Editing for mobile viewport causing unwanted changes to laptop viewport

Layouts

Hey there.

Has anyone had this issue and know of a solution - it seems to be a major bug.

I have fully designed my website on computer viewport, and am now in the process of cleaning up and redesigning all of the webpages for mobile viewport.

I’m doing this under the assumption that when I edit my page on mobile viewport, it doesn’t impact any of the elements on website viewport.

I’ve just spent hours editing a page, only to find the website viewport has been scrambled from me editing on mobile view. Has anyone had this issue before and know if i can undo the damage on my website viewport? So frustrating!

Edit: This wasn’t happening before, but now it’s starting to have site-wide implications with some elements. Simple switching between mobile and laptop viewports on any page will now move and mess with elements. Hopelessly frustrated and left with hours of additional work to fix all of this up. Gotta be cautious when committing to build your site on this buggy asf platform.

So sorry to hear about your experience. You can copy your widgets and create separate sets of them for each layout. This way, you will be able to edit them separately. If you come across bugs or need help with your Readymag project, please contact our support team at support@readymag.com.

I feel your pain. I’ve learned that you’re not able to edit what you see in the mobile viewport — you need to delete everything and copy over widgets and content, otherwise it screws up the desktop layout. Bit of a pain in the arse tbh.
