Cannot edit images on wordpress page

  • Unknown's avatar

    I can choose an image from my media library and load it onto a page, but I cannot edit it in any way after that. When I click on the image, I don’t get the editing box. Instead, when I release the click, I am moved to a different part of the page. Can you tell me how to fix this, please?

    Hi soundenglish7323,

    What sort of changes are you having trouble making? Are you trying to use these image editing options?

    Just let me know and we can go from there.

    Gemma, thanks for the response. I am up to date in WordPress. I am using the Sydney Pro theme. For the past couple of weeks, I can upload and image and insert it into a page. I can do my editing of the image while it is in the media library, but, once it is on the page, I have no options for size or position as I should. When I click the image on the page, the outline appears, but the editing menu does not. When I release the click, the page moves to another location. This happens consistently without regard to the image or the page.

  • Hi there,

    Can you please let me know your site’s address so I can point you in the right direction of getting support?

    Looks like you’re using the self-hosted version on WordPress and you probably need to ask over at the WordPress.org forums:
