 * I am very new to WordPress, so sorry for the basic question.
 * I have a wordpress site, to which I want to add some pictures. I have uploaded
   pictures to the media library, but then the issue starts.
 * All I seem able to do is place a hyperlink into a page, not the picture? If I
   click on embed I just get “it’s not possible to embed”.
 * Obviously you can put a picture onto a wordpress site but what am I doing wrong(
   answer as simple as possible please)?
 * Thanks

 * Add a media block then insert an image from your library (or upload a new one).
