Where is image padding?

    Urgh…. I hope I am just missing something.

    I used the image padding heavily (the height / width margins boxes under Advanced). I can’t find those options. Did they move?

    I have some posts with 15 pictures on them and they all use the padding.

    Coding this in HTML adds significant time to blogging now. I hope its still in the GUI somewhere.

    Please help!

    3.9 updated the tinyMCE (Visual) editor to tinyMCE version 4.0. If you read up on tinyMCE version 4 you’ll notice that image margins are not a part of it.

    So what to do? Check out this post:http://alisothegeek.com/2011/05/tinymce-styles-dropdown-wordpress-visual-editor/ and see the plugin Alison created (and is included at the end of her post). Then taking the things you’ve learned there, add your own custom styles with her plugin and you can get your image “padding” styles back.

    I completely understand that it’s annoying that you have to change your workflow now because what used to work doesn’t. But now the visual editor is now up-to-date (security and bug fixes) and I just provided you a way that you can recreate the features/functionality you want.

    Thanks bemdesign. What is the Image CSS Class under Advanced Options. Is that something that could help? And if so, do you have any article on how I could use it?

    Sorry…I’m not sure what you’re referring to. Could you clarify?

    Sure thing. After you have inserted an image into a post, hover over it and go it the properties. There is an Advanced selection you can expand. Under this there is a field that says Image CSS Class. I would assume I could call a class here and that class could contain margins and padding options.

    That would actually be a perfect way to style your images. Create a class in your theme’s stylesheet with the specified margins and/or borders you want and then when adding in your images, give them that class.

    I’d check out this plugin, Advanced Image Styles.
    It brings back the margin and border functionality
