I was building a non-responsive website whose minimum width is 1600px. How to center all content and let all content be visible while viewing on mobile? I set the meta viewport to <meta name="viewport" content="width=1600">, but the content is not center on mobile. And there is a horizontal scrollbar appeared. (on iphone 5) Thank you.
Use <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/> to render the web page in respect to the mobile display.

I have a site with an embed element:
<embed src="https://cf.milan1.nl/" style="width:294px; height: 109px;">
The problem is, on mobile screen the element is tiny, no matter what I tried.
You need to define the initial scale of page on mobile devices so the page fit the mobile resolution. Try this in the header of your page:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
In viewport meta tag in CSS for achieving responsive web design we set width = device-width like <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"> so that the page's width equal to that of the device's width , so that users do not have to scroll to see the page but what about the height ? Does the browser infer the height based on the width and make it device-height ???
The correct meta tag for a responsive website is the following:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
The width=device-width part sets the width of the page to follow the screen-width of the device. The initial-scale=1 part sets the initial zoom level when the page is first loaded by the browser. You don't need to set a specific height, since window dimensions are always both scaled on change. But in case, you can change the content of the meta tag with:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, height=device-height, initial-scale=1">
Have a look here if you have more doubts.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
The width property controls the size of the viewport. It can be set to a specific number of pixels like width=600 or to the special value device-width which is the width of the screen in CSS pixels at a scale of 100%. (There are corresponding height and device-height values, which may be useful for pages with elements that change size or position based on the viewport height.)
Read this https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Mozilla/Mobile/Viewport_meta_tag then hope clear everything.
I have a mobile website but it loads zoomed out. How can I fix this.
You should insert the Viewport meta tag.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
This means that the browser will (probably) render the width of the
page at the width of its own screen. So if that screen is 320px wide,
the browser window will be 320px wide, rather than way zoomed out and
showing 960px (or whatever that device does by default, in lieu of a
responsive meta tag).

You might need to set the viewport
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />

My site's layout isn't responsive so I want it to shrink my whole layout if the user is viewing on mobile devices. I'm using this viewport code <meta name=viewport content="width=1024"> but it won't shrink my layout on mobile view. Anyone know how to fix? my site is http://www.sailormoon.xyz
try this.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=1024, initial-scale=1, minimum-scale: 1, maximum-scale: 1">
or
<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable = yes">

I made it fully non-responsive but the problem is that if we view it in mobile it is displaying the top left part.
Is there any code such as
<meta name="viewport" content="width=SITE_MIN_WIDTH, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">
What should i do to make the website to display fit in mobile view ?
Start with this. At minimal, it will make your website fit the device, but everything will be sized down.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
You should also look in CSS pre-processors, I was blown away by how many CSS files you reference.
I would get rid of the viewport meta tag altogether. If your website was not designed to be responsive, it will only make things worse. See this for more:
Stop using the viewport meta tag (until you know how to use it)
Use the below meta tag for your website
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0">
The meta tag above explains everything:
width="device-width" width of the website is equal to device width
initial-scale=1.0 means the website will not scale to fit the device screen
when we set minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0 and user-scalable=0 means user will not be able to scale the webpage (it will turn off pinch-zooming by setting maximum-scale to 1, or using user-scalable=no. )
