If you use gantry 5 for your website templates, an extremely useful feature, available via Bootstrap, is the collection of responsive utility classes that can be used to help tweak layouts by providing a simple method of showing or hiding modules.
Insert the following module class suffixes into your module settings to show/hide a module for a particular mode.
Class | Phones (<= 767px) | Tablets (768-959px) | Desktops (960-1199px) | Desktops (>= 1200px) |
---|---|---|---|---|
visible-phone | Visible | Hidden | Hidden | Hidden |
visible-tablet | Hidden | Visible | Hidden | Hidden |
visible-desktop | Hidden | Hidden | Visible | Visible |
visible-large | Hidden | Hidden | Hidden | Visible |
hidden-phone | Hidden | Visible | Visible | Visible |
hidden-tablet | Visible | Hidden | Visible | Visible |
hidden-desktop | Visible | Visible | Hidden | Hidden |
hidden-large | Visible | Visible | Visible | Hidden |
As an example, if you wish to have a login module appear on desktop and tablet devices, but not necessarily phones, you can place hidden-phone
in the Module Class Suffix field. This will allow the module to remain visible on any device displaying the page at a width above 768, allowing you to maintain the look you wish to achieve across multiple device types.
