• Whenever I start a new blog entry, the default in the program automatically centers my text. I have to type my entry and then format it to left align. Does anyone know how to set the default to left align automatically? Thanks.

    the theme actually formats the text in post ‘justified’ as default.

    .post {
    	margin: 0 0 40px;
    	text-align: justify;
    	}

    you can edit this in style.css and change it to:

    .post {
    	margin: 0 0 40px;
    	text-align: left;
    	}

    Hi,

    What file name is that code located in?

    Thanks!

    Look in your theme directory for style.css.

    OK. I see it. However, I don’t know how to save…even though I am the owner of the site (i.e. permissions).

    I managed to make the changes, but it is still justifying it.

    press ctrl+f5 while looking at site

    It’s not the viewing that is the issue.

    The issue is that when I go to create a new entry, the entry is automatically formatted to center or justify…even after I made adjustment noted above.

    i checked the site, and it is not the style.css that is causing this behaviour.
    if i remove the alignleft inline style for the paragraphs (in firefox), it is still aligning left.

    maybe there is a fault with the build-in editor ?

    I transferred the file to my computer and edited in notepad then I transferred it back.

    your theme file is ok.
    i am trying to think of reasons why your new posts are by default aligned justified in the editor, instead of left aligned.

    Greetings everyone,

    I found the problem in the style.css doc. I changed the text-align “left” from “center”.

    That fixed it. Thanks for all your help and suggestions!
