W3 Total Cache Switch Between Mobile Themes and Desktop

we have these functions in a file in the plugins folder of w3 total cache plugin.

what they do is make different versions of the page cache based on which browser comes to the site. (for us its IE and everyone else)

If you want to modify the code for it to do store different versions for mobile browsers only it shouldn’t be that hard. But I can’t offer more help than this.

/**
 * Makes different page cache keys based on user agent
 *
 */
function liberal_w3tc_pgcache_cache_key($key){
    global $is_IE, $is_lynx, $is_gecko, $is_winIE, $is_macIE, $is_opera, $is_NS4, $is_safari, $is_chrome, $is_iphone;

    liberal_w3_detect_browser();

    $postfix = "";
    if($is_winIE) {
        $postfix = "winIE";
    }

    if($postfix) $key .= "_" . $postfix;

    return $key;
}
w3tc_add_action('w3tc_pgcache_cache_key', 'liberal_w3tc_pgcache_cache_key');

/**
 * Simple browser detection
 * This code is copied from wp-includes/vars.php because we need it for W3 total cache which is loaded before wp-includes/vars.php
 *
 * @see wp-includes/vars.php:37

    global $is_lynx, $is_gecko, $is_winIE, $is_macIE, $is_opera, $is_NS4, $is_safari, $is_chrome, $is_iphone, $is_IE;
    $is_lynx = $is_gecko = $is_winIE = $is_macIE = $is_opera = $is_NS4 = $is_safari = $is_chrome = $is_iphone = false;

    if ( isset($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']) ) {
        if ( strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Lynx') !== false ) {
            $is_lynx = true;
