How to associate some uploaded files (Media) with blog posts? (3 posts)

    The Media Upload part of WordPress is now quite nice, with multiple uploads. My issue, however, is that I upload 6-7 pictures for each blog posting. I want to associate the blog post with media URLs. How can I do this?

    Let me explain: I run an art gallery blog

    We have exhibitions. Each exhibition has an artist associated with it. Each artist contributes 5-6 images of their creations.

    Each of these creations' pictures are uploaded into the "Media" section of our WP blog.

    Each exhibition is a blog posting.

    Also, each artist has a blog posting. But this blog posting may have all the pictures uploaded for several exhibitions by this artist.

    So my question: when I upload these 5-6 pictures (Media), how should I easily associate them with my blog posting, without manually remembering each picture's URL (after uploading) and then pasting it in the blog posting?

    Thx for any ideas!

    Upload the images via Edit Post/Add Image - not via the Media Library.

    Upload the images via Edit Post/Add Image - not via the Media Library.

    Or if you have already uploaded them you can add them to the desired Post and then simply delete the text that is automatically added to the Post - that will also attach them to the Post. Note though that you can only attach each piece of media to one post, which can be a little annoying.
