Visual Composer column rows not reading on Mobiles

Hi
I am having problems with my TEST web pages for Visual Composer code ( using their demo code )being read correctly on smartphones ( especially the small screens ) the content of the rows are not being responsive in your theme - they are still trying to be read as 1 row with 3 columns on the screen and squashed the text up and you cannot read.
when I try another theme ( other htan yours ) on a different test website - everything is actually working quite well with the 3 x coloumns on a row DROPPING down into place under one another and not getting squashed side by side on one row - -- (( there is a problem with the text layout but that can be fixed later on this other theme )
lets compare the same page side by side
A) your theme - for my TEST FAQ PAGE
looks like this
http://quirktools.com/screenfly/#u=http%3A//www.yazoogle.com.au/faq-vc-page/&w=320&h=640&a=38
Live page: http://www.yazoogle.com.au/faq-vc-page/
and
B) and on a different theme TEST FAQ PAGE ( same visual composer code )
http://www.arakhnewebdesign.com/test-faq-page/
Can you FIX your theme to read Visual Composer mobile phone layout issues with columns centering correctly on the screen and not in a straight row with text squashed up.
Cheers

Hi there,
Can you try this CSS?:
@media (max-width: 768px) {
.vc_non_responsive .vc_row .vc_col-sm-3 {
width: 100%;
}
.vc_column-inner h1 {
font-size: 40px !important;
}
}
No that did not work -- the columns did not move under one another
and the CSS had a error on line ' font-size: 40px !important; '
The columns are NOT responsive -- here are 4 columns in a row squashed up together
they should look like this
It looks great to me?: http://screencast.com/t/Lm2eGAesX9
Can you clear your browser cache?
hey
just wondering if there is a solution ? When I checked using a very basic theme generated in http://underscores.me/ -- and added it to my site the columns drop up under one another as they supposed to from a row? A true responsive design.
I would really like your theme to be able to work with VISUAL COMPOSER https://vc.wpbakery.com/ as well - as it the main drop and drag program I use to add content to the web pages using all their special add-ons that makes the web page look professional.
With your theme, ALL works OK on a desktop or tablet but as soon as we get to a phone the smaller screen ( which all clients want ) then the rows that may have 3 columns or 4 columns with content -- do not drop under one another..but squash up. I would LOVE a fix with your theme to work.
Have you other clients using VISUAL Composer and also the additional plugin called ' ultimate add-ons Visual Composer '
take care

Hi Joanne,
Did you see my post above?: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/visual-composer-column-rows-not-reading-on-mobiles/#post-172399
The FAQ page looks great to me on mobile - maybe you just need to clear your browser cache to see the changes?
Yes that worked
and as you suggested when I added
Try this code, it may do a better job at making all columns site-wide responsive:
@media (max-width: 768px) {
.vc_column_container {
width: 100% !important;
}
}
this also fixed other column issues
Joanne
Glad it worked :)
OK
Thanks Tom -- fantastic support as per usual -- everything is working now as it should
If anyone uses the plugin Visual Composer with this theme use the following Custom CSS to fix the columns and font issues!
.page-header-image.grid-container {
max-width: 100%;
}
.page-header-image img {
width: 100%;
}
.page .wpb_single_image .vc_figure {
display: inherit;
}
.vc_transform .inside-article {
padding-top: 0;
}
@media (max-width: 768px) {
.vc_non_responsive .vc_row .vc_col-sm-3 {
width: 100%;
}
.vc_column-inner h1 {
font-size: 20px !important;
}
.vc_column_container {
width: 100% !important;
}
.entry-content h1 {
font-size: 60px !important;
}
.entry-content h2 {
font-size:30px !important;
}
}
Cheers

Glad I could help :)
hi
if you look at my testimonials page the text is over flowing the container
https://www.yazoogle.com.au/testimonials/
the above CSS did not fix this page AND the Heading Testimonials is also not resized ?
and the submission for for the testimonial towards the end of the page - text size is not correct either -- the boxes are overlapping the text??
Any coding help would be great!!

Hi Joanne,
I'm not seeing any issues on your site? Can you take a screenshot of what you're seeing?
Hi
I fixed one part myself with new layout from the Testimonails plugin
BUT there are 2 parts on the page that need some coding
1) The Testimonial Feedback form at the bottom of the page -- the text is overlapping the boxes
https://www.yazoogle.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/form-text-running-over-boxes.jpg
2) AND the heading at the top of the page the Word Testimonials -- can I have the CSS to resize to say 16px for mobiles ( or whatever you suggest )

in addition
on the home page
