Desktop and Tablet Previews on blog post or different

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m trying to do something with my blog post, but when I look at the previews, the tablet version looks like I want it to, but the desktop version is all wonky. I’ve looked at the code, and it all seems to be in order. What is going on with it?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Did you perchance enable the mobile theme on a responsive layout theme? That will queer it for sure.

    The mobile ready theme is a default theme and a completely different theme that you do not need to enable, if your theme is listed as a responsive layout theme here https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/responsive-layout/
    The mobile default theme is provided for those who run older themes that aren’t the gold standard which is responsive layout.

    A responsive layout theme adapts to different screen sizes so that your website will work (and be optimized for) iPhones, iPads, Android and other mobile devices. When responsive width themes are viewed on mobiles sidebars appear below the posts in order to provide as much space as possible for reading.

    When we use a responsive theme we disable the mobile theme. Go to > Appearance > Mobile and disable the mobile theme
