Now that you have uploaded some images to the Media Gallery, the next step is to learn how to insert the images in to a post.
This is where you return to the normal threads.
If you are writing up a recipe, create it as usual, but do not use the Attach files button or the link to picture (the landscape painting icon).
Instead, go to the toolbar and locate the camera icon. On a wide screen, it will be immediately visible, but on a smaller (phone) screen, you will need to click on the 2nd of the 3 vertical dots, and then on the camera icon.
or
This will open a window showing all your media. It is sorted by the most recently added media first, which may not always be convenient. I will show you how to address that in another help file.
For the moment, click on the image(s) you want to add. Note that if you click more than one, they will be inserted in the order you click. The number next to "Your Media" indicates how many items are selected. You are allowed up to 20. Then click Continue.
Don't worry that you see code instead of images inserted into your post.
This is normal. To view the images, click the Preview button.
Click the Preview button again to return to the edit screen, type what you want to say, click Post reply as usual, and your images will be inserted into the post exactly where that piece of code was.
