    I am using Metric child theme and just updated to Genesis 2.0.1 and cannot see to get my static home page body to center. All other site page body layouts are centered. Seems like a quick fix. Please advise.

    right now your #inner is 100% wide which is why your content goes to the left.

    you can make your #inner this:

    width: 960px;
    margin: 0 auto;

    or add a wrap to the inner in your css (assuming it's in your template) and add the above to the wrap

    In style.css, try changing

    .home #inner, .home-page #inner, .blog #inner {
    	width: 100%;
    	margin: 0;
    	}

    to

    .home #inner, .home-page #inner, .blog #inner {
    	/*width: 100%;
    	margin: 0;*/
        margin: 20px auto 20px;
    	}

    thank you, this worked perfectly!

    .home #inner, .home-page #inner, .blog #inner {
    /*width: 100%;
    margin: 0;*/
    margin: 20px auto 20px;
    }
