    Hi,
    I used one of the demos for my Enfold site

    when i run it through the google search console test to see if it is mobile friendly, it says it is not.

    https://search.google.com/test/mobile-friendly?id=TsFQ28qkOp_e-DC_J-T32A

    I haven’t messed around with it much, and it seems surprising that one of your theme demos isn’t.

    Can you help?

    I notice that when I look at my site on my samsung s8 phone, the sidebar doesn’t show at all, not even at the end of the content. So maybe that’s an issue?

    Thank you!

    Hey victoria,
    I see that the test is not loading your images, css, or scripts, but when I test our online demo all of these load and it passes the mobile test
    I believe the main reason your site is not passing is because it is not SSL (https) so the test is not loading your resources.
    I recommend adding SSL (https) to your site, many webhosts offer this for free using the Lets-encrypt SSL, please ask your webhost if they support this.
    Let us know if you would like a webhost recommendation that supports the free Lets-encrypt SSL

    Best regards,
    Mike

    ok, great. thank you for that. I was concerned that if google do not pass it as mobile friendly, then it will get downgraded in the search ranks. Would this be the case, do you think?

    I will check out the SSL thing…

    thanks!

    Hi,
    Google has said that a site with SSL will be listed more favorable, they didn’t say downgrade. Google is a supporting partner of the free Lets-encrypt service.

    Best regards,

    Thanks Mike.

    I got in touch with my host and they’ve added the ssl certificate.

    Appreciate the help!

    Well… there is one other thing…

    When I look at my site on my phone, it doesn’t show the sidebar, not even at the bottom of the main body content.

    On desktop the sidebar widgets show on the page, on mobile they don’t show anywhere.

    I have content in the sidebar that i would like all visitors to see.

    Any ideas why this is happening?

    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Your css rules hide the homepage sidebar for mobile, Please try this code in the General Styling > Quick CSS field or in the WordPress > Customize > Additional CSS field to show it:

    @media only screen and (max-width: 767px){
    .responsive .template-blog .blog-meta, .responsive .post_author_timeline, .responsive #top #main .sidebar {
        display: block !important;
    }
    #top #main .sidebar {
        overflow: visible !important; 
    }
    }

    Best regards,
    Mike
