Disable ONE of the Twitter Bootstrap responsive layouts

I would like to disable one of the Responsive layouts. Whatever the second smallest layout is before it switches to the mobile view.

As an improvement to spinningarrow's way to do this when using LESS is to set the @gridColumnWidth768 and @gridGutterWidth768 to match @gridColumnWidth and @gridGutterWidth like so:

@gridColumnWidth768: @gridColumnWidth;
@gridGutterWidth768: @gridGutterWidth;

As a rule, I try to leave alone vendor files and only edit them as a last resort. This allows me to fix this issue without having to edit the core bootstrap files.

If you aren't compiling LESS, the best way I've found is going into bootstrap.css and commenting out the size you don't want active. The CSS is pretty well-organized, and disabling one of the sizes doesn't appear to affect anything else.

(Of course, you have to be careful you don't re-enable them when updating Bootstrap.)

  • call your css after the bootstrap call.
  • In your css copy the row, span css form the layout you want and place it in your css.
  • change the media query to something like this (The max width is the width you like to stick to):
@media (max-width: 1200px) {
    .row {
        margin-left: -30px;
        *zoom: 1;
    }
    .row:before,
    .row:after {
        display: table;
        content: "";
        line-height: 0;
    }
    .row:after {
        clear: both;
    }
    [class*="span"] {
        float: left;
        margin-left: 30px;
    }
    .container,
    .navbar-static-top .container,
    .navbar-fixed-top .container,
    .navbar-fixed-bottom .container {
        width: 1170px;
    }
    .span12 {
        width: 1170px;
    }
    .span11 {
        width: 1070px;
    }
    .span10 {
        width: 970px;
    }
    .span9 {
        width: 870px;
    }
    .span8 {
        width: 770px;
    }
    .span7 {
        width: 670px;
    }
    .span6 {
        width: 570px;
    }
    .span5 {
        width: 470px;
    }
    .span4 {
        width: 370px;
    }
    .span3 {
        width: 270px;
    }
    .span2 {
        width: 170px;
    }
    .span1 {
        width: 70px;
    }
    .offset12 {
        margin-left: 1230px;
    }
    .offset11 {
        margin-left: 1130px;
    }
    .offset10 {
        margin-left: 1030px;
    }
    .offset9 {
        margin-left: 930px;
    }
    .offset8 {
        margin-left: 830px;
    }
    .offset7 {
        margin-left: 730px;
    }
    .offset6 {
        margin-left: 630px;
    }
    .offset5 {
        margin-left: 530px;
    }
    .offset4 {
        margin-left: 430px;
    }
    .offset3 {
        margin-left: 330px;
    }
    .offset2 {
        margin-left: 230px;
    }
    .offset1 {
        margin-left: 130px;
    }
}

If you are compiling from the LESS files, this is quite easy. Open up responsive.less and under "MEDIA QUERIES" comment out or remove the @import declaration for whichever layout you don't want. For example, if you didn't want the Tablets to regular desktops one, the code would look like this:

// MEDIA QUERIES
// ------------------

// Phones to portrait tablets and narrow desktops
@import "responsive-767px-max.less";

// Tablets to regular desktops
// @import "responsive-768px-979px.less"; // commented this out because I don't like it

// Large desktops
@import "responsive-1200px-min.less";

After that just recompile bootstrap.less and you should be done.

If, on the other hand, you're not compiling from bootstrap.less and are using bootstrap-responsive.css directly, you can search for the media query for the specific device and remove/comment out that section.

For example, removing the portrait tablet one would look like (in bootstrap-responsive.css):

/* some CSS code above this */

.hidden-desktop {
  display: none !important;
}

/* comment out the following rule entirely in order to disable it */
/*
@media (max-width: 767px) {
  .visible-phone {
    display: inherit !important;
  }
  .hidden-phone {
    display: none !important;
  }
  .hidden-desktop {
    display: inherit !important;
  }
  .visible-desktop {
    display: none !important;
  }
}*/ /* stop commenting out, we want everything below this */

@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 979px) {
  .visible-tablet {
    display: inherit !important;
  }

/* More CSS code follows */

To find out which @media query corresponds to which device width, take a look at http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/scaffolding.html#responsive; the media queries are given there along with the device sizes they correspond to.
