  4. Hi Om,
    Thank you for a lovely theme. I’d like to make sure the text box is centered on mobile devices. It’s great on laptop, but on mobile, it leans to the right. Do you have a code for this? Also, where would I put the code? Additional CSS?

    Thanks!

  5. Hi Om! Thank you for replying. I appreciate it.
    The text box I’m referring to is the blog that one reads IN FULL. So as a reader, you go to homepage, then click on the title of the blog you want to read. Then it opens up so you can read the full article. On a mobile device, the box with the text in it leans to the right. It is not centred.

  7. Thanks so much for your educational tips! I love the uniform appearance provided by the Tortuga grid layout. But I’m wondering: is it possible to shorten the height of the grids? I know that will cut off text in some instances, but I prefer shorter grids if possible. I’m on the Business plan and have not yet installed Tortuga. Doing my homework first. 😀

      1. Ideally, the boxes would all maintain the same shorter height, like in the theme’s demo, regardless of excerpt length. I don’t want to shorten the text for SEO reasons. Thx
