Need Help Adding Image to Text Box

I've read several posts on this as well as the tutorial page here. But I cannot get an image to drop within a text box. No matter what I do, it creates a separate image option to the top, bottom or sides of the existing text box--wherever the blue line is when I drop it. What's the trick to getting it within the text box?

Thank you!

Hey @MooseTrax16! Sorry to hear you're having trouble. When you drag an image over a text element, you're looking for a blue square to show on the text element so you know that it'll combine the two.

Adam, I don't get that "shadow" image box shown in your image (and in the tutorial I followed). I just get a single Image box and a blue line (on the left side in this picture, but it can be top, bottom or right side). It adds the image box where the blue line is--not within the text box. Site is issdar.org, if that helps.

Is that a Title element, @MooseTrax16? From your screenshot I'm guessing it's a paragraph title element instead of text.

Ah, yes it is. Thank you for catching that. I used that because I wanted to use the title font. Am I correct that there is no way to change the font for a single text box?

Not individually or independently of all other text elements on your site. You might be able to do something with custom coding in an Embed Code element, though, assuming you know some HTML and CSS.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!

This was driving me nuts because I've been using Weebly editor for years being able to add images to text then it stopped working... because duh to me, I was suddenly using title not paragraph elements. Thanks again, Adam!

I noticed that I was able to do it when I had the "shadow" blue box but so far I am only able to do it for one image per text box, then the shadow goes away.

Currently you can only add one image element to one text element, so you won't see the option again once you've added an image.
