Hi! I created a site using dreamweaver. In the browser window it is responsive, I also tested it on my mobile phone. But now that it is live it is not responsive anymore. Anyone have a clue why? Site is Laura A Kincaid - Web Portfolio  if that helps.

Thanks,

laurie

You neglected to add the responsive viewport meta tag for mobile phones.

Add this to the <head> of your  Template.dwt file. 

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Save template and populate changes to all child pages.  And then upload all pages to server again.

Everything appears responsive to me in Vivaldi and Chrome.

What's not responding for you as expected, and in which browsers?

You must have solved your problem because it looks OK to me on Firefox in Responsive Design mode.

In the testing sites it works fine. But on my actual phone (iphone) i both safari, chrome and firefox it is not responsive. I also on the ipad it is not responsive even though it is when in the browser and when I tested it before uplaoding and making the site live.
