bernardwang Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 Hi Squarespace Community, I have worked on my post, it worked well on desktop format but when i switched over to mobile format, everything is in wrong order. Could anyone advise on this? I spent a few days to work on it and only to realised its end results are different. Thank you and i really appreciate your help in advance. password to page: test Link to comment

This is a common question, and the answer is that Squarespace's new layout editor requires that you edit the layout for both desktop and mobile. This is a new thing for Squarespace, previously there was no option for editing the mobile layout. So what you need to do for every page, is go in to edit a page, then toggle the mobile view in the top right, you will then see all of your blocks roughly in the right order but also possibly in the order that you added each block, and you need to move everything around to be in the correct order. If you click on a block, the popup will show an up and down arrow, you can use these to reorder, but you can also click and drag blocks around just like the desktop layout editor. You can also change the shape and size of the blocks to suit your design. Bear in mind that the desktop and mobile content will be the same. If you edit the text on mobile it will effect the desktop, if you delete a block it will disappear on both mobile and desktop, it is only the layout that can be different. As a further note; when you make changes to the page in the future, make sure to always check the mobile view as this may need editing any time you edit the content. bernardwang 1 Please like and upvote if my comments were helpful to you.

bernardwang Posted June 1 Author Share Posted June 1 Hi Ziggy, Thank you for your prompt help. It has resolved my problem very well. My next question is how do I add (https://www.bernardwangg.com/mitsui-shopping-park-lalaport) page into 'blog' folder? I do not like (https://www.bernardwangg.com/mitsui-shopping-park-lalaport) to appear on my task bar. Thank you once again 🙂 Link to comment
Ziggy Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 You need to add a folder to your main navigation, and then put the pages you want inside the folder. To add drop-down menus, use folders.

I'm not sure I fully understand what you're trying to do, but if you have multiple blog pages, you can select a blog post (or multiple) and at the bottom left you will see an option to move them to another blog page.

bernardwang Posted June 2 Author Share Posted June 2 Hi Ziggy Thank you. Sorry let me show you a screen recording. I like to move ' Mitsui Shopping Park Lalaport' page into 'Blog' folder, but it kept bouncing the file away, and i do not want 'Mitsui Shopping Park Lalaport' to be on my navigation bar. Could you advise on it? Thank you. Screen Recording 2023-06-03 at 00.21.35.mp4 Link to comment
Ziggy Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Blog pages are not folders, pages can't be moved and dropped into them. If you want that content on the blog page then you need to create a new blog post and replicate the content in the blog post. Please like and upvote if my comments were helpful to you. Cheers!

You will need to copy and paste the content of that page into a new blog post. bernardwang 1 Sayre (I'm supposed to be writing probably, but here I am 🤣) Link to comment
bernardwang Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 Hi sayreambrosio, Thank you for your reply. I tried selecting all of the contents in the article and paste into a new page within a blog, but it does not work. Must i copy one by one? I think that is very tedious .. Thank you. Link to comment

The text can be copy/pasted in to the new blog you need to create, images will be in the asset library, so don't need re-uploading. bernardwang 1 Please like and upvote if my comments were helpful to you.

bernardwang Posted June 4 Author Share Posted June 4 Hi Ziggy, Thank you. Sadly, this would take up a lot of time to recopy and format for both desktop and mobile version. I guess it is the platform's limitations. Thanks for all your prompt responses. Link to comment

Yes, the formatting method is also different for blog pages, it will take some time depending on the content, but it's the only way. bernardwang 1 Please like and upvote if my comments were helpful to you.
