Summary

  • On mobile devices (<768px width), opens chat in same tab for better UX
  • On desktop, calculates responsive popup size (max 400x600, fits viewport)
  • Centers popup window on screen
  • Maintains popup blocked fallback behavior

Test plan

  • Test on desktop (>768px) - popup opens centered with responsive size
  • Test on narrow desktop window - popup fits within viewport
  • Test on mobile device or emulator (<768px) - navigates directly (no popup)
  • Block popups in browser - verify fallback redirect works

Closes #22

- On mobile (<768px), navigates directly instead of opening popup
- On desktop, calculates responsive popup size based on viewport
- Centers popup window on screen
- Maintains popup fallback for blocked popups

Closes #22

Review: PR #34 - Add responsive popup sizing for mobile devices

Summary

Improves mobile UX by navigating directly on mobile and using responsive popup sizing on desktop.

Issues Found

1. Missing JavaScript file - Blocker

Same issue as PR #36: The PR modifies assets/js/sophia-chat.js, but this file doesn't exist. The current implementation uses inline JS.

Current inline JS location: sophia-chat.php:64

Fix needed: Either create and enqueue the JS file, or apply changes to inline JS.

2. Mobile navigation loses context - Low

On mobile, window.location.href = chatUrl navigates away from the current page. Users lose their place on the site.

Consider: Use window.open(chatUrl, '_blank') on mobile instead, which opens in a new tab but works better with mobile browsers.

Analysis

Aspect Assessment
Correctness ⚠️ Missing JS file dependency
UX ✅ Good responsive logic
Performance ✅ No impact
Backwards compat ✅ Graceful fallback

What's Good

  • 768px breakpoint is sensible
  • Responsive sizing calculation is correct
  • Centering popup improves UX
  • Extracted function improves readability

Tests

  • Verified calculation logic in PHPUnit tests
  • Manual browser testing needed for JS behavior

Recommendation: REQUEST CHANGES - Fix JS file dependency issue

- Use window.open on mobile to preserve user context
