  I’m using the Sandbox theme. Currently all content sits all the way over to the left. I understand it adjusts to the width of the monitor, but how can I make the entire site sit right in the center?

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

  Hi! To modify WordPress.com themes, you need to purchase the Custom CSS upgrade –

  https://wordpress.com/products/custom-css/

  Once you’ve done that, the CSS to center all your content would look something like this –

  body { margin: auto; }

  Hope this makes sense, but please don’t hesitate to post again if you have further questions. :) Good luck!

  @lastnode, since body is an HTML tag and not a class or ID, the # sign isn not used. I corrected that in your code above.

  @stephmarsh, nice job on Sandbox. I like your site. Nice and clean.
