Hey Hayley,
I would recommend giving your readers the option to switch between the two options. No use in throwing away the responsive experience for everyone. Some people prefer to scroll. Here’s a good tutorial on how to do it:
http://sridharkatakam.com/add-link-switch-responsive-desktop-views-genesis/
It’s based around a clean bit of javascript called Responsive Switch.
I could write some simple javascript code so that the website is always in desktop view, but as I said, I wouldn’t recommend it. Responsive is the wave of the future.
Good luck!
Kat
Hi Kat!
Good call, I think I will do that 🙂
I had actually also been looking for ways to fix my responsive design, but since I was having so much trouble finding ways to do that, I thought I’d take it out completely. But I agree, responsive is the wave of the future 🙂 So if you have an suggestions, or tutorials you may know of to go about fixing it up, I’d greatly appreciate it! 🙂 Incase you wanted to see what mine looks like on a mobile device, the URL is http://www.meyouandhayleylarue.com.
Basically, I want to fix my navigation, header, and the gap between the header and the first post. I added a plugin for a fixed nav, but it didn’t really do what I had in mind.
Let me know what you think 🙂
On my device, an iphone 4s, the navigation is fixed (meaning it persistently stays stuck to the top of the screen even when I scroll down or up).
Unless you mean fix your navigation as in change it in some way.
The gap between the header and the first post seems pretty small already on my screen.
In conclusion, everything looks and works fine! If you have something very specific that needs to change, let me know and I can point you in the right direction as far as tuts or things to search for.
