and the programmer I engaged is defintely struggling with the integration. D you know any competent person who can help me please?

You need to read this thread: http://xenforo.com/community/thread...nt-information-and-actions-to-be-taken.56027/

1.2 is a big update.

the programmer I engaged is defintely struggling with the integration.

You should consider getting someone else; anyone with a modicum of knowledge should be able to sort it.

Thank you, Brogan. I will have a look at the link and revert as soon as possible.

 

[THN]

But please Brogan, which version should I download for the reponsive design: 1.2.0 or 1.2.4? Please kindly advise!

 

[Paul B]

Download the latest version.

 

[THN]

Thank you, Brogan.

Thank you, Brogan.

But be SURE to read the resource thread that @Brogan linked you to. There ARE some things you have to do before upgrading.

Ok Tracy, thanks for writing. As I don't have any add-ons, are there still some other things to do before upgrading? Just asking?

 

[TPerry]

If you are using no add-ons and not using a custom style then you should be good to go. But as normal practice it's always a good idea to back up your DB and your forum structure before performing an upgrade.

Tracy, thanks for your quick response. Yes, I've got only a custom style and I will let my programmer know about what you recommended before proceeding with the upgrade.

 

[THN]

Please I have trying to upgrade my forum software and it keep saying ''The board is currently being upgraded. Please check back later''. Do you know what this meansor what what should I do, please?

 

[Paul B]

You need to navigate to the /install path and complete the upgrade.

 

[THN]

Thank you Brogan. I will talk to my programmer and revert.

 

[THN]

My forum was recently upgraded but I am not quite sure which version I am now on. Is there any simple way to confirm the current version of my forum, please? Thanks.
