Bootstrap automatically adapts your pages for various screen sizes. Here's how to disable this feature so your page works like in [this non-responsive example](../examples/non-responsive/).
<h3>Steps to disable page responsiveness</h3>
<ol>
<li>Omit the viewport <code><meta></code> mentioned in <ahref="../css/#overview-mobile">the CSS docs</a></li>
<li>Override the <code>width</code> on the <code>.container</code> for each grid tier with a single width, for example <code>width: 970px !important;</code> Be sure that this comes after the default Bootstrap CSS. You can optionally avoid the <code>!important</code> with media queries or some selector-fu.</li>
<li>If using navbars, remove all navbar collapsing and expanding behavior.</li>
<li>For grid layouts, use <code>.col-xs-*</code> classes in addition to, or in place of, the medium/large ones. Don't worry, the extra-small device grid scales to all resolutions.</li>
</ol>
<p>You'll still need Respond.js for IE8 (since our media queries are still there and need to be processed).
This disables the "mobile site" aspects of Bootstrap.</p>
- Omit the viewport `<meta>`
- Override the `width` on the `.container` for each grid tier with a single width, for example `width: 970px !important;` Be sure that this comes after the default Bootstrap CSS. You can optionally avoid the `!important` with media queries or some selector-fu.
- If using navbars, remove all navbar collapsing and expanding behavior.
- For grid layouts, use `.col-xs-*` classes in addition to, or in place of, the medium/large ones. Don't worry, the extra-small device grid scales to all resolutions.
