  How do I center text? Sometimes I want to center a subheading in a post and I can’t do it, even when I use the space bar to move the text to the center of the page.

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

  Hi there, the usual way to center text is to select it, and then click on the centering icon in the Visual Editor’s toolbar. That’s button #8 in the second screenshot here:

  If you’re selecting a subheading like h1, h2, h3, etc. you may not be able to override its default justification by using that button.

  If you aren’t able to get the centering working by using the button I referenced above, I would be glad to have a look if you provide a link to the post here, and let me know the words you’re trying to center.

  Thanks!
