Twitter bootstrap 3 responsive but should be fixed

Question

I am under the impression that there is not a fixed grid system with the new Twitter Bootstrap 3. Am I correct in making this assumption? I've searched the documentation but all I find is the new grid system that is responsive. The project that I am currently working on does not require the site to be responsive. There is probably a simple solution here.

Answer 1

Yes, you are correct in that the new grid is fluid only. You can create a simple fixed layout with a wrapper like this..

<div class="container-fixed">

.. the usual Bootstrap markup here...

</div>

CSS

.container-fixed {
  margin: 0 auto;
  max-width: 800px;
}

Update for Bootstrap 3.1

The container-fluid has returned in Bootstrap 3.1.. http://www.bootply.com/121222

Answer 2

Not sure if this was written at the time of the original question, but the documentation gives the steps on how to disable the responsiveness.
