impulse2 not mobile friendly according to google How to Configure the Viewport

Hello I am human enough and I found the secret word! (obviously)

Link to my forum: www dot mwrakia dot gr
SMF version: 2.0.5 and installing to 2.0.9

Default Forum Language: Greek
Theme name and version: imPulse2

Mods installed: A lot...
Related Error messages:
Google's Mobile-Friendly Test says the website is failing to pass. Also from 21 of April this is going to hurt the overall google rating. I am trying to change whatever I can.

So,
Is there an easy way to Configure the Viewport?

I haven't kept up on the details of Bloc's themes, but I'm wondering if his impulse theme was even made with mobile in mind? Regardless, I think google is only looking for this tag to be in the <head> of the theme.

Code Select

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

Put that somewhere before the </head> tag in the index.template.php file. See if that helps.

The theme isn't mobile-optimised no. So testing for it will always fail.

Great suggestion adding the meta tag, Brad.
