Center Title in Blogger Dynamic View


Here's a quick one. I've seen a couple of questions about this in the past - how to center blog's title in Blogger's Dynamic View. If you don't have a description set, your title will look isolated on the left, and there will be lots of empty space to the right. Here's how you can bring your blog's title to the center.

Go to Dashboard --> Template --> Customize --> Advanced --> Add CSS --> paste the following code --> Press enter after the last character of the last line } --> Apply to Blog.
#header.header .header-bar span.title{
width: 100% !important;
text-align: center !important;
}

  1. Do you know how to adjust it even further?

    I'm thinkin' a left-center would look best on my blog, and I'm sure they're other who would like to try out more than l, c, and right.

    Much thanks.

    1. Go to Template Designer - Advanced - Add CSS - paste the following code - Press enter after the last character of the last line } - Apply to Blog.

      .title h1{
      position: relative;
      left: 90px;
      }

      Adjust the value 90 accordingly. Cheers :)

  3. Hi Yoboy,

    First of all, huge thanks for your dedication, it's a pleasure to see you operate.

    My question:

    How can we center the pages links in the headbar?

    Thanks.

    1. Hi Vermine,

      I couldnt find an automatic way center the pages links. You can do it manually though. Add the following code to your CSS, and adjust the value 40% accordingly.

      #pages{
      margin-left: 40% !important;
      }

      Cheers :)

    2. Rxcellent, it will do the trick! Thanks a lot Yoboy.

    3. Hi Vermine,

      Replace the previous code with the one below. This one is more flexible and dynamic. You'll notice the difference when you view it in a small-screened laptop.

      .tabs, .ss{
      width: 100% !important;
      text-align: center !important;
      }

      OR (whichever works)

      .tabs, .ss{
      width: 88% !important;
      text-align: center !important;
      }

      Cheers.

    4. Hi Yoga,

      First, sorry to reply late I worked all night.

      Secondly, huge thanks, this is awesome!

      The second option is the best I think, more versatile, since it only switches to a drop down menu when the width gets too small, as opposed to first code which turns the links into a drop down even at full width.

      Anyway, thank you again for having kept your clever mind on my little request, I appreciate it a lot Yoga.

      Cheers to you.

    #header.header .header-bar span.title{
    width: 100% !important;

    OR this? -->

    #header.header .header-bar span.title{
    width: 100% !important;
    text-align: center !important;
    }


    I have done both but (afraid I'll screw up my template, I have not pressed 'update' yet) it's not showing on my preview pane?


    PS: Thanks for your works. Great job !

    1. Hi JK,

      Leave out the numbers. Should be just this:

      #header.header .header-bar span.title{
      width: 100% !important;
      text-align: center !important;
      }

      And the Live Preview box seems to be having some issues for now. If you don't see any changes after inserting the code, just proceed by hitting on 'Apply to Blog', and see if there's any changes when you actually load your blog (not via Template Designer).

    Thanks for all your great advice, much more useful than the crappy Blogger help!

    Here's my blog :

    I followed your instructions to center the title, but for some reason the post titles and the blog titles are not aligned! I also tried fixing the position of the title but it looks weird when i change the width of the browser... Any idea?

    Thx!

    1. Hi Lucie,

      Good question. Try this code instead:

      #header.header .header-bar span.title {

      width: 95% !important;
      }

    2. Hi Yoga,

      Thanks for this excellent resource! Quick question, related to the above. I'm using Dynamic Views and I've noticed the standard position for the post title is slightly off-centre. I haven't centred the main blog title, but the slightly off-centre post title is noticeable (and looks odd) when the contents of the post are centred below it (they don't align). I think I saw you addressing this somewhere, but I can't seem to find it now.

      My blog: www.tomfahy.com

      Any idea how I can fix this? Many thanks. Tom

    3. Hi Jonnie,

      This is what you need. Remove your previous code for header image, and use this instead:

      #header .header-drawer.sticky, #header .header-drawer {
      top: 119px;
      }

      #header .header-bar{
      height: 150px;
      }

      #header:hover .header-drawer, #header .header-drawer.open, .header-ssyby, body.viewitem-open #header .header-drawer {
      top: 150px;
      }

      #header-container {
      height: 190px;
      }

      .viewitem-panel .viewitem-inner {
      top: 85px;
      padding-bottom: 105px !important;}

      #header-container #header.header .header-bar span.title{
      background: url(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--4n7iL4dYe8/T7X79FjNtNI/AAAAAAAAADg/qTdP4e20KXs/s1000/bluejn.png)
      no-repeat center;
      background-position: top;
      margin-left: auto !important;
      margin-right: auto !important;
      height: 150px;
      }


      #header.header .header-bar span.title{
      width: 100% !important;
      text-align: center !important;

      }

      #header.header .header-bar span.title a h1{
      top: 90px;

  14. Great Site! Just a couple of questions on numberu.blogspot.

    1. I only want Classic View available for viewers, but sometimes display slips back to other views and sets "stuck" in timeslide. I have used the following code.

    #Flipcard.ss, #views ul li:nth-child(2),
    #Magazine.ss, #views ul li:nth-child(3),
    #Mosaic.ss, #views ul li:nth-child(4),
    #Sidebar.ss, #views ul li:nth-child(5),
    #Snapsnot.ss, #views ul li:nth-child(6),
    #Timeslide.ss, #views ul li:nth-child(7)
    {
    display: none !important;
    }

    #views{
    display: none !important;
    }

    #header #pages, #header #pages:before{
    border-left: 0px !important;
    }

    2. On Classic view I can't get the post title to center on page. There seems to be a padding-right: 40 px set for .article .article-header .title { Just don't know how to make it behave. :)

    Thanks so much!

    1. Hi Dreg,

      Looks like Timeslide is set as your default view, regardless of the options you have hid from your viewers. To change the default view, first, go to Template Designer - Advanced - Add CSS and backup everything that you have in there, because you're about to lose them. Next, go to Templates under Template Designer, and choose the first option under Dynamic Views - Apply to Blog. That should set Classic view as your default view.

      2) Your post title looks centered to me. Have you got it sorted?

      Cheers! :)

      Delete
  15. Yoga, seems I finally figured out how to get the title to center! Still can't get Classic to be only view and STAY. Also one more curiosity, when you write the css code, what does the !important mean? And how do you know when to use it?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hi Dreg,

      Sorry I didn't see this earlier. And kudos to you for figuring it out!

      As for the 'important' tag, in a nutshell, it is used to set the priority. And here's the longer version: in Dynamic View, we're do not replace the original CSS code.. The original code is very much there. We're just overwriting the original code, as we do not have access to delete them.. In other words, when you add a CSS definition to your 'Add CSS' box, a browser will see two different definition for a particular element when a page loads - the original one, and the one that you defined.. To make sure the tweaked version gets chosen by the browser, we use the 'important' tag.. If you're defining a new CSS code for an element that has no previous definition, you don't have to include the 'important' tag, but it doesn't hurt to include it anyway..

      Delete

If you're the author of the blog that you're viewing, and you're signed-in, try pressing CTRL+F5 on your keyboard to force a hard-refresh, or try clearing your browser's cache/cookies.

      You could also try with a different browser just to make sure your blog's account is okay.

Could you try again with either IE8 or IE10? You should be able to change your post title font if you can your changes to save (Template Designer - Advanced - Post title)

  28. First of all, I found some really helpful tips from here. So huge thanks for helping the community!

    But... after trying to search here and Google, I don't seem to be able to find solution, how to center images in my posts.

    I have already managed to even the width of my text to compensate the images that have 640px width and it looks good. But I also have images with 480px width and I think those would look better if they were centered.

    In my case as you can see, you can just center ALL IMAGES because the ones I used are fixed-width already.

    Firstly a huge thank you, I've found your site massively useful when switching to Dynamic Views but I'm having a problem with centering content on my blog that is driving me crazy. At first I thought it was that my post and page titles were off-center, but now I'm not sure if it's the content background, either way it's making everything look out of line.

      Thanks so much for your reply. To me the title 'Writing' looks like it has more white space to the right than the left of it, which makes it appear slightly off-center. Maybe I'm being too pernickety though! :-) Thanks very much for looking into it.

      Try adding this to your CSS:

      .article .article-header .title{
      padding-right: 0px !important;
      }

      Cheers.

  30. Hi,

    I've been using a lot of your CSS tips to customise my new dynamic views blog funny-joke-pictures.com. They worked fine, but then I noticed that about half the time the CSS is not being loaded properly (in both Chrome and IE). Ctrl F5 would usually fix it, but not always. I tried clearing browser caches etc, but that didn't fix the problem. Then I tried clearing out all the custom CSS and it works fine now. I've trimmed the CSS right back to just customising the view menu and removing the publish info. Just to let you know.

    1. Hi Robert,

      We call this the ghost template effect. We're not exactly sure why this is happening, but the people over at Blogger thinks it is because the amount of contents that needs to be loaded are too large (after modifications), resulting in custom tweaks being disregarded. This claim, however, is not proven true, as the ghost template strikes even when there's no modification involved sometimes.

      Cheers.

  31. Hey.
    I don't know why, but when i paste this link:
    #header.header .header-bar span.title{
    width: 100% !important;
    text-align: center !important;
    }
    into my css, my title just gets a link instead of moving to the center... Why? and what can i do about it?

    1. I can't find a Dynamic View blog in your blog list. What's your blog's address?

    1. Two reasons:

      1) You're not using a Dynamic View template (the tweak above is for DV templates only)
      2) You don't have a title set up.

      What you have is an image of a title. You need to alter this image and re-upload it as your new header.

  34. Hey there. I'd like to display the name of the page I'm currently on in the title. Either it could be part of the title, or the description. The challenge is to update it whenever a page is selected. Any ideas how to do that?

    ReplyDelete

    1. By title, did you mean your blog's title (as opposed to post title)? If yes, this will be extremely tricky and time-taking. Unfortunately, I have been quite busy and I don't have the free time I would like to devote to this tweak.

    1. Hi Sarah,

      See if this is what you're looking for. Go to Template Designer - Advanced - Add CSS - paste the following code - Press enter after the last character of the last line } - Apply to Blog.

      #lead .title{
      text-align: center !important;
      }

      Cheers :)

    2. That look great!!
      Thanks!!

      2 questions pls:

      i) How can I do the same for all posts below (center all post titles on home page?

      ii) You gave me a CSS that extended the post summary to the maximum (towards the right) on the home page. How can I do the same for all the posts below? As you can see the posts below are only half way on the page and do not extend towards the right.

    3. Hi Sarah,

      1) This one should do:

      #lead .title, #fold .title, #feature .title{
      text-align: center !important;
      }

      2) See if this works (please test the effect across multiple devices with different screen sizes):

      #fold .item{
      width: auto !important;
      }

      #fold .has-thumbnail .story{
      min-width: 600px !important;
      }

      Cheers! :D

    1. Hi Francesco,

      What kind of widget are you trying to embed in your page? If you're trying to insert a contact form, the contact forms from www.123contactform.com works just nice with dynamic views :)

  39. Hi Yoga, I have come up with another problem.

    On my blog homepage (www.prettygloss.blogspot.com) whenever I put up a photo which is horizontally wider than vertically longer the post summary moves beneath the photo. You can check it out with my latest post. I tried changing the photo size, I tried changing the page width but its not working.

    Pls help.

    1. I believe this is the effect of trying to fix the width of your posts (I think I gave you the code in your previous code or something). Now I cannot tell for sure, but you can. Save all your code (from your 'Add CSS' box), and remove the codes that you've entered one by one, from the most recent, and see which one fixes it. That must be the culprit.

  41. Hey- your tutorials are amazing! I have no idea about this stuff and it's really helped me customize my blog... thanks so much!

    Currently, my (Dynamic Views) blog title and description are left-justified. I've been trying to use this tutorial and others on your site to figure out a way to: center the title, place the description below the title, and also center the description. I'd also like to move them a little further down, so there is a little more buffer/space at the top of the page. It's a little tight up there.

    So far it's not doing what I want it to. The blog is http://boundtogetherforchrist.blogspot.com. Any advice?

    1. Hello Ann,

      1) This should force your Description to go to a new line:

      #header.header div.header-bar span.title h3{
      display: block !important;
      }
      #header .header-bar .title{
      padding-top: 14px;
      line-height: 30px !important;
      margin-right: 0px !important;
      }
      #header.header div.header-bar span.title h3{
      white-space: normal !important;
      }

      2) This should allow you to adjust the vertical position of your title field from top (also included the code to center it):

      #header .header-bar .title{
      padding-top: 20px !important;
      text-align: center;
      }

      3) This should answer your next question. You'd have to increase the height of your header to accommodate the above. See Step 1 in the link below to get this done:

  42. I am using the Magazine dynamic view. To hide the others I used the following code:

    #header #views {
    display: none;
    }

    #header #pages:before {
    border-left: 0px;
    }

    #header #pages {
    margin-left: 14px;
    }#ContactForm1
    {
    display: none ! important;
    }
    .contact-form-name, .contact-form-email {
    max-width: 200px;
    width: 100%;
    }
    .contact-form-email-message {
    max-width: 400px;
    width: 100%;
    height: 150px;
    }
    }

    Its just something I picked off the internet. But now I also want to make the title center aligned. If I mess with the above code, the other dynamic views also show up. can you please suggest a way by which I can keep only the magazine view and make the title of my blog center aligned? the link for my blog is http://politicsmediasociety.blogspot.in/
