Zooming is disabled

meta-viewportOur plugin repairs this

The page prevents visitors from pinching to zoom in on a phone.

Who this affects

Anyone with low vision who needs to enlarge text. This is one of the most common and most frustrating failures on mobile.

Fix it in WordPress

The viewport tag comes from the theme's header.php or a performance plugin. Search the theme for user-scalable and remove it.

What the fix is, technically

Remove user-scalable=no and any maximum-scale below 5 from the viewport meta tag.

Or let the plugin do it

This is one of the failures AccessVane can repair for you. It changes the pages your server actually sends, not a script layered on top, and switching the repair off puts everything back exactly as your theme had it.
