I feel like I have tried everything to get a link at the bottom of my mobile site to allow mobile users to “view full site” ….How do I go about doing it in Vantage Premium?

Hi Carson
Thanks for running Vantage.
You can disable the Vantage mobile menu under Appearance > Theme Settings, there is however no functionality in the theme to handle a desktop and mobile version side by side. You might consider the Jetpack Mobile Theme for this:

Thanks for your quick response. I tried Jetpacks mobile version, but it is so UGLY! I love the mobile vantage site! I have the resolution set so that an iPad in portrait is the mobile site, but in landscape is the full site so that iPad users have the option, but I guess I have to leave phone users out. Is there a way to add a footer for only tablet users to see that says rotate tablet for full site or anything like that? I didn’t know if you could use a
in a range between resolutions so that only tablet users would see it. I’m still fairly new to coding.
For sure, you can target a start and end point in terms of resolution. This is a helpful post on CSS Tricks:

You could link that to a div in the footer and just display: none; for other resolutions. That’s an idea.
I added a div into the parts/footer.php file. That link was super helpful! I was able to set several stipulations so that it only displays for certain screen sizes in portrait orientation. What i’m afraid of is that when I update Vantage Premium, i’m going to lose the div I placed. Is there a better way to do it?
You’d need to run a child theme and place /parts/footer.php in the child theme to make it upgrade safe.

Here is how your child theme style.css might look:
/* Theme Name: Vantage Child Author: SiteOrgin Template: vantage Version: 1.0 */ @import url("../vantage/style.css");I just added the div to the theme settings > general > site information text and left the custom css. Thank you so much for your help!
Super, glad to hear you found a solution. Thanks for sharing.
