I’m centering all my text, etc for this website and I cannot seem to get the video on this page to center no matter what I do. Can you please advise?

I also added onto another question, but how in the world do I make the background of the page dark?

Thanks.

But am still perplexed by the video.

You can add a margin: auto; property to the Video holder element you have there (with ID mep_0). And then add this text-align: center; to your parent div with class wp-video.
So you can add this CSS to the page:

.wp-video {
text-align: center;
}
#mep_0 {
margin: auto;
}

that should do it.

I’m not sure where to put the “margin: auto;” and the “text-align: center;”. Am I adding it to the Style Sheet in editor? If so, where? I only see a couple references to video.

As for the CSS, I can’t add CSS to individual pages (as far as I can tell). I would assume I add it under the Customize/Additional CSS.

I’ve tried putting it in both places and it doesn’t seem to work. Any other ideas?
