    Hi Fabricio,

    First of all I apologize for the delayed response.

    I have tested your site both on mobile and desktop and they seem to be running as expected. Am I missing something here? Please elaborate

    Looking forward to hear from you.

    Hi Addo,

    I will give to you an example.

    When I'm using my mobile phone, some times, I want to see the "desktop format" for some specific websites and specific reasons. On Chrome I do it clicking on the "three dots" (top right) and then selecting "Request desktop site".

    Usually the websites show one layout for mobiles and other to desktop. In my website, when I try to check the "Desktop layout" using a mobile phone,
    I can't. It shows the same layout as I had before. I was expecting to see with the same layout as I see using a desktop.

    On mobiles, we have a new menu on the top right and the contents are moved to a vertical view, for example:
    *Recent Posts*
    *Your Tutor*
    *Video Collection*

    On desktop, the contents are in general in a horizontal view. For example,
    my main page:
    *Recent Posts – Your Tutor – Video Collection*

    Other example, go to http://www.google.com using your mobile. You will see a mobile layout, then you select that option to have the desktop site, then you will see the same layout as your desktop computer.

    Thank you!!!

    Hi Fabrício,

    First of all I apologize for the delayed response

    Now I get you. Am afraid that is not possible with the theme as it is . The Vantage is a responsive theme, scaling your website for small devices.

    I’ve marked this thread as a feature request. We often look through these threads to get ideas for what to add in our future updates. Hopefully, we’ll be able to add this in a future update.

    If you need this urgently, you could always post a job on https://codeable.io/.

    Cheers
