Title: CSS help Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # CSS help * [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/) * I’d like to center my entire blog, but I don’t know how. I’ve attempted to fiddle with margins, but of course I don’t know what I’m doing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

You could insert that and then go through correcting the positioning, but I can’t see a very easy fix right now. * [davidprince](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davidprince/) * (@davidprince) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78175) * In your wp-layout.css find: body { and add to this division (within the curly brackets): margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; text-align:center; That should do it. * Thread Starter [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78177) * I’ll try that.

I’d like to move the whole thing over so that there is less space on the right. * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78179) * The rap div encloses everything, so that is the place to start. As I said though, some elements may behave oddly and need sorting – but that’s why we are here 🙂 * Thread Starter [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78180) * Thank you Podz! * Thread Starter [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78182) * It centered quite nicely now. 🙂 But now the background image isn’t visible and the footer is wider. * [Mark (podz)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/podz/) * (@podz) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78183) * Footer: In index.php, put it above the /div that it is currently below.

A lot of folks find it easy to implement. Good luck. * Thread Starter [adb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adb/) * (@adb) * [21 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-2/#post-78233) * Root, I did check out your Gemini Template. And I will consider it.
