  Hello! I used custom CSS to shorten the width of the paragraph block on one of my posts. But now the block is aligned left (the text inside is still aligned center). The custom CSS is:

  • .authorborder {
  • width: 65%;
  • }

  How can I center the paragraph block now?!

  It’s for this page! https://staging-f686-lacrosseextras.wpcomstaging.com/2024/08/18/nicole-humphreys-year-without-lacrosse/?preview_id=18864&preview_nonce=4c6c517e97&preview=true&_thumbnail_id=18865

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, I’m not sure that I’ve understood, you are trying to make only one post on your site narrower? Or is this a change you are trying to make to all blog posts on the site?
  
  The CSS can be very different if you intend this to be affecting one post only and I’m not sure that CSS is the best solution so I’m hoping you can share a bit more background on why you are needing this change, thanks!
