# Explorer property grid empty on mobile

On mobile, the HomeRunner explorer shows its search form, but the property grid stays empty. This happens on Divi-built sites when the module containing the [homerunner-explorer] shortcode has per-device (phone or tablet) settings.

**Why this happens.** When device-specific settings are present, Divi 5 rewrites a module's content at narrow widths. This disconnects the explorer after it has loaded.

**Quick check.** On a desktop browser, shrink the window until the layout switches to tablet width. If the property grid disappears at that point, the page has this problem.

**How to fix it.** Clear two things on the module that holds the shortcode:

1. **Content** tab: remove any phone or tablet responsive variants on the field holding the shortcode. Right-click the field label, choose **Reset**, then paste the shortcode back once so a single value applies to all devices.
2. **Advanced** tab, **Visibility**: uncheck anything under **Disable on** for phone and tablet, and remove per-device display conditions.

Check the parent row and section for the same toggles.

After saving, exit the builder and reopen it to confirm the change persisted, as a first save can sometimes fail to stick. Then clear the site cache and reload the page on a phone.

**Different layouts for desktop and mobile.** If you need them, use CSS-based show/hide rather than Divi per-device content settings around any HomeRunner widget.
