Any help with my trip blog? It looks great on a desktop, but chances are most parents will access it on their phone. The pictures are not resizing on the phone properly and therefore it is making it near impossible to read the text that is wrapped round these massive images.
If it was a full wordpress I could probably adjust the img css, but not sure if i can do that in glow version.
Exact link included below.
I can see the problem on mobile. (the galleries and other pages look fine).
Ive sent this via email too.
I can think of a couple of solutions.
If you are happy with CSS you should be able to add CSS to the site in the customizer. You might need to active the Jetpack plugin and the CSS module if you have not already.
I am guessing something like:
img.alignright {width:100%} wrapped in a media query would do the trick. You might have to target the page too.
The other, more long winded solution would be to turn on the blocks editor and edit that page with the block editor (you can just make the block ed an option). Using the Media & Text block would do the trick as you can tick the stack on mobile option in the block settings.
We have a wee bit of info on that block:
