  My theme on my website centers all my text when I create a new post or page. Want I want to do is change the theme to allow left aligned each time a new post page is created. Is there a way to change that permanently?

  Hi there – could you provide a link to the site you’re referring to so we can have a look directly? I’m not seeing any active WordPress.com sites on this account.

  If you’re running the WordPress software on your own hosting, you can get help in the WordPress.org forums:

  http://wordpress.org/support/

  You’ll need a free WordPress.org account to post – if you don’t already have one, you can register here:

  https://wordpress.org/support/register.php

  Be sure to provide a link to your site when you post so people can help you more easily.

  Hi thank you the link is:

  I’m hoping to change the theme so that the text aligns left like here:

  At the moment to align text left it needs to be changed each time a post/page is created

  Hi @wdascwebite, it looks like you are using WordPress but you are not hosted here at WordPress.com. For self-hosted WordPress sites such as yours, I would suggest asking for help from the theme author directly or ask in the volunteer-based WordPress.org Themes and Templates forum.

  For general questions on self-hosted WordPress.org installations, visit http://wordpress.org/support/.

  The differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org.

  I did take a quick peek at your training changes page and the following CSS should take care of that for you.

  .art-postcontent, .art-postcontent li, .art-postcontent table, .art-postcontent a, .art-postcontent a:link, .art-postcontent a:visited, .art-postcontent a.visited, .art-postcontent a:hover, .art-postcontent a.hovered {
      text-align: left;
  }
