    Wait!! Guys, it’s working. I’m on a different device now, so it must’ve been the cache. Thanks to you both!

    So I tried it. I activated the child theme, am editing the child theme. It didn’t change anything. I tried both versions of code. Here’s all the code in my stylesheet.

    /*
    Theme Name:     Child of Pitch
    Description:
    Author:         admin
    Template:       pitch
    
    (optional values you can add: Theme URI, Author URI, Version)
    */
    
    @import url("../pitch/style.css");
    
    #mainmenu {
        margin: 35px auto 0;
        width: 400px;
    }

    With the one menu tweak.

    So basically it displays in a ‘table’ whatever menus items there might be. And the previous statement, of course, says it aligns to center.
    Thanks guys! I’ll try this out on my site ASAP!

    Yes, it isn’t active right now… Being the newbie that I am, the only way I found to look at the code of another file was by changing the theme. Of course I immediately noticed the little bar the lets you select which theme to edit. Lol

    So my child theme already has the import style.css of pitch. So if I copy/paste the code bellow that, will it negate the previous alignment? I wasn’t completely sure after reading that page.

    Andrew: what does the display: table; do?

    Hmm… I did I use a plugin called one click child theme (or something like that) that did everything for me. So there were like two files in the editor… I’ll check out that page.

    So what I would do is create a style.css in the child theme of pitch. Then I would copy/paste above code into that file. As I add menus I just need to adjust width.
    Right?
    Thanks

    So the things I did last evening: I introduced myself to HTML, php, and CSS. Then I returned and looked through the specific part I wanted to change (the navigation bar). But I couldn’t find anything in that specific code that mentioned anything about size and position. I also looked on the home template, but didn’t see anything there either. I accessed the site using the latest version of safari, opened the window where you can see the code of the page, and inspected the navigation bar element (I think it was called the menu bar) and it told me how tall it was, how wide, all that stuff, but I couldn’t find it back in the editor in word press. If anyone wants, I can post the code for the menu (whatever it is! the bar under the logo!) bar here later…

    Thanks! I’ll attempt to mess around with it and see what I can do.

    Ok. I’ll keep that in mind for future posts. I thought many of these issues could be general and not theme specific. Plus, more people can see it here.
    Thanks for the quick replies

    Thanks for the reply!

    I’ll create a child theme. Or try to anyways.
    I did stick a link to my site in there. Near the bottom, so it might be hard to see…
    So should I make new posts with separate questions? Or just leave it like this and let others answer parts of it as they can?
