 * Hello Everyone,
 * I created a WordPress site in which some pages uses custom templates using a 
   child theme. My question is what method do you guys use in order to scale all
   pages for all screens to look proeberly.

 * If your other pages are set up responsive, you can probably copy the styles being
   used so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. What theme are you using? Do you
   have a link to your page?

 * See [https://web.dev/responsive-web-design-basics/](https://web.dev/responsive-web-design-basics/)
 * Like janet4now points out, your parent theme probably already does all of this.
   Using the same styles as the parent is a good suggestion, but I’d go a step further
   and build my template off of the parent theme’s, using the same div/class structure
   so that the existing presumably responsive styles will be applied.
 * Of course at some point you need to deviate from the parent template, or there’d
   be no need for a child template 🙂 Use your parent theme as guidance in creating
   media queries to style according to screen width. Try to use the same breakpoints
   already used by the parent. Your browser’s element inspector developer tool is
   very useful in examining what the parent theme does for different devices.
