    Howdy! Quick question that’s completely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when browsing from my apple iphone. I’m trying to find a template or plugin that
    might be able to fix this problem. If you have any recommendations, please share.
    Many thanks!

      Hi Leila,

      To make a site mobile friendly it must be ‘responsive’. You will need a new responsive template or theme, unfortunately a plug-in wont do it.
