No doubt you have heard about google penalising sites for not being mobile friendly, if you haven't I'd be very surprised...
Have you any plans to implement this?

its not something that a non tech savvy might know about but it could have consequences as far as the forum goes and that might interest non tech people I guess!

Basically google introduced a new penalty for sites that are not mobile friendly, so if these sites don't adhere to these new rules then they will not get as good search results as mobile friendly sites would do.

A mobile friendly site basically consists of a different layout which is easier to navigate on your phone or tablet.

The reason I'm raising the subject is because I haven't heard admin mention it and it could cost the forum in the long run with less visitors and search visibility.

Hope that helps!
