Good afternoon,

With Google now eliminating any site that it says are not mobile friendly from it's results, I ran the test
https://developers.google.com/webmaster ... e-friendly
On my site and it failed...
Any hints on what could be wrong?

I have seen that issue once. And it was not template related but somehow server related. I have duplicated users site to my own hosting company and ran the test again and all was fine while on users server somehow stylesheets and javascripts files was not available for google test.
Sadly - I can't provide any more informations as user haven't replied since then.

Please contact your hosting company support and ask them to verify why those css and js files are not available when google tool is requesting them.

One of our users just posted about one of possible ways to solve the problem:

It looks like a general Joomla problem and can be resolved by editing robots.txt file.
