    I am using the piecemaker plugin to show my portfolio which looks great on my website, but doesn't show up on my iphone as it is made in flash. I really want to keep the piecemaker but i want my site to be viewable on an iphone. I thought of just putting a link at the top of the page saying 'if you are viewing this page on an iphone click here' and linking to a css slideshow, but I was wondering if there was a plugin that would automatically recognise that it was being viewed on a phone and show the appropriate page.

    Thanks for answering! Neither of these will let me change the url of my portfolio page to another, they will only let me change the url of the homepage. Is there anything that will let you keep the rest of the site the same but just change one page?

    Try this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/

    The settings for this plugin will be under Tools > Redirection. From there, you can (for example) add a new redirect from Source URL: http://www.domain.com/portfolio to Target URL: http://www.domain.com/iphone-portfolio and setting "Match" to "URL and user agent". After you add the redirection, click on it in the list to modify its setting, and then specify the user agent(s) you want to redirect. This worked perfectly for redirecting my iPhone, but remember that you may have to add additional redirects or user agents to accommodate Android, etc.
