wrapping text around a picture in a post

  • Folks,
    OK…So I use the WP editor, write a post and use it to upload a pic and send it to the editor. It seems to basically make a hole in my post to insert the pic. I can add text only on
    the sentence running up to the pic and then after the pic.
    Example:

    this would be the sentence(…the pic…)then the rest of the sentence.

    I would like to have text wrap the text( up and down both sides if the pic was centered( one side if the pic is alligned left or right. In my style.css I cant find any reference to images at all.
    I know this can be done, just don’t know how.I’ve looked at all the support stuff and I’ll admit I’m feeling pretty stupid right now. Is there something in the WP editor I”m not seeing? Is there code I can insert into my style.css that will let me do this.
    Thanks for any advice

  • Like this (scroll down a bit)? https://www.revereknowledge.net/

    In html mode add the following code before the paragraph where you want the image to float.

    <div style="float:left;">
    Image code here
    </div>

    If you want it to float on the right just change float:left to float:right. Unfortunately it is either right or left, there is no center option built into css.

    It would help if you provided a link to your blog.

    You note the use of the Black Letterhead theme and it more than likely has the css coded for text wrap but without a link it’s hard to determine the form it takes.

    Check your stylesheet for a section on images that may get you started.

    ajd777,
    That’s exactly what I want to do. Where you say (image code here) is that the url of the image in the slot of the little browse thingy?

    You will add the whole <img src="https://blahblah.com/image.jpg"/> or [img]https://blahblah.com/image.jpg[/img] where it says that.
