    Hi Kriesi-Team,

    we just checked our Website in IE8 and newer versions of the Internet Explorer and figured out
    that there is no responsive behavior for the whole site happening, how come?

    Neither the layout elements or the type are scaling,
    any tip or clue how we can fix that problem?

    Best regards

    Hi MeisDesign!

    Thank you for using the theme!

    I’m sorry but IE8 doesn’t recognize media queries that’s why it is not responsive on that browser. Internet Explorer 8 is a 5 years old piece of software which started on March 2009 and in web development that is quite old. The reason that it stayed that long is because of Windows XP and if you want to know, Microsoft has ended their support on that version of their OS last April 8, 2014. Current statistic says that global market share of IE 8 ranged from 6.93% to 8.73% and this is dropping quite fast as we speak. We won’t be surprise if the theme is not responsive on IE8 but IE9 and new version of the browser should render the theme properly. If you can give us the link to the actual website, we would like to check it. A screenshot of the issue will help.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
