.htaccess Redirect visitors to a mobile/smart device version of your website
.htaccess
Scenario: I have a wordpress website and I want to point mobile visitors to the mobile version of this website I created.
Remember to change m.mysite.com to your domain
You will recognise the first section “# Begin WordPress” to “# End WordPress” as the first lines of the .htaccess code in every WordPress website.
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# prevent looping
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^m.mysite.com$
# if the browser accepts these mime-types, it’s definitely mobile, or pretending to be
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} "text\/vnd\.wap\.wml|application\/vnd\.wap\.xhtml\+xml" [NC,OR]
# a selection of user agent tests. Check for an updated more comprehensive list at the time you intend to use this code
