    If possible, I'd like to change the appearance of categories from how they are now. As it is now, they images are not centered, and on the whole the page doesn't look great. I really want to make these pages look like the frontpage does, with many thumbnails side by side. Can this be done?

    Thanks for the reply. The link to my website is in the original post, and here it is unhyperlinked:

    I would just prefer to have the category styled in the same way as the homepage, with thumbnails instead of a long list going down the page :). Especially since the images aren't centered. Because there is no preview text, and no purchase button, the result looks really different from the demo.

    Hi Bsufay!

    Please paste the code given below in Custom CSS section

    (Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS) of your dashboard.

    Code:
    #content_wrapper .post {
      width: 40%;
      float: left;
      padding-right: 60px;
    }
    Thanks,

    Thank you for the reply. While that did change the section layout for the better, it also, unfortunately, affected the way the posts themselves look:

    I want them to look the way they did before, which is like this:

    Or at least I want my category pages to look the way they do in your demo!

    Is there a way to apply the custom code you gave above, but only to the way posts are displayed in their category? I don't want to change the way the posts look on their page!

    That didn't change anything. I really don't insist on the thumbnail view; if I could just get what's in the demo, with a purchase button and some indication of which material is free and which isn't, that would be great.
