Help:Designing a mobile-friendly main page

Did you know that over half of the visits to Wikia are on a mobile device? This goes to show that it's incredibly important to make sure the pages on your wikia display well on mobile devices, as having a page that doesn't work well on mobile means that over half of the visitors of your wikia won't be able to read it properly. This also applies to main pages; having a main page that works well on desktop doesn't necessarily mean it works well on mobile, which could mean that a large amount of people will end up on a broken page when they visit your main page.

Checking if a page is compatible with mobile devices
It's very easy to check whether or not a page works well on mobile, including main pages. Simply edit the main page, hit the "preview" button and then select "Mobile" on the dropdown menu on top of the pop-up. This will show you exactly what the page looks like on an average mobile device, and will help you to determine what parts of your main page may not work well on mobile.
