WordPress used as a journal?

  • rainday9 · Member ·

    I am trying to set up a wordpress site that can act as a kind of photo journal – – Where I upload photos from my travels, but them have the freedom to later add text, short stories, etc above and around my photos.
    The uploading photos part is working fine, but adding text is clunky. I have to either do it within the HTML editor (not cool), or I have to squeeze it into a comment box (text feels too separate from the photos – not integrated enough).
    Any suggestions on how to do this?
    Ideally the end result would be something resembling a running journal vs the traditional segmented blog site.
    Any suggestions, plug-ins, etc would be appreciated!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    To add text to a post you have already published:
    dashboard —> posts —> edit a post —> you should be able to see a choice between the visual editor and the html editor

    If only the html editor is there,
    users —> personal settings —> make sure “Disable the visual editor when writing” is not checked —> scroll down, then save changes
