Responsiveness/mobile feature doesn't work

Hi Olivia, I don’t have the answer to your problem, but I hope you get it fixed!
I’m jumping on this article because it seems the most sensible to group website responsive under a single post.
My problem is that when I use Windows snap feature to the edge of the screen (so you can get two equal size windows on either side), my text and containers are not responding to the new size properly, and some the text is missing. I find this annoying and I imagine my readers will too. Any advice would be very appreciated. I love your parabola theme by the way, keep up the good work!

Here is a screenshot on what I am experiencing:

Hi Kay,

Thanks for your help. Found out that it wasn’t the Tempera layout but the fact that my host automatically redirects visitors using mobile devices to a nonexistent mobile site. I made it so the redirect wouldn’t happen again, and now it looks great! Thanks again!

Best,
Olivia

@Luis, I checked out your site, and that is exactly what I need my site to do. I have visitors to my site that use a lower resolution and they complain about scrolling side to side to see the whole site.

@Kay, I love this theme and find it really easy to use. Please tell me of a way to make the site respond to all screen resolutions. Thank you for creating an awesome theme, I hope to be able to use it more effectively with proper responsiveness.

BUMP

any ideas yet? is the develpment dead? because i would love to buy the theme, its really amazing…There is only the issue with the responsive layout as mentioned above…

No, its on chrome as well with this template…
i really love that template and would like to buy it, but i want to be sure this is fixed, that is most important for me…

Oh they just released an update today 🙂 So they still might be alive, even that nobody seems to take care of the forum 🙂

Hi my responsiveness is also not working. I have one widget not showing on some screens and content not showing on my phone.It seems to have cut my right side off. What settings should I have for content and side bar with single sidebars on left and right.

Hi, Folks. I have a similar problem with the Parabola theme. It suddenly just went unresponsive. I posted my topic in the Parabola forum over a week ago, but with no response, so I will try here.
The responsiveness feature has always worked fine as tested in my Kindle’s Silk browser and a colleague’s Android phone. Responsiveness survived my recent update to WordPress 3.8.1, as well.
I had not made any significant changes to the site since it was responsive, except for disabling some little used plugins, and reassembling a few more posts.
I tested it here: (Peter, if you don’t have a mobile device for testing, try this) http://www.mobilephoneemulator.com/ in some emulated browsers. It was not responsive in any of these simulations.
WHAT I HAVE DONE TO TROUBLESHOOT:
I ran through Zed’s troubleshooter as a guide http://www.cryoutcreations.eu/forums/t/minimal-step-by-step-tutorial-for-debugging-bugsissuesincompatibilities
And took the following steps:
Made sure responsiveness is enabled (it is)
Updated to the latest version of Parabola v1.3.3
Updated all plugins
Disabled all plugins (no change)
Reenabled plugins
Switched to 2014 theme (still unresponsive)&
Tested again at : http://www.mobilephoneemulator.com/
Switched back to Parabola
I don’t think I have any caching plugins to deal with.
I tried a debugging plugin which errors indicated that I need to update php from 5.2-5.3, and that one of my plugins has an undefined variable for the install date. But these errors were likely present when responsiveness was working.

None of this made any difference, except that disabling the plugins and switching themes broke the website. The majority of my theme customizations are focused on replacing the topmenus with side menus, and adding some sliders for photos in order to replicate the look of the original Joomla website http://www.seahec.org (I converted from Joomla to WP)

So, having exhausted those steps, what might be the next steps? I would appreciate any guidance people could offer.
Olivia, your comment sounds intriguing:
“my host automatically redirects visitors using mobile devices to a nonexistent mobile site. I made it so the redirect wouldn’t happen again, and now it looks great!”

How did you find that out and accomplish fixing the redirect? If I knew what to do, I would look into your suggestion.

Thank you.

I’m using the Tempera theme (which I love and use a lot) and everything works fine for this site except on iPhones the header area takes up all the room on the screen so when someone goes to the site all they see is blank turquoise space, everything is there, but they have to scroll down to see it. I found that not allowing zoom has fixed other issues with this theme on iPhone, but I’ve already disabled zoom for this one and it doesn’t seem to fix the issue. What else can I do?

Thanks!

Hello Guys,

Great theme, thanks for this, however, I have challenges with responsiveness.
Digging down in menu, main content is appearing shrinked on landscape, and it is not appearing at all properly on portrait, especially on smaller screens. Regardless of the OS, I checked at responsinator.

Any idea on the possible solution?

Thank you very much!
