Flex does therefore have some known limitations, either due to the limitations nature of content as generated by the current Community Portal and/or due to technical limitations capability of some browsers.
The following are the known limitations:

Feedback or suggestions can be shared in Discourse - Synergetic may review and consider feedback for potential inclusion in future revisions of this custom content. See Flex - Responsive Community Portal skin for updates | ||||||||||||||||||||
Why is there an initial display of the original Portal then the new Flex skin applied? | This is due to the Flex CSS being a skin on top of the original Community Portal. It was implemented this way to provide clients with a responsive Portal in rapid time, without requiring a high degree of change to the original code. In essence the 'regular' Community Portal page loads, then the Flex style overrides this display a moment later. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Will my Community Portal page configuration and security settings be affected? | No - As the regular Community Portal logic loads the page first before the Flex style overlays, your user/role based security and page configuration settings will be respected. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Why is this placed in the ..\Site\Flex folder and not in ..\Site\CSS folder to avoid the initial load of the non-flexible? | Due to some browsers code base not supporting this (for example Internet Explorer/Edge) detection of the browser is required. If it was placed in the Site\CSS folder it would apply to all browsers and would have unpredictable behaviour. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Can I make further changes to this? | Yes, see Flex - Documentation | ||||||||||||||||||||
I have the Pacific - A Community Portal CSS Theme applied? | It is highly recommended to remove this theme as there will be clashes between the two.

What testing was completed on this? | Each page was tested against Functionality and Usability

Is there an easy way to see how it would look on most devices? | Many browsers can emulate the look and feel of multiple devices. Below is one way to do this using the Chrome browser Please note: This is emulation and not exactly true to how the actual device will operate
