Bulletproof is fairly thorough about defining rules in the stylesheets. Many themes/template are not quite so thorough.

Forget that for a moment. You are using the blue stylesheet. Open that stylesheet in your favorite text editor (/templates/bulletproof/blue_style.css)... scroll to the bottom of the file and add the following if you want CENTER alignment:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry p{
    text-align: center;
}
If you want full justification, then add this in lieu of above:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry p{
    text-align: justify !important;
}
Let us know if that does not produce the desired effect and we will keep working on this until you get what you want!!! :)
Does that force that specific type of justification for everything in the article?

It could - if your entry had any other paragraph tags.

I'm not entirely sure how you are inserting that block into your entries, but I think you mentioned a script. Any chance you could wrap that output in a class="whatever" so you could just provide rules for that particular class??

All I use is the WYSIWYG editor included in serendipity. No scripts at all other than the html nugget plugins. Well the polls and blogrolls are a script but that is edited at the poll site not my blog. All I do is put the poll and blogroll script in a html nugget.

I think I am not being clear on this. All I want is to be able to use the WYSIWYG editor the way it was meant to be used for Serendipity. I dont use any scripts except for polls, blogrolls etc.

I wanted to send a big thank you to Don Chambers for going so far out of his way to help me with this issue.

What it really comes down to is that the WYSIWYG editor in Serendipity doesnt work seamlessly with BP.

If you dont mind some hand coding its no big deal. Don Chambers even went to my blog and manually rewrote some code in the html nuggets for me to make them work with BP.

This is a really nice template folks and I look forward to using it for a long long time.
