Wordpress blog

Hello, I've just uploaded a site using backlight 2, I'm also using a wordpress theme from the older CE3 wordpress template. The blog looks okay if I make the screen size smaller on the computer to mobile size but if I look at the site on a mobile phone or tablet its not looking as it should. Any ideas ?

Re: Wordpress blog

Update to the Backlight WordPress addon?

The blog looks like it’s missing some css. When you updated to BL2, it looks like you deleted some needed folders, specifically, the resources folder.

	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.monikabaster.com/resources/css/scaffolding.min.css" />	
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.monikabaster.com/resources/css/ce3-core.css" />

I don't recall if CE3 had the "share resources with TTG Pages". If it did, then the blog theme looks like it's trying to get resources from the pages installation. Which is probably now gone.

Have you tried reexporting and uploading the theme from CE3 Theme for WordPress? That's the first thing to try.

Re: Wordpress blog

Since you upgraded your site to use Backlight, I would get the Wordpress for Backlight module as well. This way you have the same look&feel of your main site and get all other Backlight 2 benefits.

Re: Wordpress blog

I've checked my CE3 Wordpress theme and it does indeed share resources with Pages, which means I had to buy the Backlight 2 Wordpress plugin. I'm going to install now and see how it goes.
Thanks
