19,315 PointsWooCommerce Styling Problem Mystile
Hey does anyone know why it's difficult to style the css inside the woocommerce theme "Mystile". I am using a correct child theme and what not as well as using bootstrap 3.0 on the site. Now what im trying to do is center the navigation from the right to the center and it's not letting me. Iv used firebug and inspected the element and grabbed the correct element and gave it a red border just to see fi it's working and it did but for some reason I cannot center the menu for the life of me. This is how I called it and the code I used to try and center the Mystile theme Menu:
ul#main-nav.nav.fl.parent {
border: 4px solid red;
margin:auto;
text-align:center;
float:none;
}

Margin auto more than likely won't center anything.
What you'll need to do is give the ul a width and then give each li a width of 100% and then text-align:center that. Text-align aligns text in relation to the size of the element the text is in so if there's no width, the element with text will just be the width of the text.
