Hide JS Function at certain screen width

Question

I'm using a jQuery plugin for a fixed social media bar on my website. The bar overlaps content on the website when in mobile, so I'm trying to hide the bar completely on mobile view.

Answer 1

It is much easier to do that using CSS and a media query, eg

 @media screen and (max-width: 700px) { .contactButton { display: none; } } 

 <button class="contactButton">Button</button> <button class="contactButton">Button</button> <button class="contactButton">Button</button> <button class="contactButton">Button</button>

If you need to use script, here is one way

 window.onresize = function() { if (window.innerWidth < 700) { $(".contactButton").hide(); } else { $(".contactButton").show(); } } 

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <button class="contactButton">Button</button> <button class="contactButton">Button</button> <button class="contactButton">Button</button> <button class="contactButton">Button</button>

Updated after a comment/question edit

Here is an update of your newly posted code sample, where I added 1 rule and 1 property to your CSS (see comments in the CSS)
