Step 1: Access the Media Library

Adding media to your WordPress site adds it to your Media Library, so you can access the same media from any Page or Post in your site.

There are several methods to access the Upload New Media or Medial Library:

• Click Media from the side menu, then select Add New
• Click + New from the top menu, then select Media
• In the Page or Post editing view, click Add Media above the text editor

Step 2: Add media to your page

1. In the text editor, insert your cursor where you’d like to insert the image.
2. Click Add Media.
3. Select the image from the Media Library.
4. Ensure all titles and alt text are included.
5. Select the size of the image from the dropdown menu in the Attachment Display Settings.
6. Click Insert into page.
