I am trying to make my website mobile friendly and it works when using inside head
<?php $this->beginPage() ?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="<?= Yii::$app->language ?>">
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">
<?php $this->head(); ?>
</head>
<body>
<?php $this->beginBody() ?>
<?php echo $this->render('//layouts/_top_js'); ?>
<?= Alert::flashes() ?>
<?php echo $this->render('//layouts/_header'); ?>
<?= $content ?>
<?php echo $this->render('//layouts/_footer'); ?>
<?php echo $this->render('//layouts/_bottom_js'); ?>
<?php $this->endBody() ?>
</body>
</html>
<?php $this->endPage() ?>
But when I start using the following code:
php $this->beginBody()
php $this->endBody()
it is completely ignored. Is the viewport code disabled when using the php code to load my pages?
The viewport needs to be explicitly set in the <head> section of your HTML. You should start the page with beginPage() instead of beginBody(), as the second one only renders the <body></body> part of the HTML.
PHP only outputs HTML on the page, in the case of Yii using layouts. You need to check your layout files to make sure they contain the following line:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1">
