Wordpress Mobile Pack

This plug-in takes a Wordpress.org-based site, and mobile-optimizes it. The back-end remains the same as Wordpress.org and is therefore easy to edit and upload content to. The desktop version of the site remains the same as well. What the plug-in adds is the ability for mobile viewers to see a website that is easy to navigate on a mobile handset. Auto-detection of mobile phones, conversion of widgets, and many more features are included.
