If you’re using the WYSIWYG editor in 2.x, there’s a tool bar button at the top of it with a little picture icon.
Click it.
Paste in that url.
Click ok.
The non-wywsiwyg editor has a similar button at the top labeled “img”. Works the same way though.
Does that help?
Thanks HandySolo, I’ve seen that tool, but I was looking for a way to avoid the tool and add an image even faster – without having to leave the text box. So, if i’m writing a post I can quickly keep typing and add the image, without having to click anything. Make sense?
Ok, I think I follow – more typing, less clicking is what you’re after.
Well, I recall in WP 1.5 there were a couple plugins that would “reformat” the post. Honestly I can’t recall their names, but I suspect they handled that sort of markup (Texturizer? Markdown? something like those).
That being the case… well, I guess I can’t help beyond suggesting the “Post Plugins” section over at http://wp-plugins.net/ I seem some that may be worth checking out.
hmmm…
i dont think i can just enter html into where i write the post, unless i click “edit html”?
in other words…could i just enter something like this into the post body?:
<img src=http://www.google.com/images/logo_sm.gif>
Not sure if the WYSIWYG editor would be happy (but I’d try), but the other editor wouldn’t mind that one bit.
