    Exclamation VBForums not mobile friendly! Today Google's search favors mobile friendly sites!

    I just did a check using Google's Mobile-Friendly Test, and VBForums fails miserably:
    https://www.google.com/webmasters/to...w.vbforums.com

    It's all over the news that Google has changed it's algorithm today. So the next time the Googlebot does a crawl of VBForums and it's algorithm detects that it's not mobile friendly, VBForums' threads may get bumped back a few pages in Google search results, or maybe not show at all. These searches may apply for Desktops, not just mobile phone searches.

    Google's Mobile-Friendly Test page states that VBForums appears to use VBulletin, and gives a link to it's technical guide to help fix it's mobile problem:
    https://developers.google.com/webmas...m_campaign=MFT

    Hope the webmaster fixes this place. Hate to see VBForums slowly die due to not showing in Google search results.

    Mobile Friendly is being worked on as we speak
    Wi-fi went down for five minutes, so I had to talk to my family....They seem like nice people.
