Inserting an image

  1. Locate the page to be edited.
  2. Edit the page by clicking the edit button in the top left or right-clicking on the page and selecting 'Edit'.
  3. In your content area, place your cursor where you would like to insert an image.
  4. Click the 'Insert/edit image' icon  in your toolbar.
  5. Fill out the popup with your image's information.
    • Image source - where is your image located
      • Internal - Check this option if the link is a page on your site that you have access to (it must be something you have rights to edit).
      • External - Check this option if you are linking to an image not within your site. Note: Due to copyright laws, we want to make sure that we have the rights to use all images that we place on our site. For that reason, uploading our own images to your site (and creating an internal source) is the preferred method
    • Image
      • Click on the file chooser button to locate and select the image you are inserting on your page. (Using the File Chooser)

    • Decorative - you can check this box if your image is purely used for decoration but that is not the preferred option.
    • Image Description - frequently called "alt text" this is an important field to help our web users. This field should provide a text description of the content in the image. If your image has text on it, that text should be written in this field.
    • Dimensions - this field does not need content, the dimensions will default to the size of the photo. Photos should be resized before it is uploaded to Cascade.
    • Class - class options have been created for image alignment, it is encouraged to select one of these options unless your photo spans the whole width of your page.
      • None - The standard placement for an image is inline with the text and for most images that doesn't work well (example below). Do keep this option if your image will span the entire width of your section.


      • img_right - This option will align the images to the right and the text will flow around it on the left side.


      • img_left - This option will align the images to the left and the text will flow around it on the right side.
  6. When you are finished, click 'ok'.
