Is it still not working?

Tried working with align: code, and no luck so far.
Actually went into the (2) posts and edited them for left alignment, and that fixed them.
Although a new test post came out centered, so the prevailing problem still seems to exist.

So you want everything centrally except posts?

If so, just add text-align: left; to .post_body in global.css

Thanks much.
That seems to have corrected it*.
Dont know how that setting got changed.

*Btw, b4 making the correction, looked at server directories... /theme3 had been added (always has been /theme1 and /theme2, and so deleted /theme3 (is it really needed, and how does it get there every once in a while? ).
That took away the background 'formating' from the pages.
Happened once b4, and came back after some PC temp file cleaning etc.
Not sure about this time.

Actually, since the subject forum is somewhat of a (L-curve) prototype, with only 2 'blog' posts, am thinking about doing a clean reinstall of MyBB and doing only the basic customizing needed for the simple forum, and therefore getting all of the other MyBB basics back in order.
Will probably need to look at deleting the database etc in order to get a clean install ?
Also, will probably try the latest upgrade process, just to see how that works, b4 doing the reinstall.
Just need to get back to square 1, with all this code work etc.
Think the L-curve needs to stop for a while, so can get some day-job work done.
Btw, can a new MyBB forum be on the same server with the old one ?
Not really necessary, but would be convenient... but dont want to make anything more complicated than necessary !

Thanks again for your help !

theme3 is the theme you're currently using, you've just deleted the cached version of your theme, go into each of your stylesheets and save them again.

Yes, you can have more than one forum on the same server.

You could do, or you could keep it as a backup and use a different table prefix or just make a new one alongside it.

If they are in different directories yes. You can use the same database provided you use different prefixes.

Seems like needed to also add 'text-align: left' to '.post_content' to get it to work.
When tried at just '.post_body' still had problem.
