    Content Editor - Image Upload Assist Usage

    About using the "Image Assist", (+ img) Logo below this body/text field frame. This tool assists you with uploading an image, and then place the image "tag" in your (this) editor at cursor position.

    • I assume for now to turn of the WYSIWYG mode (disable rich-text button below this frame).
    • Click the image assist button (+img) below
    • Now, choose a category to browse or to add your new image click upload -- if the image is already in the library, select it
    • Upload: Fill out the form, select the destination gallery -- images are like other content and (can) have title and body text associated with them. I would suggest (have to set it to default, not yet done), to un-check under "Publishing options" "Promoted on front page"
    • Once all is filled out, check via preview and press save
    • Select placing option (right/left,...) -- put the cursor (in the text body (other window) where you want it)
    • make sure "Insert mode" is set to "HTML Code" and press insert. -- The code snipped should show up in your text, do not modify unless you know what you are doing. (Note: You can move the whole block or delete it and start over)

    Notes:
    This method of uploading photos is so far only considered to be used by "us" content editors/moderator. Not for teh regular members. They shall use image linking from external. Works with the WYSIWYG editor graphics insert icon.

    Also this method is NOT for out photo album, what uses a different method. I do have set up a role "SBRA photographer/editor" for that.
