I have emailed you, but can’t use the form as it seems to be only for people with paid versions of Duplicator.

Lack of time on the part of the owner? The source is at GitHub, you could fork it!

There is a gallery that supports EXIF but I was struggling to set up.

It’s a great plugin for posts with single photos. It’s not great for posts with several photos or galleries, it puts the EXIF for the first photo under the gallery. But I’ve not found anything better so far.

Yes, it still works, but see the above. It is no longer being supported.

“This plugin has been closed as of July 27, 2023 and is not available for download. Reason: Security Issue.”

Thanks

Thanks for that. What is bizarre is I created a new WordPress installation on a local PC, and amended the sample page.

I put the first paragraph in a group, and added an image into the group above it, with right justification. And it works correctly!!!

I’ve ended up wondering if there was some issue with the page from the older website I was trying to amend, and had I started from scratch it would have been OK.

BTW how in the TT2023 theme would I add custom CSS?

My photo website is 6.4.2 and the plugin works well. Unfortunately although I’ve had a long career in IT including a lot of programming I’m not the right person to take this on.

Thanks. I did get there in the end, and I have a suspicion that there was a problem in the site I was trying to alter, which was an existing site, which was upsetting the themes.

Not impressed that I can’t do it in the new standard themes as thee first response to any layout problem is to change to a standard theme!

And floating text round an image is a pretty basic thing to want to do.

After further experiments I have found this is an issue in 2023, 2024 and Blocksy – but not in Spectra One. So that is what I’ll use.

Ho hum that’s not the complete solution – it looked like it was on a narrow screen.

On a bigger screen the image was right aligned, but it was aligned with the right-hand margin of the header, not the page contents. By default the header is ‘Wide Width’ (1200px), the contents ‘None’ e.g. a maximum of 650px.

I tried wrapping the page contents in a stack of the correct width and the image in the stack no longer has an align option in it’s toolbar.

So what is?

OK the answer is blindingly simple. Add the image, add the text paragraphs, then select the Alignment dropdown. As well as the usual options of None, Wide Width & Full Width, for an image it includes Left, Centre & Right alignments.

There are some spacing issues in the page but this is the right starting place.

I created a test page and looked at the ‘inline image’ option and found it’s not cutting the mustard in many ways.

I’ve also tried the media & text block which is nearly there, except it displays as if the image was in a separate column to the text – with a long enough paragraph of text it doesn’t start wrapping below the image. The same is true with several shorter paragraphs.

I wonder if any of the various block add-ons has the right one for me?

Ah so simply but so not obvious, at least to me! But I had a row inside the group and that was where I had to change the spacing.
