Hi so I am wracking my brain trying to figure out if this can be done and if so - how.
I would like text on my profile to be at the center of the screen, but to follow a straight line either on the left side of the text or, preferably, to be justified. I've tried to create columns but having an empty column at the start only pushes the second "center" column all the way to the left anyway. Inline was my best bet but it didn't center everything correctly so it bothered me to see it slightly pushed left/right instead of being smack in the center.
Is it possible to do this, somehow? Thankful for any help! 🥹

There's two ways to do this! You were on the right track with columns, its just a bit of fiddling with bbcode if you go that route.
BBCode columns

With this, you'll use transparent text in the framing columns, which allow you to fine tune the width to whichever size you like!
Widget columns
make empty text boxes in widget columns, removing the titles as well, to frame.
Hope one of these methods helps get the results you're after!

Aah you're a lifesaver! Thank you so much 🥰 This really should be added to the BBC code guide, it's great!
