[RESOLVED] $wgLogo is working on the Desktop PC, but not on mobile.

Hi! I've finally (about) figured out MediaWiki's setup (it was extremely hard, but I can now use template infoboxes among other things) but I am still lost when it comes to certain things. The main problem I've been having is that my logo (as defined by $wgLogo) works on the desktop computer, but not on mobile devices. I have MediaWiki 1.21 installed, and my logo appears fine on each and every page that is pulled up on the Desktop PC. When any page is viewed on mobile, however, the standard Wikipedia logo is displayed. I have tried editing both LocalSettings.php and DefaultSettings.php. I have even overwritten the main wiki.png file with my own image. The Wikipedia logo isn't stored on my server, rather, it is being linked to off of the Wikipedia server. How can I keep this logo from being displayed when my page is loaded on mobile devices? Bttfvgo (talk) 01:07, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello, is MobileFrontend installed? Which version? Can you give us the link to your site?

Hello,

I have the same problem with Mediawiki 1.23.1 (but also when I roll back to 1.22.7). I do have MobileFrontend installed, the version corresponding to 1.23. The logo does not show up when the site is initially loaded from a mobile phone (because of MobileFrontend), but when the desktop version is requested from the mobile phone the logo is the wikipedia logo rather than my site logo.

Can you please give a link? MobileFrontend does not change the logo of the desktop site normally :/

Interestingly, this behavior was also observed on a non-mobile device--I have a report of one mac user that saw the Wikipedia logo rather than our logo (using chrome), while a different mac user did not experience this bug (also using chrome). Unfortunately I do not have access to a mac so I don't have much information beyond these two reports.
