1458522 - wiki.mozilla.org randomly serving pages with mobile style layout

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Websites :: wiki.mozilla.org, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

Since at least the end of January, wiki.mozilla.org pages randomly get served with the style for mobile/touch (?) devices even to notebook/desktop users. Ctrl+Shift+R can fix that, sometimes it takes more than one attempt.

I have not been able to confirm this observed behaviour and there have been no further reports in just over two years.

Going to close the bug as 'worksforme'. If the reported behaviour is seen again we can reopen this bug.

Just got served https://wiki.mozilla.org/WeeklyUpdates/EmergingTechnology#May_18th.2C_2020 with a mobile style. Reload changed it to desktop styling.

Still happening often to me as well.

Strangely enough, when actually on mobile, clicking on the "Desktop" link at the bottom of the page seems to do nothing.

Please add "MozillaWiki" to the title of this issue too. It's still happening.

Major update to WMO installation three weeks ago on 3rd December 2024. I have not seen, or seen reported, a reoccurrence.
