Never mind. I went to make a video of the issue and now it’s working!

I did change some setting in Enfold and maybe they made a difference. I have no idea.

Thanks for your time and sorry for this. If I see the problem again I will be back.

I could not insert an image at all using the Default Editor for several hours but now I can.

I did start and stop Chrome, maybe that had something to do with it.

Thanks again

Yes I know that but as I said in the original entry that is a poor substitute, really makes Blog posts pretty primitive.

So I guess this is just the way the theme is? Cripples the regular editor and provides shortcodes only with limited functionality?

Especially bad for Blog posts. Shortcodes are not going to be used by clients either who need some kind of visual reference.

Surely Kriesi must have plans to fix this? The other replies led me to believe that it was a bug in my installation.

This is a beautiful piece of work by Kriesi but not quite ready for prime time. We were going to use this theme as a standard in our design group along with Sudiopress/Genesis but this will be a nightmare trying to show clients how to right embed an image in their latest Blog post.

Thank you Ismael, theme is very nice. That makes more sense, it seemed very unusual that the Add Media would be completely disabled. I am using latest version of WP and Enfold.

When I say the button is disabled I mean it is there and appears to function correctly just that no image is ever actually inserted.

I have been using the column classes to achieve what I need for now and in a way it’s actually a better way to go from a design perspective than using the “align” feature. But still may need that eventually.

I will leave URL in another post.
