Origami Menu – How to align the text to the left?

Hi,

I love the Origami theme and I upgraded to premium. I do, however, think it’s odd that everything in the menu (including sub-menu items) is centered. I’d like the menu text (including sub-menu text) to be left-aligned.

I’d also like the post titles to be left-aligned. What part of the CSS do I need to change?

    Hi Geo222,

    You can change this with some custom CSS. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    #menu ul {    text-align: left !important;}

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    Thanx Alex, now my menu items are aligned. My post titles and various elements (like the time stamp) are still centered. How do I left-align those as well?

    Hi Geo222,

    Did you just get notified about my reply? Or are you coming back to this thread? :S

    Please navigate to WP AdminAppearanceCustom CSS and add the following CSS:

    Post / Archive Title:

    h1.entry-title, h1.archive-title {
    text-align: left;
}

    Post Meta:

    .post .post-info {
    text-align: left;
}

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    Hehe. Yes I came back to the thread. I’m so sorry about the thread necro-mancy. I’ve been working overtime for quite some time and had absolutely no time to work on my blog template. BUT I’m back!

    And thank you, the code worked.

    Is it possible to get the sub-items left aligned also (Origami Premium if it matters)

      Hi Jemostrom,

      Yes, but you’ll need to use some custom CSS. Please navigate to WP AdminAppearanceCustom CSS and add the following CSS:

      #menu ul ul li {
	text-align: left
}

      You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.
