Support » Fixing WordPress » Aligning text and images

  • Hello

    On my site I am using images with text wrap. I have entered the text that I want to align with the image, it only comes about 1/4 of the way down the image.

    I want the next paragraph after the image. I have been told not to use &npbs to ‘move’ my text down. Is that correct? If so, how do I start my next paragraph below the image?

    This is a custom link to the post I am writing, it is live for two days:

    many thanks

  • Best answer, learn a bit of html and css.

    Happy to continue learning HTML – a bit scared of css.

    But have an actual business to run and not going to do a course. Where can I find the code I should use?

    The code you use will depend on all the elements surrounding the image and text – css and html elements react differently in different configurations.

    You could use a bottom-margin on your image.
    You could use a top-margin on the text
    You could insert a blank line with   above text

    This is probably a question for a html/css community as it’s not controlled by WordPress.

    Thank you Shannon, I can work it out with this suggestion.

    Why be scared of CSS, It is actually quite easy.
    You assign a class name to a bunch of elements that will share the same style.
    You assign an ID to identify elements that are only used once on a page.

    Then you define how the elements look using CSS rules.

    “But have an actual business to run and not going to do a course”
    Then hire a professional.

    No matter how many videos on YouTube teach brain surgery, I will leave it to the pros!
