Center Forum

At first I wanted my forum to have a fixed width. I added the "width: 80%" css code into my css. However the change worked, my site had my intended fixed width, but the forum shifted to one side.

Thank You Very Much

Hi,

Ouch, phpBB3 hein ?
So let's try to fixed with this code to paste at the end of css stylesheet :

#wrap {margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;}

[silvergirl59]

Yup phhb3

I found #wrap so I assume you put "#wrap {margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;}" there. But when I added it my forum becomes green (not wanted). I tried putting your code at the end of the css but nothing happened.

Is there a specific place #wrap {margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;} goes under?

Thanks

Hello...
I saw this in your CSS :

body {
background-color: #4c4c4c;
background-image: url('https://2img.net/h/i191.photobucket.com/albums/z301/lastfmbadges/a1/Untitled-4.png');
background-repeat: repeat;
margin-top:150px;
background-attachment: fixed;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size: 62.5%; /* This sets the default font size to be equivalent to 10px */
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 0px;
border-color: #862121;
border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
border-style: solid;
width: 80%
}

You have to correct it like this :

body {
background-color: #4c4c4c;
background-image: url('https://2img.net/h/i191.photobucket.com/albums/z301/lastfmbadges/a1/Untitled-4.png');
background-repeat: repeat;
margin-top:150px;
background-attachment: fixed;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size: 62.5%; /* This sets the default font size to be equivalent to 10px */
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 0px;
border-color: #862121;
border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
border-style: solid;
width: 100%;
}

(and with this, I think you don't need the other code)

But I need to change it to 80 for a fixed width.

Are you sure you want to change page's width ? Or just Body line's width ?
Because that part of CSS is the width if for the page, you shouldn't change it.

If you are sure that you want to modify page's width, put this in your CSS :

body {margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;}

Thanks!! body {margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;} worked, it's exactly how I want my forum to look like.

Thanks alot!
