--- Comment #5 from Matt Walker <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #4) > You want to show a banner on the desktop site (en.wikipedia.org and friends) > when viewed in a mobile phone? Nope -- we want to show a banner on the desktop site to a desktop user who has previously used the mobile interface. > Could you clarify "Removing the filtering comes at the expense of potentially > exposing users to banners that don't work particularly well on small > screens." With CentralNotice not filtering; true mobile users who choose to use the desktop site may be presented with a banner that doesn't work on small screens - e.g. the buttons are too small to hit with a finger. > Does this effect the mobile site (en.m.wikipedia.org and friends) in anyway? No. Only the desktop site (and the transition of a desktop user between that and the mobile site and back.) > I'm also unclear how this effects the VisualEditor roll out... (you mention > this in the CentralNotice fix). VE is only involved because we spotted it with a VE banner (they want to show to everyone so we're getting lots of interesting CN bugs.) > The stopMobileRedirect cookie exists for a reason - if a user of the mobile > site wants to see the desktop site this stops them from being redirected on > every visit. Yep, understood. The feature request is more to not return 'desktop' devices to the desktop site after having viewed the mobile site with a stopMobileRedirect cookie. > We could only set the stopMobileRedirect cookie if the user is on a mobile > phone but this is messy and I don't see what value the work put in to achieve > this would gain. Does anything really need to change in MobileFrontend now? Meh; don't know. This is an edge case... It's more related to if we have more things that are device dependent using the cookie to determine if someone is on a big device or not. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
