Hey there –

Are you referring to search in your footer widget? Add this to your CSS editor and let me know what you think:
```
#footer .widget {
	float: none;
	display: inline-block;
	margin: 0 auto;
}
```
It will shrink the search bar and get everything more centered. Let me know if you have any questions or issues.

Cheers

Hi, tried that but nothing change? It’s no big deal but the word search just looks wrong not centered or to the left.

Are you talking about the footer or the left sidebar?
If it’s the sidebar, add this and see if it’s what you’re looking for:
```
#searchform {
text-align: center;
}
```
If it’s the footer, please explain exactly where you want to place the searchbox and the “search” button.

That did it…thank you so much. Appreciate it. I know a little CSS but just seem to never come up with the right code. Think I better get my books out and start from scratch. Thank you again…

You’re welcome.
And what about the footer search widget? Do you like it where it is?
