  I would like to have an image “show up” in my post without having to click on the link. Is this possible to do? Can I format text wrapping?

  Hi there,

  Are you referring to the “Insert Image” button?

  You can always add images to your post via the Insert Image button in the Visual Editor or by manually typing in the image source code in your HTML Editor:

  If you insert the image via your Visual Editor, you will be able to see how the text is wrapped around your photo as you edit your content. The best way to ensure text wrapping is to make sure that you select an alignment for your image, i.e. align left or right.

  If inserting manually, you will want to add <img align=”left/center/right”> to your HTML code. If inserting via the Visual Editor, you can select the alignment in the pop up box after uploading your image.

  I inserted an image at the beginning of my post…never got the page to set the alignment..I’ll double check to make sure I clicked the insert image. Thank-you.

  i changed my image uploader and got the screen I was looking for. You might pass that on for those who had this same problem. Thank-you.
