Hi Dianne

Enjoying the summer alright.. least our version of it!)

Regarding the layout would you like your site to be viewed on mobile devices as you see it on your desktop (with 3 columns)?

Ciarán

Hi Ciaran,

Glad you're enjoying your summer!

Yes please. Can you let me know if it's something I did incorrectly or if it is something I neglected to "turn on" that made it display in one column?

Thanks... Dianne

Hi Dianne

Could I ask you to re send the access details as I don't appear to have received them on this end.

Thank you.

Ciarán

Hi Ciaran,

Sorry they didn't make it through. I just resent from two different accounts. Please let me know you received them.

Thanks... Dianne

Strange... we still don't appear to have received your email. Could I ask you to set it to ciar4n@gmail.com instead.

Thank you

Ciarán

Thanks Ciaran. Will send them over right away.

Just sent over the credentials via my gmail account to your gmail account.

Thank you Dianne

I received your details via our Gmail account.

I have disabled the responsive layout via your templates parameters. This will mean your site will appear on mobile devices as it does on your desktop. Let me know if this is a suitable solution for you.

Hi Ciaran,

Thanks again for the resolution of the display issue. I didn't realize that the responsive template parameters, when turned on, would cause the single column display. The site is now appearing as it does on my desktop which at this point is preferable though not ideal because it's very small. It's my understanding that if I wanted it to display larger, I have to go to the one-column display or strip down the site to create a mobile version, correct?

One last question... Do you have any documentation you could share regarding what effects the "switches" return when turned on/off? Specifically, what effect should I see if I enable the responsive layout but turn off just the top1-2-3 modules but leave everything else on; or turn off just the sidecol modules but everything else on.

It would be helpful to know if I played around with it, what effects it would have.

Thanks again for helping. As always... you ROCK!

Hi Dianne

When you enable the responsive switch, the template will display at the resolution of the device it is been viewed on as well as loading the templates responsive.css. The problem with 3 columns is on small screen devices (eg. 330px wide) there simply is not enough room for 3 columns, each column would end up just one or two words wide. Hope that makes sense (",)

Sorry to say at present we have no detailed documentation, definitely something for us to put together in the near future. Each of the responsive switches allows you to turn off certain module blocks on small screen devices (eg. phones). So for example in your case you could set the sidecolumn modules switch to off and these modules will disappear once viewed on your phone. The same can be done for each row of modules, each switch disabling the entire row.
