Bootstrap—make page unresponsive


Right now I am in a kind of awkward position since have created a website using bootstrap 4 (with compass as ruby gem), but since there is a lot of discussion about the look of that on mobile devices just started right now, the client is now asking me to make the page behave like an »old-school« unresponsive Website, which just scales into the browser, as all the old-fashioned websites do, if they are not responsive by design.

So I removed the the

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

and the page is mostly doing as it should. But unfortunately it doesn't work on smaller sizes (> 500px), so I am asking myself which values I need to tweak, that it will just scale down everything.

Right now it works, except for paragraphs (<p>), headlines and all other stuff behaves as it should.

What am I missing here?


Solution

  • If you are calling to a CDN, bring the file locally, go in and remove all media queries.

    EDIT Check out Bootstrap for the actual removal of responsiveness documentation
