This should right-align them.

```plaintext
table.topic-list td.category { text-align: right; }

```

Yeah, that happens when you right align things. Hence why they were originally left aligned.

Your better option will probably be trying to increase the width of the title column and reduce the category width

You will want to target

```plaintext
/* topic column */
table.topic-list th.default, table.topic-list td.main-link { width: whatever; min-width: whatever; }

/* category column */
table.topic-list th.category, table.topic-list td.category { width: whatever; min-width: whatever; }

```
