I worked it out. There was a meta setting that needed to be added.

This is how I am setting up my media query

/*------------------------------------------------------------------
[# All Devices under 960px]
-------------------------------------------------------------------*/
@media only screen and (max-width: 959px) {

body {
    width:100% !important;
}
#staticWrapper.container_12 {
    width: 100% !important;
}
.container_12,
div#main_wrapper {
    width: 100% !important;
}
.container_12 .push_3 {
    width: 100% !important;
    padding: 0 30px;
}
div#headerWrapper {
    height: initial !important;
}
#logo-image h2 a {
    width: auto !important;
    height: auto;
    line-height: initial;
}
#logo-image img {
        max-width: 82% !important;
        padding: 0 30px !important;
        width: 100%;
}
#main_area_wrapper {
    padding: 20px 0px;
}
.grid_6.alpha {
    width: 100% !important;
    margin: 0 !important;
}
#logo-image h2 {
    margin-bottom: initial;
    padding-bottom: initial;
}
#logo-image h1 {
        margin: 0;
    }
div#header {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    padding: 20px 0;
}
.links-doug {
    flex-direction: column;
}
}

I need to make one page responsive. The theme is old, the site is going to be archived, and I am helping out a friend. I tried putting in media queries but they are being ignored.

Unfortunately, this custom theme that is very old isn’t set up that way.

I am still having this issue on new installs. Any updates about would be much appreciated.
