 * I am using the free version and it is great except for an issue I found – when
   I add a feature image to the testimonial the name & details text below the main
   body of testimonial text is not aligning correctly – it is being pushed over 
   to the right from the line below – I cannot post a screenshot so please have 
   a look here: [https://emps.com.au/Dev/](https://emps.com.au/Dev/) the code generated
   is this:
 *     ```
       [testimonials_cycle theme="light_style" count="-1" order_by="date" order="ASC" show_title="0" use_excerpt="0" show_thumbs="1" show_date="1" show_other="1" hide_view_more="0" show_rating="stars" testimonials_per_slide="1" transition="fade" timer="5000" pause_on_hover="true" auto_height="container" show_pager_icons="1" prev_next="1" display_pagers_above="0" paused="0"]
       ```
   
 * Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 * Hey [@murraysimon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/murraysimon/)!
 * It looks like something in your theme’s CSS is setting text-align to center. 
   The following placed into our plugin’s Custom CSS box should do the trick!
 * `blockquote.easy_testimonial{ text-align: left; }`
 * Can you let me know if that does the trick? It works great in my inspector.
 * All the best,
    Richard

 * Hi Richard – many thanks for this, it has improved it, but now text is wrapping
   around the image. That is not really what I was trying to achieve – I actually
   liked it centred, but as you probably saw it was all skewed… I have left it left
   aligned so you can see..
 * You will notice it stand out in the ‘industrial’ testimonial (the one with the
   picture of pipes) that the bottom rows of text are under the picture not in a
   block as would look good.. 🙁 Is it possible to put the image in a table so the
   text section is not affected? I am not sure how to do that but I just wondered
   if that would sort it?

 * Hey [@murraysimon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/murraysimon/) –
 * If you’d like to push the text over so it doesn’t wrap around the image, try 
   adding some left margin to the above snippet.
 * You’ll need to tweak this I’m sure, but something along these lines:
 *     ```
       blockquote.easy_testimonial { 
           text-align: left;
           margin-left: 150px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Best,
    Richard

 * Hi Richard – once again thank you, but it is now wrapping under the text and 
   the stars have gone 🙁 I assume this is the plugin not working correctly? When
   I choose not to have a featured image it works perfectly, but the moment I add
   an image it looks terrible.I am a bit of a css dunce so any more help would be
   appreciated.

 * Hey [@murraysimon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/murraysimon/)!
 * Well, the plugin is working just fine, however the way the default theme is styled
   isn’t exactly what you want. The default theme is meant to have a left aligned
   image and text, and the text does wrap underneath the image.
 * If you center the text, you end up with the first version you have. Personally,
   I would left align all of the text and add a left margin (adjusting the value
   using your inspector to get things lined up right) — that would keep the image
   on the left, all the text left aligned and visible, and nothing wrapping under
   the image.
 * Personally I like the following CSS the best:
 *     ```
       .testimonial_author {
           margin-left: 160px;
       }
       .testimonial_body {
           margin-left: 160px;
       }
       ```
   
 * All the best,
    Richard

 * Hi Richard – that is awesome mate – well done! I am very happy with that and 
   learnt something along the way – thanks for giving your time and effort, much
   appreciated!
