<p><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Dear Nick, Andrew, List,</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">it's true: All in all it's a shame, what eprint is offering at this point - just thinking about mobile usage, Google ranking, old-school web1.0 design...</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">We're also working on a mobile version of eprints 3.3.13. After looking around, we finaly decided to use David McElroy's "Bootstrap for Eprints" and mix it up with some nice solutions from </font><a href="https://github.com/UEL-LLS/eprints-UEL-Docklands"><font size="2" face="sans-serif">https://github.com/UEL-LLS/eprints-UEL-Docklands</font></a><font size="2" face="sans-serif"> and some new selfcoded features. For some other reasons we'll 'go live' in March.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">I personaly think, EPrints Bootstrap theme is a good way, that it's worth to go. But in the end it should be a default core-function to manage things like that. </font><br>
<br>

<font size="3" face="Calibri">Hi Nick,</font><br>
<br>
<font size="3" face="Calibri">Unfortunately, an "out-of-the-box" EPrints instance is not optimised for mobile. The UI is not responsive and in order to make EPrints mobile-friendly, you need to use a responsive framework like Bootstrap, Foundation, or Skeleton. There is an EPrints Boostrap theme available, which you can download </font><a href="https://github.com/eprintsug/bootstrap"><font size="3" color="#0000FF" face="Calibri"><u>here</u></font></a><font size="3" face="Calibri"> - conversely, you can also enable it via the EPrints bazaar.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="3" face="Calibri">Having worked with the Bootstrap theme before, you will likely want to customise it further as many of the elements have the traditional Bootstrap look and may not be in line with your institution's branding. Also, because some of the changes made by the theme rely on JavaScript manipulating HTML elements and CSS, there is a risk that it could cause a mobile browser to slow down.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="3" face="Calibri">I hope this helps - feel free to get in touch if you have any other questions.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="3" face="Calibri">Thanks!</font><br>
<br>
<font size="3" face="Calibri">Cheers,</font><br>
