How to stop website from auto scaling depending on screen size/ resolution

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://netrunner2077.squarespace.com/

hi there. I have multiple blocks that automatically resize depending on the resolution and size of the screen. They move out of the designated spot I have them set to to match what is casing it in my background image.
how would I go about implemented a site wide custom CSS code in order to stop these blocks from automatically resizing?
This is for a 7.1 layout.

Try adding this to Design > Custom CSS

@media screen and (max-width:767px) {
[data-section-id="5fe3b3efb8f27402052322e0"] {
    min-height: unset !important;
    height: 35vh !important;
}
}

I have images that have had a hover effect applied, they need to stay the same size.

Did you find an answer to this?

Thanks!

Hey There,

I am having the same issue and the code you supplied isn't working for me either. Are you able to help? 

Is it possible to keep the image and text stable next to each other? Or resize better? I have some spacing implementing which may be effecting it?

It will be ugly. Add to Design > Custom CSS

/* text image side by side */
@media screen and (max-width:767px) {
div#page-section-6072778d8ba1797240c9b230 .span-6 {
    width: 50% !important;
    float: left !important;
}
}

Hey guys just wondering if any one here was able to rectify the issue of text scaling across different browser sizes? I've built my website on a laptop, but when I open it on my larger desktop computer all my website text gets much smaller. I'm looking for some custom css that might fix this.

Hello. Just recently discovered that I'm also having this issue. Auto-scaling leads to lots of space and small text as I increase browser size on an external monitor.

Is there a way to adjust this without adding code, as I've had that not work before in attempting to add special fonts. Thanks.

Hello, I'm experiencing the same issue and would greatly appreciate advice on how to disable auto scaling as soon as possible. If this is not possible within Squarespace, we may need to consider switching to another web platform, as we feel the scaling makes our site appear unprofessional and homemade.

Thank you in advance.

Best, Nina

Having the same issue, and so far, I don't think there is an easy way to fix this based on what I have read here. Looks like a permanent Squarespace flaw. Other builders I tried do not mess up the website if being accessed in a different screen resolution. 😕Anyone had any luck for a fix?
