To use the images from SiteContent editor, you can only do this for new posts, not for posts you already published to WordPress.

That doesn't take away that you can make use of the same free images, the images are coming from Pixabay, Pexels and a couple of other sources.

On those websites you can find the same images and download them for own usage.

It would be a good idea however to resize them further and compress them using something like TinyPNG before uploading and adding to your post within WordPress.

Thanks again

A lot of members have this problem and I always advise that they save whatever images they want to their desktop and upload to wordpress.

Perhaps another member will have a better answer.

Hi Robert,
I will do that in future from now on, I just thought I would have been able to edit the post in site content and added the picture from there.
Thanks again

I believe this only applies to new posts.
Much better doing it my way anyway.
I have published a blog on Images and give a lot of links to sites where you can download free images. Robert-A
