Just add this to any css elements (such as #content) that need to be left-aligned into your theme’s style.css:
text-align: left;
Or if you want full justification (align left and right margins):
text-align: justify;
First, the following in the head of your header.php doesn’t help. In fact, it hurts:
<p align="left">
Remove it immediately. Honestly.
After you’ve done that check this validation of your site and fix the boo boo. That will clean up what might be causing the trouble.
I found the “text-align:center” in several places in your CSS but the truth is that if you have a non-closed div somewhere, it could be applying this centered style through to your post.
Finding Your CSS Styles might help you find the problem style.
I am having the same problem. For some reason, all my post text is centered. The theme came like this, so it has a mistake.
I don’t know CSS super well, but I have been looking and looking, trying to figure out what is wrong and I just can’t.
Can anyone help me??

There is not #content tag but the #body tag appears OK:
body {
font-family: ariel, helvetica, sans;
font-size: 62.5%;
color: #555;
text-align: left;
margin-top: 0px;
background: #F7F7F7 url(images/background.jpg) repeat-y center top;
}
/* The body * will remove all default browser styles */
body * {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-decoration: none;
border: none;
color: #444;
list-style-type: none;
font-weight: normal;
text-align: left;
}
Thank you!!!! I’d appreciate any hint at all.

Thanks for looking!!
Add to the
#left_col p in css file
text-align: left;
moshu,
Thank you SO MUCH! That did it. I would have NEVER figured that out.
By the way, I just found your “Visual Anatomy of a WP 1.5 Theme” and I’m going to really study it. My goal is to really learn these blogs, even though I’ll probably never be a PHP programmer or totally figure out CSS. Thanks for doing that.
