Original website vs Exported website....

When I Save, Export and Upload my website the uploaded website is completely different and has somehow lost all of it's formatting. First screenshot image (01) is how it's supposed to look and second screenshot image (02) is how it actually looks once it's uploaded onto Firefox.

What am I doing wrong? Never experienced this problem before.

Have you set your breakpoints to "default" in the top menu "toggle breakpoints"

actually it could be any number of things, it would be better to send me the project file so I can take a look, you can use my email contact as found in the signature section below

or if you prefer not then zip the project file and post a link here on this forum, but be aware this is an open forum, so use caution

it could be that you have set your "body" element to a fixed width or the main container, in which case you need ensure that the left and right margins are set to "Auto" rather than "PX"

Just a thought ...

The main.css file seems nothing like what would (or should) have been created by Site Designer, and isn't a CSS file at all - it's an HTML file renamed as a CSS file. I have no idea how that may have occurred, but perhaps it would help to
1. clear what is currently uploaded, and
2. do a complete fresh export.

Gentlemen,

Thank you both for your replies. Yes I did end up deleting everything that was already uploaded and then uploaded it all over again and it solved this problem.

Again, thank you both very much for your assistance!

Well Tony I am sorry to say this but to be honest the website looks even worse now than before on my phone, not sure about larger screen sizes yet as I am not near my laptop and my normal larger monitor is not available.
I know you are using Frameworkless but which one? Desktop down or mobile first?

As to mobile first or desktop down, I don't think it matters. I see no sign of any breakpoints, that is, no @media queries in the CSS file.

I think Tony needs to experiment a bit with the CC tutorials and videos before he starts building a business site.
Ha en riktig god dag!
