Edit an image in a post or page

For customers using the Block Editor, click here.

You can change how an image displays in a post or page. This article explains how to edit an image with the content editor.

The image editor menu lets you:

• Adjust the alignment. This allows you to wrap text around the image.
• Change the display size.
• Link to a URL or a file in your Media Library.
• Add a caption or alternative text.

Note

Our software automatically centers images on narrow screens to improve readability on mobile devices. A left or right-aligned image with wrapped text can create a jumbled look on mobile screens.

Before you start

• You'll need a user account with a Contributor role or higher.
• Add the image to your page or post. 

Steps

1. Click on the image in the editor, then click Edit from the pop-up menu:

• Change the image alignment to Left, Center, Right or None. This allows you to wrap text around the image.
