  Hello, I have noticed for our last two blog posts that my main image in the posts will not allow for left wrapping around text even though it is checked off and selected under the image description. Is anyone else experiencing this or is it just me. It just wont allow the text to wrap and forces the image at the top of the article. I have tried everything including logging out and refreshing the page and still nothing. I am using firefox. Could this be the issue? Please help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I tried testing on my own blog, and I couldn’t reproduce the problem. But I do see what you mean about the first image not wrapping in your latest post:

  May I ask how you create posts? Do you use the built in editor on WordPress.com or do you use some other app to post? When you create content, do you copy and paste it from a different program into the WordPress.com editor or do you type the content into the editor directly?

  Can you try using the “Paste from Word” button when you paste content? It’s in row 2 of the visual editor buttons. See #6 here:

  I tried the paste from word button and it did not work at all. In fact the the text is running across the page.

  I found that you fixed it by removing the images before pasting from Word, which you mentioned here: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/text-running-across-post-when-i-cut-and-paste-into-wordpress?replies=4#post-1164921

  In the future, you can probably also avoid the problem by typing the content directly into the WordPress.com editor instead of pasting it from another source.
