Minimum width constraint

Hi, I am trying to use this extension with a wiki that has a mobile version. It works well on the main website, but the minimum width of the contact page is too large to show up properly on the mobile site. I have tried and failed to fix it with added css. Any thoughts? Thanks.

You could try setting 'DisplayFormat' => 'vform' and see if that form layout is either narrow enough for your mobile display or easier to adjust with custom css added via RLStyleModules.

3 years later, but same problem.
The contact form uses a table (why?) and thus it's not responsive (example).

Can the extension be re-written to use divs instead of a table?

It could be yes. Someone would need to design the new HTML and CSS that would largely keep the default desktop look and feel the same while making things responsive for smaller viewports. The ContactPage extension is not really under active development by anyone as far as I know, so there really is not an individual or team to ask to prioritize this work. I am sure code review help could be found if anyone volunteered their time to try and make a patch for the layout changes.
