Step 6: Click on the “Media Library” tab at the top of the window (above) and the window will change to something similar to what you see below. Click anywhere in the row with the image you wish to insert – or on the “Show” link at right, or on the thumbnail at the left side.

• choose if you want the image linked to the image file in your uploads, or to the post page, or you can enter any URL you wish.
