OK, so my site is about 450 pages in total, no scripts and all done by hand from about 3 or 4 different templates that I coded myself and use and reuse dependant upon the page required.
So google has started whining at me and sending me emails about not being mobile compatible. from certain clickable elements being too close together on 5 certain pages, to 'viewport not set' and 'text to small' on 8 more...
Now onto my question. I fixed the 5 pages by slamming a space between the 'purchase' link and the 'preview' link. It looks shitty imho, but google is happy apparently. However, it doesn't seem to have an issue with the other 30 or so identical pages, where the links are all in exactly the same place as they always have been !
So that brings me onto the remaining 'selected at random' 8 pages that don't have 'viewport set' and have text that's to small.
Point being that viewport is not set on any of the other 440 identically coded pages nor is the text any different size either ! Yet google seems happy with all the rest - Makes no sense.
It's hardly worth me hiring someone to fix these 8 pages, and likewise I could make the text bigger on these 8 'random pages' but its still gonna make the pages look shit ! So Im wondering if look into this viewport thing (Which I'll be honest, I don't really understand, nor really want to understand any more than 'put this bit of code in here' ) But will the viewport thing fix the text issue?
And why has it chosen these pages at random? I'll show below a screen grab of the issues I've fixed and then the 2 identical pages of identical links for the other two issues...
Anyhooo. What should I do to make google happy? And why do you think its just choosing pages at random to complain about? I mean, if this viewport is so important, why not complain about EVERY page on the site? It's not on any others either !
Any ideas / advice etc, gratefully listened too.
& Im Sorry this post isn't about poo...
