 * I deleted a couple of side widgets from my website and the text width went full
   length and looked messy
 * I tried changing the text width by adding
 * .single-content {
    max-width: 600px; margin: 0 auto; }
 * to my custom CSS in my Theme
 * Now the text content has gone too small and it wont let me change it back again.
   I’m very unfamiliar with CSS so don’t know what to do now. I’d also like to justify
   the text so it looks neater
 * Can you Help?
 * My website is [http://www.vitalitycolonics.co.uk](http://www.vitalitycolonics.co.uk)

 * Comment your existing CSS.
 * Then add this:
 *     ```
       .onecolumn .mainbar {
       width: 80%
       }
       ```
