Treehouse StaffHi Abigail Schultz,
Could you elaborate a bit more on what issue you're running into? I'm not really sure what you mean by placing settings that doesn't like the wrapper. Applying margin and width properties should be possible on a div in the same way as on the body tag. If you could provide a snippet of your code or the challenge that you're we can have a look at what might be causing your issue 🙂
