Thanks alot Adam that did the trick.

Is there any documentation on best practices when using the RLM. I would love to know the proper way to do it.

I have spent alot of time customizing the css and content of this page. I absolutely dread having to go back into my RLM and doing any changes at all!

I'm fairly new to view ports is there an easy way to change it outside of the program?


We have a bunch of articles. I would recommend looking over the Quick Start Guide, http://www.coffeecup.com/help/articles/ … art-guide/

And here is a theme that we put together that you can follow along with. http://www.coffeecup.com/help/articles/ … out-maker/

Here is a little something I am dabbling with, do not look at the design it is not for that purpose, but it shows some of the prebuilt styles in Coffeegrinder. http://coffeecup-test.coffeecup.com/lay … index.html

But as to basic tips. Use a custom.css file until you are completely done, this allows you to both work in the RLM and out. Because, for you to make the change you want in RLM you would only need to replace the CSS files not the HTML pages on re-export, because you are making a CSS change not a change to the index.html page itself. So your HTML content would be safe. You would lose anything you added to the main.css but you can copy that before you export (only what you have done) and it would take 2 minutes.

As to an easier way to edit breakpoints, the way you are doing it is the only way.

I would also recommend removing the Slider at around 480px as most cell phones are going to be running on a data plan with 4g access and the slide show will slow down the load time and increase the download size of your website for mobile users. Not everyone has an unlimited plan. :P


Hey Adam look what I did. Notice what happens to the Gallery at 486px.

You might also want to check your iframe width on your G+ icon. It is creating a left-right scroll bar.

Leadership is a privilege to better the lives of others. It is not an opportunity to satisfy personal greed. :P

I think it's getting better. I think less is more with responsive design. Mobile users can be a little fickle.:lol:
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
