Responsive layout or USE MY CSS

Deann Graham asked on September 29, 2015 22:59

I seem to have trouble getting kentico to just let my css do its job. What do I need to turn of or on to make it stop shrinking my site and let it resize itself?

Are you talking about within the Kentico Admin? If so and you're making template edits with a site that uses media queries, your best bet is to edit them in the actual Page Template app because no css is applied there.

Yes, in as Admin. I can get the responsive design to work in a browser, but when you view it on a phone it stays at 980 px with and not the width of the device screen.

Are you using the Columns webpart? If so, I haven't had good luck with it simply because it seems to set a value even though you only want that for the development and not the live site. I'd work with layouts and webpart zone webparts. They seem to give me the best luck.

Well, it was something simple. My template was missing code. Check to see if you have this in your header. Or the shims and other things that you need for responsive. <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> I had it in one but not the other, simple fix with the master template and poof. Works.
