    The home-featured widgets on this site are responsive and behave well at different screen sizes *until* the screen size width goes below 600px. At that point, home-featured-3 and home-featured-4 "disappear" from the screen.

    I went to the style.css file to the @media only command where it identifies max-width of 600 px and changed the width: from 50% to 25% but that did not make a difference.

    Any suggestions? Thank you.

    The problem seems to be here:

    #home-featured {
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 60px 0;
    height: 150px;
    width: 100%;
    }

    If I remove the height: 150px; in Firebug, all four widgets show up again.

    Hi Andrea - thanks for catching this. I get the same results when I access the page via Chrome Inspector. However, when I remove the height from the style.css, the problem still happens.

    Any suggestions?

    The height is still showing in the stylesheet for me. Do you have Cloudflare or a caching plugin active by chance?

    Hi Andrea - the site does not have cloudflare or a caching plugin. When I look in the Chrome inspector and in firebug the height variable has been removed. Not sure why it is showing in your browser/firebug.

    I don't want to set the height too high to accommodate the icons when the page shrinks - the client will not appreciate the size of the home-featured panel. I thought removing the height variable would do the trick.

    Please let me know if you have any other ideas/suggestions.

    Now it's adjusting properly for me and looks good on mobile, but I understand wanting clients to be happy. You could always adjust the width/height of the icons in the media queries section to make them shrink down more, though it would make them awfully hard to tap from a phone.
