How do you add photos to a blog post?
-
With the new change in “add new post” screen, I can’t see where I can add new media and imbed multiple photos within the blog post. Also, I can’t find a list of tags I’ve used in the past to copy from (so I can use the same terminology and limit the overall tags). Any suggestions as to how to fix these problems?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Go to your WordPress dashboard (WP-admin). Then click on Posts in the WordPress admin menus and click on your existing blog post. This will take you to the editor.
Just underneath the title, there are a few buttons:

Click on the Add Media button. Then you can upload a new photo and insert into your post or click on Media Library and select an existing image and insert into your post:

Be sure to save changes to your blog post after inserting the picture.

@lorenzocaum is spot-on regarding how to get images into posts now–it really only works if you are starting new posts through your dashboard.
I know that was different a couple of days ago, and there are several conversations going on about that if you’d like more info:
