COLUMN CONTROL TUTORIAL
In this short next level tutorial course we look at a specific task only – how to control the way columns within rows on your web page display depending on the device being used to view the page.
In the first module we explain exactly what the issue is, so you can understand and identify when the problem might occur as you build your web pages.
In the second module we offer a quick and dirty fix to resolve the issue using the show/hide on different devices tools within the WordPress theme we are using. This soltions works very well, and is worth knowing in itself, but it can become a bit of a maintenance headache if your pages contain a lot of rows and columns with text and images on alternate sides.
Finally in module 3 we look at a clean and efficient CSS solution to the problem which is far more scalable and much easier to maintain, and once implemented can be used again and again as required throughout your website.
