The site is responsive, I don’t think there is a “mobile version” for Newsmag.
Responsive design means the theme uses CSS to change the layout depending on “viewport,” — so there is no separate “mobile theme” to turn off.
The desktop version does show on tablets, like iPad (I use one).
You might be able to delete the CSS for the phone viewport in the style.css file, so you might start there and delete sections for smallest viewport.
But, TagDiv might have better answer. 🙂
Thanks for your reply. I try to explain it better :
What I need is that when you see the web from mobile design is not responsibe . We need the mobile web looks like the tablet or computer.
The way advertising sidebard (at the end of the web ) is distributed is not liked by our advertisers.
Thank you.
HI
@Vanesafp the theme was intent to be responsive and there is no easy way to change that behavior. Basically you need to go trough style.css file and remove the code between media queries: http://screencast.com/t/jPiFmfdRBxf
This is a very complex task =which requires time and good codeing skills in order to be achieved. We can’t offer customization services at the moment so if really need this and you’re not aware of the steps you need to take in this regard please consider hiring a developer or a freelancer to do this for you.
Thanks!
Thanks for the reply .
I understand that the subject has been designed in response mode .
In tablets, the web is viewed much like computer displays . But mobile advertising sidebar stays at the bottom , so that the reader will not see advertising while reading the news.
It would be perfect for us , so it looks like on mobile tablets .
If we can not do this, the theme does not help us .
Thank you.
Just some feedback as somebody who uses his iPad every day going on 4 years:
On the iPad in portrait, the sidebar does stay on the right unless you have something in the sidebar which is not responsive and which has a fixed width of 300. So, this is why it’s best to use “responsive” ad units, and anything else you put in your sidebar.
On a phone, it would make no sense to have the sidebar visible as it would be too narrow for anybody to see.
Simpler solution is to turn off sidebar ads on mobile, and then enable top of post ads for mobile 🙂
I guess if you’re using an iPad mini, the OTHER best solution would be to create a new viewport for “that size” which is in-between a phone and iPad. But you’d likely need to figure out what size that is, then modify the style.css to add that”width” at bottom of your style.css file.
So, the original iPad mini, which isn’t a good idea to shoot for is 1024×768, which is really about what a modern phone happens to be.
However an iPad MINI rev4, has a resolution of 2048-by-1536 — so you’d need an “interim” viewport added for the 1536 width to not break and go to smaller size and lose sidebar.
Hopefully food for thought 🙂
I think I’m not explaining my problem well.
In tablet, the sidebar is displayed to the right of the news, and this is great.
But in mobile, the sidebar (with all sides ads) are at the bottom of the web. Underneath all the news. Therefore, our advertisers are not happy, because nobody is going to go down to the end of the web to see advertising.
It would be great mobile web will see as in tablet (whit sidebar).
Millions of thanks
Hi
As I’ve mentioned in my previous reply this task involve some serious customization and we can’t provide a solution for the moment. We can provide support for everything related with current theme’s features but changing theme’s layout it’s a task which falls beyond the support can offer you.
You ca look for a developer from sites like https://studio.envato.com/ to help you in this matter if you can’t completed that task by yourself.
Thanks for your understanding!
And, again by “mobile” do you mean phones? An iPad is a “mobile device” as is a “tablet.”
On a phone, having a SIDEBAR would not work as everything would be narrow and tiny.
So your best choice is my suggestion:
a) turn off desktop ads on mobile from ad panel, so they won’t appear in sidebar (below content)
b) turn on “in content” ads on mobile, off on desktop, to have ads show above or in middle of content on mobile devices.
Or, hire a developer to edit the “viewports” and “break points” for your layouts as you wish for “mobile” devices.
Best of luck!

Hi, I would like to know if in the new updates there is the possibility of deactivating the phone version of the theme. I want the web to look the same in the phone as in the computer. I know that this penalizes in google and everything else … but Ads are placed at the bottom of the web and this is wrong.
Hello Vanesafp,
Most likely, you are using the Mobile Theme version which has a different layout than the desktop version. If you want to have the similar layout on the mobile but in responsive mode, you should simply disable the Mobile Theme plugin and the theme will be automatically switched to the General Responsive Mobile Mode.
Thanks for your understanding!
