    Salut ecoledelavue,

    I’d like to try to help you. I see the demo “Argent” theme does not have this problem. I’m assuming you’ve made some customizations to the site’s CSS?

    There are 151 Free Responsive Layout WordPress Themes you can browse here https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/responsive-layout/?sort=free

    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. The mobile default theme is provided only for those who run older themes that aren’t the gold standard for themes, 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

    The missing widgets issue can also be caused by incorrect widget visibility settings https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/#widget-visibility

    @ecoledelavue, @tt – I agree with antoniancu here. If you resize the Argent Demo site https://argentdemo.wordpress.com/ to approximate the width of a mobile phone, everything resizes automatically to suit that format. However ecoledelavue.com does not when I resize my browser screen.

    This one has me scratching my head. I can’t figure out what is causing this, but add the following to the very end of your custom CSS.

    @media screen and (min-width: 850px) {
    .page-content {
        max-width: 800px;
        width: 100%;
    }
    }

    The only issue is with professionnelle in the h3 content right below the header image, which is too long to display on a phone screen at the font size used. I would suggest a Media Query at perhaps 550px to reduce that so that it can fit on a phone screen, something like this.

    @media screen and (max-width: 550px) {
    	.page-id-1 .page-content h3 {
    		font-size: 35px !important;
    	}
    }

    Also, you have some non-breaking spaces in that text that is causing issues, and in particular the one between formation and professionnelle. I would suggest replacing that with a standard space.
