 * Try this CSS:
 *     ```
       table.gadget {
           margin: 0 auto;
       }
       ```
   
 * I think you may be using a custom CSS plugin or similar. Just place the rule 
   in there.

 * [@dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave/), don’t suggest people to add
   code without first creating a child theme!
 * [@jen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jen/), first, create a child theme
   following this [guide](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).

 * [@dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave/) nevermind you were right I
   just needed to add !important to it and now it works

 * Yes, you did have to add the !important tag. Best of luck to you!

 * Thanks [@respectyoda](https://wordpress.org/support/users/respectyoda/). The 
   theme I’m using actually allows you to put in your own custom css in their theme
   options section.

 * [@jen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jen/), you are welcome. That’s great!
 * [@dave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dave/), you can’t say, “I think…”
   and make an assumption. It is just best to explicitly state that one needs to
   either use a custom CSS plugin or create a child theme.
 * Anyway, I am glad this is resolved! Speaking of this topic being resolved, Jen,
   can you mark this topic resolved? Thanks.

 * [@respectyoda](https://wordpress.org/support/users/respectyoda/): My comment 
   was based on looking at the code and seeing evidence of a custom css plugin or
   similar. Turns out I was right.
