Universally change text alignment

What theme did you come from and which did you change to?

I would assume that this will be some simple CSS added to the site.

Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks.

Thank you both for your replies! The theme I changed to is called “Traverse Diary” and here is a long to a post (all of them changed the text to center alignment): https://balancedandblissful.com/follain-favorites/

Oh, and I came from BusinessX theme.

I am hoping it is a simple coding fix!

I think this is like what you want, except with left in there rather than right.

Try it out and let us know.

I tested out the fixes in that other post. It partially did what I wanted (sent all the text in posts to the left), but also had some unwanted results (pushed the text in all of my menus and titles to the left as well.

Is there a way to code that I want the text in my posts to go to the left without moving everything on the entire website to the left?

This CSS:

.entry-content {
    text-align: left;
}

To add or override CSS: use the “Additional CSS” option in the customizer. https://codex.www.ads-software.com/CSS#Custom_CSS_in_WordPress

Learn to use the Chrome Developer Tools to help you see and test changes to your CSS.

I need to brush up on my css. I know enough to be dangerous, but not completely effective.

Definitely going to do some reading on the Dev tools. They are great but again, just enough to be dangerous. Thanks for posting that link and sorry I couldn’t completely help out.

This is all helping me learn as well. Thanks @sterndata.

Steve – you are my hero! What you suggested worked perfectly. Thank you ever so much.
