  The image editor looks all different. It appears that I can no longer add a border to my images. What happened?

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

  Hi, fellow WordPressers,

  It would be great if someone could help me with adding borders to my image. I used to click on “advanced settings” and then put a 5 in the border field. It looked great with the thick black border around my images. Alas, it looks like I can no longer access this ability. Did this change within the last couple of weeks? I use the Able theme. My blog is deliciousdaydreams.com and my most recent post is the one that I noticed the change with.

  Thank you for your help,
  Jenna

  There were some recent changes to the Visual Editor and Image Editor that removed the ability to add a border. You can read more about those changes here:

  However, you can still add a border through HTML in the Text Editor. Instructions on using the Text Editor can be found here:

  Types of WordPress Editors

  To add a border, you can add the following snippet of text:

  border="_px"

  Here is how the entire image HTML code would look with the border attribute:

  <img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-15039" src="FILE URL" alt="Featured Image -- 15038" width="584" height="389" border="3px" />

  Does that make sense?

  Let me know if you have any additional questions about the new image editing features!
