Why AMP?

One of the major issues with mobile version of Stories of Sandeept, as shown by Google PageSpeed Insights, is its low speed on loading. To address the issue, I installed the AMP plugin, which loads the site faster.

How does the AMP version look?

The AMP version is now the default view when you first open the website on your mobile browser.

You can opt out of the AMP view by clicking on the “Exit mobile version” at the end of the webpage.

Exiting the mobile version takes you to the original view (the noAMP version).

New Issue

The current theme, Lovecraft, does not seem to support AMP. That’s why Figure 1 has left-aligned images. I tried using new themes, but they didn’t support the categorised pages. I guess it’s because I had modified the functions.php file on my current theme. I think I should look into it. You can expect a new theme by next week, which will probably increase the website’s speed on mobile.
