Dear Sirs. I’m stuck!
I’ve looked at your help page, and you say I say to use the button directly above/below the ‘Add Media’ button(looks s bit like a mountain)…. but there isn’t one of these on my screen.
I have’d done my travel blog for 4 years, and I can’t for the life of me, work out/remember, how I inserted photos before.
Please help!
Many thanks,
Joanne

If you’re in the wp-admin dashboard “Add Media” is the button you click on. Or when you’re working on a post in the block editor or the classic editor do you see the “+ in a circle” icon.

Hi, thanks for answering.
Yes, it’s the ‘add media’ button I want….but it’s not there!
The ‘plus in a circle’ button is for adding a new post, but when that page comes up, that sign is no longer there obviously….it’s a different page.
Still stuck sadly.

What is the address of your site? Which editor are you working with? Are you an Admin of the site as contributors have limited privileges,

Hi. The address is…ioanandjoblogs.wordpress.com. Sadly I have no idea what ‘editor’ I am working with though. It seems to me that the problem is not having the ‘add media’ button? Thanks for trying to help.

Hi there!
It seems that you’re still using the classic editor, I recorded a short video to show you how you can add an image: https://d.pr/i/S53Cfo.
If you still can’t the see the button on your site, could you please make a screenshot of what you see? You can use an online tool for that (such as https://snipboard.io/), or follow the instructions described here:
