I add image with Gutenberg – the image always insert att te top!

  • Hi!

    Got the WP 5.01 update and new Gutenberg Editor.
    All things are updated.

    1. I put the marker in the post text
    2. I Add media from the Editor
    3. The image media insert in the post
    4. …and here is the problem – it always put the image at the top –
    not where I want it in the text.
    (If I add a block it can only be used at the top or the bottom)

    Any tips?

    Best!

  • Click the image then drag to reduce the size then click the wrap icon you desire.

    Thanks for the tip! Probably me that is stupid here. Just do not get it…?

    I have text in an old post from the default editor before Gutenberg.
    In the middle of the text I just want to insert an image.

    When I do it is placed at the top –
    and when I put the image in a block – I can have it at the bottom or the top –
    nowhere else.
    I can not drag it.

    One more little tip and I might get it.. (wrap icon – you mean block or…?)

    Do they have html code setting for the page like it used to be or is that done away with…?

    Regards!

    Problem solved! Kind of stupid!
    Did focus so much on Gutenberg that I forgot what I had.

    I already had built the pages with WPBakery blocks + plugin shortcodes and blocks.
    I already had a Gutenberg so to speak.

    Here′s some useful info that I found troubleshooting – for others –
    that might have problem starting up like I had.

    May be, but it is a well known issue, which will be fixed in 5.0.2 (at least I’ll hope so)

    Thanks Angelica – good to hear!
    I have one site with only the Classic Editor too – that have this error.
    I check it again after the update.
    Gutenberg is a nice update – I′d rather use that than the old editor.

    Gutenberg drag and resize images is not intuitive. Even after doing it a bit, it is not forthright.

    Then, try doing a spell check of the image caption.

    Then, try doing a grammar check of the post text.

    There are some wonderful things about Gutenberg, but some things are just a nuisance.
