How to center my website

My whole website is moved to the right of the screen with a wide empty space on the left. So when people with normal comp screen (not wide one, I guess) look at it they have to scroll to the right, which is not very user friendly and some find it quite annoying too. Can someone please point me in the right direction at where to start looking to fix it? It is the margins, the width and how to set it right. Is it something I need to look in CSS file? I am just a beginner and do not know a lot about this. I purchased a templated and just modified it a little but messed up the layout, I think. My site is here:https://www.organicbynature.ca
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated!

Re: How to center my website

Search this site for "template monster" and educate yourself about them and their templates.

As they write outside of the Zen Cart structure and to no standard assistance is limited.

Basically you like the template as delivered with out much of the Zen Cart functionality or you scrap it and get/make a template that conforms

Re: How to center my website

the original template was perfectly centered, but then I might have played around with global settings or something:blush:and it all got messes up...

Re: How to center my website

I did it!!! I found where to change things to center my website, spent half a night though figuring out. If anybody's interested it was the very bottom of CSS MainWrapper %, changed from 100% to 91% and adjust the width too. I guess for many people here it would be a "piece of cake", but it was a huge progress for me! :smile: I feel so much smarter now:smartalec:
