Can you assist me with getting the template we've set up to work on a mobile phone?
The site we're working on is here:
[www.thedebateboard.com]
I've set everything up on a desktop, but now have someone telling me it's not looking the same at all on a mobile phone. I've loaded the page in a responsive design tester and see that all my template styling is not applied and everything is showing with default settings on the phone.
I am seeing a folder within the emerald template called mobile, so I assume I should be looking there. But it's been so long ago that I set this up, I'm not remembering the process. Note that I built this site several years ago, but it was sitting unused for a long time. We decided to re-launch it today, so we're getting new feedback from users now. I just need a brief refresher on customizing the template and then instructions for how to do it for mobile displays. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

You have several issues with your site, some comes from phorum.
1) On the create a new account page.
Click in the username box. I get a warning password is not secure.
Inspecting I find that it is linked to an URL that is accessed by http, and not https.
All modern browsers, and the internet itself treat http and https as separate resources with their own domain name.
adding a www . in front of mywebsite . com, is treated by some hosts as a different web site or unconfigured.
You need to go through the code, and change http : \\ to https : \\ every where you can locate it.
If you are on a nix server, write a redirect to https : \\ in the .htaccess file.
In the admin General Settings / File/Path Settings put in ... https : \\ www . mysite/ myforum
ajax and java script are old and have http paths embedded. (can't advise you on the fix yet)
2) The mobile template has not been looked at by a developer in probably ten+ years.
It is missing some parts.
" /mobile/profile.tpl" does not exist "
" /mobile/register.tpl" does not exist "
