Now of course, you can view any website on the internet, but I&#8217;m talking about a format that is especially made for the iPhone, so that your blog is very easy to navigate when using the iPhone, and you don&#8217;t have to zoom in, zoom out, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to do it:<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>If you have a recent version of WordPress&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>1.  Log into your Admin area<br \/>\n2.  Click on &#8220;Plugins&#8221; on the left<br \/>\n3.  At the top of the page, click on the &#8220;Add new&#8221; button next to &#8220;Manage Plugins&#8221;<br \/>\n4.  In the search field, type in &#8220;WPTouch iPhone Theme&#8221; and click the &#8220;Search Plugins&#8221; button<br \/>\n5.  In the search results, click on the &#8220;Install&#8221; text link all the way to the right in the row for the &#8220;WPTouch iPhone Theme&#8221; plugin<br \/>\n6.  After it is installed, click &#8220;Activate&#8221;.  If you don&#8217;t see the link to activate it, then click on &#8220;Plugins&#8221; on the left, scroll down the Plugins page, and click on the &#8220;Activate&#8221; text link next to the listing for the &#8220;WPTouch iPhone Theme&#8221; plugin<br \/>\n7.  Done!<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have a recent version of WordPress for your self-hosted blog (I highly suggest you update it so that you always have the latest version), then go <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/wptouch\/\" target=\"new\">here<\/a> to download the &#8220;WPTouch iPhone Theme&#8221; plugin, and read the instructions on how to manually install it.  It&#8217;s pretty easy to do.  All you have to know pretty much is how to FTP a file or folder.<\/p>\n<p>After you&#8217;re done, it should look like this:<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/wptouch.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/wptouch.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of my blog on an iPhone\" title=\"wptouch\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/wptouch.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/wptouch-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/wptouch-300x450.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/div>\n<p><!--adsense--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/services\/\">Los Angeles Computer Repair<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/services\/\">Los Angeles Computer Tech<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ianbrown.cc\/blog\/services\/\">Computer Repair Services<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just found out how to make any self-hosted WordPress blog iPhone compatible.
