victoriandrawings Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Site URL: https://www.victoriandrawings.com/home/prints Using a new Zion template , 7.1 platform. Pages pass google mobile friendly tests at all times, but every few weeks one is then flagged for needing validation. faults listed as: text too small clickable elements too close content wider than screen Sometimes just clicking request validation gets the page to pass, after a few days, now not. See this a common complaint on Google forums, with very few solutions. Mostly attributed to google bot complexities ! I have not modified my page css and am at wits end as to what to do next Link to comment

victoriandrawings Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 Thanks so much tuanphan and Christy ! I have had this problem before and came to the same solution mentioned. It worked twice, but now the message back from google is that the validation failed. Should I wait a while and try again? I do not wish to get a black mark in the process! Link to comment
Guest Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 got exactly the same problem. text too small, clickable object too close. i made bigger text and more space in between objects - test with google - google says its ok, problem solved - few weeks later, the same google-message again. how comes? i thought sqarespace is search engine optimized? and also: the text was never too small, it was very easy to read on mobile devices. check my website: www.tiefschwarz.ch Link to comment
Serj Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Same problem here, google flagging few pages every now and then and usually the error goes away on its own. But now it is not, we are stuck with the 'Clickable elements too close together' error on couple of our pages... When checking Google Mobile-Friendly Test and Bing Mobile-Friendly Test both pages pass with both of the tools and pages load and visually look fine on mobile devices with plenty of space between elements. What is weird, we have a bunch of similar other pages which are not flagged. Anybody was able to find a solution to this? Is it a SquareSpace issue?! iPhoneIntact 1 Link to comment
