  Hi, quick question regarding typing text around an image. I’d like to do something likethis where there’s a book cover and then the text going beside & below the image. Right now, when I put the blurb next to the image, it goes down in a straight line & that’s not what I want. I’ve just been putting the blurb below the image, but again, that’s not what I want. How can I put the words next to and below the image for however long it needs to and put a colour behind it? Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, If you want to wrap the text to the right around the image, align the image to the left and your text will flow on the right side and below (if the text is long enough). Here’s more on that https://wordpress.com/support/images/image-alignment/

  If you are looking to add a colored background behind the text, then you’ll want to select all your Paragraph blocks and Group them. Then you can add a background color behind all the text. More on grouping blocks here https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/group-block/

  I hope that helps, but post back here if you have other questions about this.
