  I developed a website in Sitefinity 3.7.  the site works great.  The client wishes to reach to the mobile users by using another site completely designed for mobile users.  The mobile site will even be a different URL. 
  I am a web developer and not a coder.
  How do I set it up where when a mobile user goes to the regular site, they are automatically redirected to the mobile version at a different domain?  I received some help from asp.net but the recommendation was a lot of coding, additional files, and required a newer version of Visual Studio for me to recompile a DLL.  I do not wish to do that.  If there is an option in IIS or in the web.config/global.asax file that can do this, I'd rather go that route.

  Hi Robert Williams,
  
  You can try doing this from Global asax file. You can subscribe to the begin request and check if the request is coming from a mobile device:
  

  void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)

  {

      BeginRequest += new EventHandler(global_asax_BeginRequest);

  }

   

  void global_asax_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)

  {

      //check if request is coming from a mobile device and if so redirect to your mobile pages.

  }

  
  
  Kind regards,
