Adding Images

The way images are added to documents is almost the same in both the free and Pro versions of clearFusionCMS, the main difference is visual as each version has its own WYSIWYG editor.

We'll start by selecting a document to add an image to, so from the Dashboard select Documents then My Home Page, we created this during the Getting Started part of this user guide.

Next we click the location in the document to add the image, followed by the insert image icon. The insert image icon will look like one of the following examples highlighted in red.
