MyAffiliates mobile responsive Affiilate Front End

MyAffiliates offers a mobile-responsive interface for its affiliate end users, such that the Affiliate front-end interface can scale on smaller screen devices like mobile phones and tablets.

The new mobile-responsive theme is named 'RedClaw' as opposed to the non-responsive 'Snow' theme. 

Existing clients have the opportunity to request 'RedClaw' to be enabled by sending a request to support@myaffiliates.com

Any clients who have no Affiliate front-end skinning and branding applied to the 'Snow' theme will have an easy and smooth transition to 'RedClaw'.

However, clients whose customization was already done for the 'Snow' theme would need to have their CSS revisited so it is applicable to the 'RedClaw' theme.

For the most part, HTML customization will carry across to ‘RedClaw’, but clients may need to copy and revise any relevant CSS they had defined to ensure it presents ideally in the context of the new design. So the clients’ custom template files will be automatically loaded, but they will need to transfer their CSS rules from webroot/templates/default/styles/snow/custom.css to webroot/templates/default/styles/redclaw/custom.css (assuming these were placed in custom.css as we advise.)

Some programs may not have customized templates and just have defined CSS rules to change the presentation. Those rules are unlikely to be transferable to the ’RedClaw’ theme. So such clients would most likely need to define new rules that complement the ‘​​​​​​​RedClaw’ theme.

One can supply the _thm parameter in the front office URL for the program to specify the theme.
For example:

https://affiliates.yourfrontend.com/?_thm=snow
https://affiliates.yourfrontend.com/?_thm=redclaw

The effect of this 'preview' will wear off after an hour of inactivity. To remove the effect immediately, one can set the value _thm to nothing, and the original version (Snow) will be restored.
 
The preview option allows clients to assess the potential impact their front-end redesign would take under the 'RedClaw' theme, while still operating as 'Snow'.
