Add image into text page

25 Feb 2025, 07:54

I'm trying what I thought was a simple thing: inserting an image into a text page. Attached is a screenshot of what I have tried. 
When I select “Insert Image” on the content tab, it wants to insert a HTTP path? But I want to embed the image directly in the page and have the text flow around it. How can I achieve this? Thank you!

It just says "http://" as default, as it means it's there you would insert the PATH to the image that you want to embed into the page. The path could start with "http://", but you would normally only use that if you are embedding an image from a different website. If you are inserting an image from your own website, you would normally add the "/root/relative/path.jpg".
Code
![](/root/relative/path.jpg)
Perhaps more importantly, if you upload the images you want to use into the dir, they will be selectable from the "select image" dropdown menu. See screenshot:

It probably won't by default work exactly like this. If you want for example text on right and image on left, you might need to use a columns grid (available from the next "magic wand" button to the right of "insert image").
