    Hello,

    I’ve tried my best to research this topic, and despite many forums seeming to exist with similar issues, I’m still having problems.

    I’m trying to wrap a slew of text (multiple lines with spacing between each line) around an image, but each time I try to format it the text breaks off after the first line and drops down below the image. I would like for the entire typed text to rest to the left side of the image.

    How I’ve been going about the issue is: Type text >> Click to start of text >> Insert image from media library >> Edit image >> Select “Alignment: Right” >> Click update

    The edit page for the post shows the text as I want it, with all the text on the left of the image. But as soon as I preview or update, it resorts back to the first line next to the image, and the rest of the text below.

    Here’s the link to the page that I’m working on.

    Please, any advice would be incredibly welcomed.

  • Wrap all this text in one element, ie, <p>.

    I didn’t want it to come to this, but I have to play the “newb” card. When I click the text view, I get this:

    <img class="alignright  wp-image-355" alt="0053_5x7 (1)" src="http://unapologeticentertainment.com/wp-content/uploads/0053_5x7-1.jpg" width="364" height="546" />We’ve become too sensitive. The other day I overheard some people discussing  poverty. Simple enough, right? The conversation went like this:
    
    Person #1 – “…and that’s why people of a ‘lower socio-economic status’ need to-”
    
    Person #2 – “Um, I actually find the term ‘lower socio-economic status’ to be offensive, because it implies that those people are of a <em>lower</em> quality than others. I would prefer if we referred to them as ‘working class.’”
    
    Person #3 – “Actually, I find the term ‘working class’ to be offensive as well, because it implies that anybody that doesn’t fall into that category isn’t working.”
    
    And that was it. The conversation had shifted from one filled with good intentions, trying to identify the causing factors that hinder those financially less fortunate than others, to a “who can be more politically correct” competition. Those people each had something to say, and they each sacrificed saying it for the sake of coming off as socially-sensitive.

    You’re saying to insert “<” right at the start, and a “>” right at the end?

    No…are you pasting this text from a Rich Text Editor? If so, that may the issue.

    Do this in a test post. Write your text. Save draft. Click your mouse at upper left of text and then click insert media and insert your media item, save draft again and preview.

    I had originally typed the text in the wordpress “new page” editor, so there was no copy and paste involved.

    I just did the test post though, with the “save drafts” where you suggested, but alas it’s the same result. Could the issue have anything to do with using a jpeg? I can convert to png…

    Also, for what it’s worth, if I delete the space between the lines, so one sits right under the other, the formatting is fine. Example:

    “blah blah blah
    blah blah blah”
    ^^works fine

    “blah blah blah

    blah blah blah”
    ^^doesn’t work, but it how I want it to look.

    Wait – I may have missed a point – are you trying to right justify only the image?

    Oh, and your theme or a plugin is adding the first letter of post in large font?

    How does this work with default theme and no plugins?

    My goal is to have two elements on the page. An image, and text. I would further like all the text formatted to the right of the image. Here’s an example of how I want it to look.

    The problem is that I can only get the first bit of my text to be to the side of the image. after that, the rest of the text jumps to the below the image, which is how my page looks now. Link to my page.

    So all that text below my picture, I want to the side of the picture just like the first line of text is.

    .entry-content > p:first-child:first-letter {
    	float: left;
    	font-size: 365%;
    	line-height: 0.7;
    	padding-right: 8px;
    	padding-left: 3px;
    	font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif;
    	padding-top: 7px;
    }

    Above seems to be at issue…

    I am not using a plugin for this effect, but I am using a theme. I certainly hope it’s not the theme that’s causing this restrictions… I will try a default theme though.

    I also am finding it hard to believe that this content was not pasted:

    <div class="entry-inner">
        	<div class="entry-content">
        		<p><img class="alignright  wp-image-355" alt="0053_5x7 (1)" src="http://unapologeticentertainment.com/wp-content/uploads/0053_5x7-1.jpg" width="364" height="546" />We’ve become too sensitive.

        		    		    	</div><!-- .entry-content -->
        </div><!-- .entry-inner -->

    That said, try with default unedited theme and no plugins activated to isolate this issue.

    I’ll do my best. Thanks for the help though. I really appreciate it.

    These issues can be a struggle at first…be patient, review this forum and the codex for issues known…if you choose to find them on Google, make sure to use the date filter there to find both topical and timely information.
