An effective way to convey your message to your readers is to show some relevant images on your Posts or Pages. On this lesson, I will give you a quick tutorial on how to insert images into your posts or pages.

Steps on inserting an Image to a Posts or Pages

1. Place the cursor where you want your image to appear on the working area.

2. Click the Add Media button.

3. On the Insert Media, click Upload Files tab, then click Select Files to choose for the image that you want to upload from your computer.

If your media is already uploaded, choose the Media Library tab and select the image that you want to insert.

4. On the Attachment Details panel fill the text box for the information about your image like the title, caption, alternate text, and description.

5. On the Attachment Display Settings, you can align your image to the Left, Right, Center or None. You can link your image as well to any URL. And you can also change its size thumbnail, medium, large or full size.

6. After setting your image, just click the Insert into Post button to insert the image where the cursor on your post is. You can edit the display settings and details of your image anytime thereafter.

So, that's how you insert images on your posts or pages.

I created a second page. When I went to the different pages, and used the parent button - the pages are switched around. Is it supposed to be like that?

No, I have not created a sub-page yet as I do not have enough details to do that. I need specifics and if it's too simple - it doesn't have enough information. I've read the directions a bunch of times and I still don't get it.

Thanks Carl for letting me know this, I stand corrected.

When importing the back-up files (.xml) start importing the "All Content" file. Tutorial updated now.

The "Media" file back-up is for emergency purposes only if in case the "All Media" file didn't show the media / pictures on your posts or pages. So, to make sure of that, you can import the "Media" file after importing the "All Content" file.

Thanks for having this tutorial, I'm glad it's becoming useful to my fellow members here.
