Responsive site works on desktop but not mobile - wordpress

I'm working on developing this responsive Wordpress site: http://www.allisoncassels.com/Test/ and having a problem with my media queries.
I coded the CSS for the following breakpoints:
/* Portrait Tablets */
#media only screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 959px)
/* Portrait Mobiles */
#media only screen and (max-width: 767px)
/* Landscape Mobiles */
#media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px)
On desktop, everything looks great. On my phone and tablet, some things are mobile and some things are still showing like the desktop (stuff I have display: none on is showing, div widths are off, etc.)
The only thing I can figure out is that it's related to my phone/tablet being retina display, but I don't see other sites having to factor that into their calculations...
Really baffled right now, I'll appreciate any help. Thanks

Put this in your head!!! :P

You should add this meta

This wordpress theme Avando is already responsive:
http://themefurnace.com/themes/?theme=Avando
you don't need to create some additional css

Update
My web host's server was crashing while I was working last night and I think that was affecting the files being properly propagated... All the responsive code works perfectly today.

Try adding a color css border around elements that are not displaying correctly, border:thin red solid; or change the background-color to figure out if you css selector is being used. Also, it will be usefull if you put in links to the page and point out the elements you are having issues with and the device/device browser you are testing on.

What is correct media query for IPad Pro?

I have these two but they are not working. I'm simulating in Chrome
/* Landscape*/
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 1024px) and (max-device-width: 1366px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (orientation: landscape) {}
/* Portrait*/
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 1024px) and (max-device-width: 1366px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (orientation: portrait) {}
If I remove 'and (orientation: landscape)' then the css in there works in the first media query.
What is the correct orientation, for both landscape and portrait ?
The HTML meta is set as
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no" />
/* ----------- iPad Pro ----------- */
/* Portrait and Landscape */
#media only screen
and (min-width: 1024px)
and (max-height: 1366px)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) {
}
/* Portrait */
#media only screen
and (min-width: 1024px)
and (max-height: 1366px)
and (orientation: portrait)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) {
}
/* Landscape */
#media only screen
and (min-width: 1024px)
and (max-height: 1366px)
and (orientation: landscape)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) {
}
I don't have an iPad Pro but this works for me in the Chrome simulator.
/* Landscape*/
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 1366px) and (max-device-height: 1024px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (orientation: landscape) {}
/* Portrait*/
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 1024px) and (max-device-height: 1366px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (orientation: portrait) {}
Portrait medias query for iPad Pro should be fine as it is.
Landscape media query for iPad Pro (min-device-width) should be 1366px and (max device-height) should be 1024px.
Hope this helps.
Note that there are multiple iPad Pros, each with a different Viewports: When emulating an iPad Pro via the Chrome developer tools, the iPad Pro (12.9") is the default option. If you want to emulate one of the other iPad Pros (10.5" or 9.7") with a different viewport, you'll need to add a custom emulated device with the correct specs.
You can search devices, viewports, and their respective CSS media queries at: http://vizdevices.yesviz.com/devices.php.
For instance, the iPad Pro (12.9") would have the following media queries:
/* Landscape */
#media only screen and (min-width: 1366px) and (orientation: landscape) { /* Your Styles... */ }
/*Portrait*/
#media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) and (orientation: portrait) { /* Your Styles... */ }
Whereas the iPad Pro (10.5") will have:
/* Landscape */
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 1112px) and (orientation: landscape) { /* Your Styles... */ }
/*Portrait*/
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 834px) and (orientation: portrait) { /* Your Styles... */ }
I can't guarantee that this will work for every new iPad Pro which will be released but this works pretty well as of 2019:
#media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) and (max-height: 1366px)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) and (hover: none) {
/* ... */
}
This worked for me
/* Portrait */
#media only screen
and (min-device-width: 834px)
and (max-device-width: 834px)
and (orientation: portrait)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
}
/* Landscape */
#media only screen
and (min-width: 1112px)
and (max-width: 1112px)
and (orientation: landscape)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2)
{
}
Too late but may this save you from headache!
All of these is because we have to detect the target browser is a mobile!
Is this a mobile then combine it with min/max-(width/height)'s
So Just this seems works:
#media (hover: none) {
/* ... */
}
If the primary input mechanism system of the device cannot hover over elements with ease or they can but not easily (for example a long touch is performed to emulate the hover) or there is no primary input mechanism at all, we use none!
There are many cases that you can read from bellow links.
Described as well Also for browser Support See this from MDN
I tried several of the proposed answers but the problem is that the media queries conflicted with other queries and instead of displaying the mobile CSS on the iPad Pro, it was displaying the desktop CSS. So instead of using max and min for dimensions, I used the EXACT VALUES and it works because on the iPad pro you can't resize the browser.
Note that I added a query for mobile CSS that I use for devices with less than 900px width; feel free to remove it if needed.
This is the query, it combines both landscape and portrait, it works for the 12.9" and if you need to target the 10.5" you can simply add the queries for these dimensions:
#media only screen and (max-width: 900px),
(height: 1024px) and (width: 1366px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) and (orientation: landscape),
(width: 1024px) and (height: 1366px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) and (orientation: portrait) {
// insert mobile and iPad Pro 12.9" CSS here
}
For those who want to target an iPad Pro 11" the device-width is 834px, device-height is 1194px and the device-pixel-ratio is 2. Source: screen.width, screen.height and devicePixelRatio reported by Safari on iOS Simulator.
Exact media query for portrait: (device-height: 1194px) and (device-width: 834px) and (-webkit-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (orientation: portrait)
iPad Pro 12th Gen - 2022, I have tried, and it worked.
Portrait:
#media only screen and (width: 1024px) and (height: 1292px) {}
Landscape:
#media only screen and (width: 1366px) and (height: 950px) {}

Media Queries On iPhone

I'm trying to use media queries, however they aren't working when I go to my iPhone. When I resize my browser window it works fine though. They look like the following:
#media (max-width: 480px){...}
And I've including the following meta tag at the top of the file:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
Any idea why it wouldn't be working properly?
EDIT
Try this:
/* ----------- iPhone 4 and 4S ----------- */
/* Portrait and Landscape */
#media only screen
and (min-device-width: 320px)
and (max-device-width: 480px)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
}
/* Portrait */
#media only screen
and (min-device-width: 320px)
and (max-device-width: 480px)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2)
and (orientation: portrait) {
}
/* Landscape */
#media only screen
and (min-device-width: 320px)
and (max-device-width: 480px)
and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2)
and (orientation: landscape) {
}
You can use this as reference for iPhones.

media Query for macbook pro 15"

I'm trying to apply media query for laptop 15" and smaller with no success.
Here is my media query:
#media screen and (min-device-width: 1200px) and (max-device-width: 1600px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1) { }
And:
#media screen and (min-device-width: 1200px) and (max-device-width: 1600px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (min-resolution: 192dpi) { }
I works for 13inch macbook pro but no for the 15".
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
It might be a problem with min-device-width, as it should only work on mobile devices (tablet, smartphones):
min-device-width
Try using those (without -device-) so you can test it on your computer's browser.
min-width or max-width
Styles for Desktop
#media screen and (min-width: 1025px) and (max-width: 1280px) {
/* Styles for Desktops */
}
Also add inside tag
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
/*--cover up mac , mac-book---*/
#media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1920px) {}
/*--mac book pro , and mac-book retina display screen---*/
#media only screen and (min-width: 1920px) and (max-width: 2560px) {}
Retina Display media queries
#media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio : 1.5), only
screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio : 1.5) { styles }

CSS detect either iphone ipad or any other handheld

maybe this is simple but I havent found the answer yet
How do I detect either iphone, ipad, ipad, android phone in any mode via CSS?
I read this
Detect iPhone/iPad purely by css
that describes how to detect all the specific devices
But what I am looking for is to distinguish between desktop/laptop AND all ipad/ipod/iphone/android devices in general
Here are my notes on the matter: For any device - do your research on it's screen sizes and ratios and then do a #media query in your stylesheet for each device.
iPhone4
<link rel="stylesheet" media="only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2)" type="text/css" href="iphone4.css" />
(portrait or landscape) on the iPad
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (orientation:portrait)" href="portrait.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all and (orientation:landscape)" href="landscape.css">
Mobile Phones Portrait
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (orientation: portrait){
/* some CSS here */
}
Mobile Phones Landscape
#media screen and (max-device-width: 640px) and (orientation: landscape){
/* some CSS here */
}
Mobile Phones Portrait or Landscape
#media screen and (max-device-width: 640px){
/* some CSS here */
}
iPhone 4+ Portrait or Landscape
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2){
/* some CSS here */
}
iPhone 5 Only
#media only screen and (min-device-width: 640px) and (max-device-width: 1136px) and (- webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
/* styles here */
}
iPhone < 5: aspect ratio
#media screen and (device-aspect-ratio: 2/3) {}
Tablets Portrait or Landscape
#media screen and (min-device-width: 768px) and (max-device-width: 1024px){
/* some CSS here */
}
Desktops
#media screen and (min-width: 1024px){
/* some CSS here */
}
Styles only between two sizes.
#media screen and (min-width: 319px) and (max-width: 1281px){}
BTDUBS - Did you know that WordPress has an is_iphone() global built in?
global $is_iphone;
if ( $is_iphone ) {
// do something if $is_iphone is true
}
you could use #media queries to solve your problem, the below maybe something you could try. You can also you device orientation as a setting to target your devices or set your max width like below and then write your css. Hope this helps.
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {
.class {
background: #000;
}
}

Phonegap, problems with css styling for 480x720, 480x800 and 480x854

I have been working for several days now to solve a css problem for Phonegap.
I have an App showing a map, and some control buttons. I need to set the map size so I have space for the buttoms.
It works for most of the screen resolutions, but for 480x720, 480x800 and 480x854 it doesn't work for me with three different styles. I have seen other here with semilar problems, but still have problems. The three screen resolutions pick the same style.
For instance this works for 480x720:
#media screen and (min-device-width: 455px) and (max-device-width :
720px) and (orientation: portrait){ /* Styles */ }
Blockquote
But then 480x800 choose the same styling.
If I then create a new styling for 480x800:
#media only screen and (min-device-width : 480px) and (orientation:
portrait){ /* Styles*/ }
Then it works for 480x800, but 480x720 use it too.
I have tried many different things, min-device-width, max-device-width etc. Also I can't figure out why (min-device-width: 455px) works for 480x720 (found it here)
Any help would be appreciated :)
This is just off the top of my head but I believe you need to do something like this:
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (max-device-height: 720px) and (orientation: portrait)
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (max-device-height: 800px) and (orientation: portrait)
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (max-device-height: 854px) and (orientation: portrait)
Providing the correct styles for each screen resolution.
