Fix / Correct Image Alignment in WordPress Blog (Video)

*

<—— A quick reminder to Retweet if you enjoy the post … Thanks!

Yesterday I decided to add the Tweet Meme plugin (far left – button that allows you to easily retweet this blog post) and I decided I wanted it to appear on the upper left of my post. I usually align my images to the left of the text so I decided it would look better if I moved the images to the right of the post.

I logged into my admin and did the edit to move the image to the right but it didn’t work. It showed it moved right in the admin panel but it wouldn’t move on the actual live post. I googled the problem and found a fix (so I thought). I decided to turn on the screen capture so I could show you how to “fix” this problem. I followed the instuctions and it didn’t work. As I was scanning the style.css file (where I was to put this “fix” code) I noticed some image code already in there. Sure enough there was an error in the code on this file.

Now … this might be a little advanced for some of you but I want you to watch this video so you can learn from this. If you do enough with WordPress (or any blog/site) you will eventually have a reason to dive into the code to look for something or to make some adjustments. (Hey … never say never! LOL).

The one mistake I made that I want to stress is that I should’ve copied that file on to my desktop BEFORE I started messing around with that code! That was if I did anything that didn’t work or “broke”something I’d have the page that I started with.

NOTE: I’m sorry the audio on this video has some weird background buzz … sorry about that!

I hope you enjoyed the video. I plan on doing a lot more of these videos to capture what I get up and do each day for “work.” Let me know if there’s something specific you need to learn and if I know how to do it I’ll do a video for you. *SmiLes* Suzanne

P.S. So … how do you like the Tweet Meme? If you enjoyed this post please try out the new button and give this a retweet! LOL Thanks!

UPDATE: My husband had the same problem on one of his blogs and I realized that I didn’t post a link to the code I was referencing in the video. (Sorry). So here’s a link to the post on the WordPress forum: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/202431
