Mobile fixes on neumangroupre.com

Checked and fixed 3 September 2026. Everything below was measured in a real Chrome at a 390 pixel wide screen — the width of an iPhone. Every link opens the real live page, so you can check it yourself on your phone.

1. The listing page was 10× wider than your phone

This is the one you caught. On a listing, the page measured 3,860 pixels wide on a 374 pixel screen — about 3,486 pixels of sideways scroll.

What caused it: the strip of small photo thumbnails under the main picture. There are 27 of them in a row, about 3,844 pixels end to end. It was meant to scroll on its own inside a little window. It never did, because the column holding it was allowed to grow to fit its contents instead of staying the width of the screen. So the strip stretched the column, and the column stretched the hero photo, the text, the cards and the share buttons with it.

The fix: tell that column it is allowed to be narrower than its contents. The thumbnail strip then scrolls inside its own little window, the way it was designed to, and nothing else is dragged wide.

Look at the two grey scrollbars in the “before” picture — one under the beds/baths row, one under the tabs. They are gone in the “after”. The stat boxes also went from one squeezed line with cut-off numbers (1.., $.., C..) to three clean rows that spell out 1,048 SQ FT, 45 DAYS ON MARKET, $865/mo HOA, Condominium.

2. Every page had an nginx “404 Not Found” stapled to the bottom

The server was told to append a small file called _dm_guard_tail.html to the bottom of every page. That file did not exist. So instead of the file, the server appended its own “404 Not Found” error page — on every single page of the site. You saw it at the bottom of your screenshot, under the footer.

It also meant the content protection that file loads (no copy, no right-click) had not been running at all.

The fix: the missing file was recreated. The 404 block is gone site-wide and the protection is running again.

Check it yourself: scroll to the very bottom of the home page or the about page. No error text.

3. The blog and campaign links all went to a dead page

The Florida relocation hub links to 8 articles, and the server has redirect rules for 10 marketing URLs. Every one of them returned 404. The article files were still sitting in the old website folder and were never carried over when the site was rebuilt on the new one.

The fix: all 43 article files were copied across. All 8 linked articles and the campaign redirects now load.

4. Buttons too small to hit with a thumb

The accepted minimum for a tap target on a phone is about 44 pixels. Anything under that and people miss it. On the listings page, 1,264 controls were under 40 pixels. The worst was the “Compare” tickbox on each card at 13 pixels — roughly a grain of rice.

Check it yourself: open the listings page and try to tick Compare on a card with your thumb.

5. The Feedback / Bug tab sat on top of the words

It was a vertical strip pinned to the middle of the left edge, printing straight over the headline paragraph and the buttons. It now sits as a small tab in the bottom right corner, stacked above the “Chat with us” bubble instead of on top of it.

6. The login was broken on all 121 pages — since 31 August

Not a mobile problem, found on the way. The file that runs sign-in, prestige-auth.js, had three duplicated lines accidentally left at the end of it on 31 August. That is a syntax error, so the browser refused to run any of the file. Sign-in, the account menu and the usage meter were dead on every page for three days.

Fixing that uncovered a second fault hiding behind it: two separate pieces of the file both borrowed the browser’s network function under the same name, so the second one overwrote the first one’s copy and it ended up calling itself forever. Both are fixed, and the cache marker was bumped so people who already loaded the broken copy get the good one.

Check it yourself: open the login page — the account menu appears in the header again.

7. One page scrolled sideways because of a single word

On the neighborhood census page the headline reads NEIGHBORHOOD CENSUS DATA in large spaced-out capitals. The word “NEIGHBORHOOD” on its own measured 381 pixels inside a 322 pixel box and would not break across lines, so it pushed the whole page 35 pixels sideways. The headline now shrinks to fit and is allowed to break. (The map on that page was fine — it was the first thing that looked guilty, and it was not.)

Where the fixes live

All 321 page files are generated by one of 48 build scripts. Hand-editing a generated page is pointless — the next build deletes it. So none of the page files were touched.

Instead the mobile fixes are in one new stylesheet, /_mobile_touch.css, which the server attaches to every page as it is served. That means it covers every page including the sub-folders (/buy/, /invest/, /areas/, /j/, /listings/), it cannot be wiped by a rebuild, and it only applies on narrow screens and touch devices — the desktop site is untouched.

The real page count — and 82 pages nothing links to

My first version of this page said the site had 277 pages. That was wrong: it counted internal working documents (the review/ and outline/ folders, the site tree, the tools map — and this page itself). Corrected, by crawling every link starting from the home page:

The /j/ Florida relocation hub and its articles - nothing on the site links to /j/ at all (57)

/market/<city> - a SECOND set of the same 17 cities you already have at /areas/<city> (18)

Everything else (7)

What I checked, and what I did not

• Checked: 29 main pages plus a spread of sub-folder pages, measured at 390px. All now at zero sideways scroll.
• Checked: all 128 top-level pages return a valid response (125 OK, 3 deliberate redirects to the REmined tools).
• Not yet checked: the remaining sub-folder pages one by one. The stylesheet reaches them, but I have only spot-checked about 25 of roughly 150.
• Not checked: the internal planning pages (site-tree, tools-map, tool-plan, review/) — those are working documents, not the product.

Still open — needs your call

• The gold band across the top of the listings page says the feed refreshes every 4 hours, but the small line under it says new listings arrive within two hours. Those contradict each other. The 4 comes from the live feed; the 2 is hard-coded. Which is right?
• That same gold band is partly hidden behind the sticky header on a phone — the first line is cut in half. It is inserted after the header, but the header floats above the page rather than sitting in it.
• The 35 blog articles that are not linked from anywhere are now reachable again by direct URL. Say the word if any should stay retired.
