Hi, @locka
How do you expect for the slideshow text to change on mobile? What is the link to your website?

Hi Ina,
Thank you for getting back to me I did manage to fix it by giving it it’s own css class and using the following CSS: –
@media (max-width: 768px) {
.CS-SlideshowText {
font-size: 15px !important;
}
}
I’d just expect if it’s a responsive theme then it would respond to the size of the screen and adjust accordingly text size to better fit. Is CSS the only way to fix this?
I just seem to find lots of sections that do not work out of the box as expected. Was hopping the that wordpress had moved on a little since the last time I used. Going to be long process in redesigning our running web site.
Unfortunately Id love to share my website but it’s currently only a local site and has no public access.

Hi, @locka
Inspiro is a responsive theme, but it’s the block editor that has limitations in customizing how the blocks display on mobile. You can use a plugin that adds additional responsive settings for an easier and more flexible setup. Unfortunately, the block editor doesn’t include these settings by default yet.
Inspiro is integrated with Elementor and includes starter sites for it. You might try to build your layouts with it as it includes customizable responsive settings.

Thanks for the reply.
I’m a little surprised this isn’t something that could be handled within CSS or the theme’s JSON configuration (which, as I understand it, is the preferred approach for defining styles and behaviour these days), particularly for handling mobile layouts. It feels like something that should be relatively straightforward for the theme to control.
I’m aware of Elementor and have used it before, but I’m trying to avoid adding unnecessary plugins to the new site. The aim is to keep things lightweight and avoid introducing extra complexity or performance overhead. After all, it’s just a running club website, so it shouldn’t require a large number of plugins to handle fairly basic functionality.
Another factor is that some of the site content will be updated by people who aren’t familiar with WordPress. Because of that, I’m trying to keep the editing experience as simple and consistent as possible.
Much of what I’m doing with the redesign is focused on creating a more modern look while avoiding the need to manually style every block. I’ll be creating patterns to make content creation easier, but ideally most of the styling should already be handled automatically by the theme. The more default styling that can be applied globally, the simpler it will be for others to maintain the site.
Thanks again for your help.
@locka do you by any chance use a plugin for the homepage slideshow? Can you at least provide some screenshots of the issue? What block do you use to create the slideshow/hero area?
The theme displays fine by default on our end. You can check it here:
