Question thread #122

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

Oh, hm—it seems like that layout doesn't have the meta tag that lets non-desktop devices render the page responsively. It should be this:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

...and it should go in the <head> tag, but apparently user layers aren't allowed to add meta tags in the advanced layout customization. Which is why someone's writing a patch for it in the DW codebase like right now, I think, ahaha

To be clear, once this DW patch goes through, will I need to do anything to this site specifically to make it mobile responsive? Will the CSS provided still be necessary after that?

update: as it turns out I am patching these directly into the theme in the same code push, so! you will not need it 👍
