Sidebar when displayed on mobile gets compressed and shunted to the left
10 replies · Started by James on July 30, 2020
Hi, I'm using Dispatch.
I noticed an issue on the mobile display of pages/posts that have the Sidebar layout set to Content / Sidebar. It displays fine on Desktop/laptop, but on mobile is pushed to the bottom (as the screen isn't wide enough, of course) but it is then shunted to the left hand side and then made very small (less than a quarter of the size I'd expect).
I've switched pages to Content only without sidebar, but in the future I'd like to know if this display functionality will be available, as it may be useful as the amount of content grows. Otherwise, I'm enjoying using Dispatch.
I'd very much appreciate any help/advice.
Thanks,
James
Hi there,
if you can enable the sidebar on one of your posts we can take a look at what the issue is.
You can use the Layout Element to change a single posts sidebar / content width etc:

Hi David,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I've enabled the sidebar as you requested on the "articles" page. I've checked on a mobile and the issue is still there for you to test.
Many thanks,
James
