Question by justbill: How do I fix this html code for a mobile redirect in WordPress?
Rich now I have my site set up with the regular site in the main root domain (www.mysite.com) and the mobile version in a subdomain (m.mysite.com). I have the main wordpress site in a folder named “wordpress” on my server and I altered the index.php with the code below, but it currently can only redirect to http://m.mysite.com no matter what the person typed in to begin with i.e. if they enter www.mysite.com/contact on their phone, they get redirected to m.mysite.com and not m.mysite.com/contact
Is there any way to fix this so they get redirected to the duplicate mobile version of whatever URL they enter but at the m. subdomain?
I got the instructions for the redirect here: http://mobility.mobi/showthread.php?22-Auto-detecting-PC-Mobile-and-then-Redirecting
and here’s the index.php code in root folder:
$ mobile_browser = '0';
if(preg_match('/(up.browser|up.link|mmp|symbian|smartphone|midp|wap|phone)/i',
strtolower($ _SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']))){
$ mobile_browser++;
}
if((strpos(strtolower($ _SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT']),'application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml')>0) or
((isset($ _SERVER['HTTP_X_WAP_PROFILE']) or isset($ _SERVER['HTTP_PROFILE'])))){
$ mobile_browser++;
}
$ mobile_ua = strtolower(substr($ _SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],0,4));
$ mobile_agents = array(
‘w3c ‘,’acs-’,'alav’,'alca’,'amoi’,'audi’,'avan’,'benq’,'bird’,'blac’,
‘blaz’,'brew’,'cell’,'cldc’,'cmd-’,'dang’,'doco’,'eric’,'hipt’,'inno’,

‘wapr’,'webc’,'winw’,'winw’,'xda’,'xda-’);
if(in_array($ mobile_ua,$ mobile_agents)){
$ mobile_browser++;
}
if (strpos(strtolower($ _SERVER['ALL_HTTP']),’OperaMini’)>0) {
$ mobile_browser++;
}
if (strpos(strtolower($ _SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']),’windows’)>0) {
$ mobile_browser=0;
}
if($ mobile_browser>0){
header(‘Location: http://m.mysite.com/’);
} else {
/**
