Boxes aren't centering.

[JABRONI]

My text is centering just fine but anything in a container doesn't center. Is there a way to make it so the boxes are aligned with the text automatically when I post?

Style Properties -> Message Layout -> Main Content -> Miscellaneous: text-align: center;

That will do it for every post, all content.

Or use the[CENTER][/CENTER] tags for individual posts.

Well see, it is automatically posted from XenMedio so I can't do the center tags and the text align css didn't work either.

Then you need to post in the add-on thread as that is the default style property for post content.

Actually, it's all quote boxes for any kinda coding on the site.

I don't want to center the text, I need to center the containers that contain the text, you know how to do that?

Isn't this type of stuff browser-specific ?

 

[JABRONI]

I looked at it in Chrome & Firefox. They are both the same way; off center.

if you start a convo with a link in it I will take a look for you

is this what you want to do?

 

[JABRONI]

this is what I want to do, I want this

to look like this

i want all containers to auto-center

To do this you will manually have to set the widths of each bbcode block class manually.

Do you want you boxes static sized or do you want them fluid?

 

[JABRONI]

I just want them to be centered. I don't really care. I can only guess to be centered like I desire, they must be at a fixed size?

 

[EQnoble]

well no...but a fluid element that is not the full width of it's parent that is also fluid is slightly more involved

Short story....yes you can.

(make note of your current settings changes before changing them , just grab a screen shot same as you did with the images above this time of your settings.)



On the default style this worked for me

 

[JABRONI]

That worked, thank you so much!

 

[EQnoble]

no problem ....

if that video was halo 2 and not reach ...it might have shown me in a match where everyone is shooting sniper rifles that shoot out bouncy-sticky grenades while playing TeamDM on campaign maps

Good luck with your site

you can set those page widths to px instead of % as well, this way they will be static and the space on the sides of them will be fluid. just another option to have in the pocket
