Wrapping Text Around Image

[Mainstreetala]

I have an email newsletter built with images in the top left or right corner of the articles. In preview mode, it looks great but when I send a test, none of the text is wrapped and instead the text is shown under all the images. What am I doing wrong?

Hi @Mainstreetala. I looked at your most recent email and saw the image was displayed with the image and text being in two separate blocks next to each other. To create the wrap effect, you'll need to drag the image into the adjoining text block until you see a light pink box appear in the top left or right corner. When it is placed there, the text will wrap appropriately.

I had to change it to different blocks because it would not work otherwise. I spent an hour on a call with Constant Contact and that ended up being their recommendation.

Isn't it true also, that when previewed in mobile mode, the wrapped image appears above the text block?

Hi @kcolombini. That is correct. Text wrapping displays correctly on desktops. Mobile view will automatically stack images above or below text, regardless of placement.

This is not a solution. 😕 Text wrapping isn't working for me either on desktop. It looks fine in the email builder and in previews, until I send test emails, and then none of the text is wrapped. I tried making new text blocks, I made sure my image is dragged into where the little pink box shows in the upper left/right corners. Sounds like a lot of people are having issues with this and it is a Constant Contact issue, not user error. It needs to be fixed.

Same for my emails as well. I have the image and text in one box and the text wraps fine in CC but when I send a preview test, the image is on  top of the text block. I understand it does this on Mobile but it shouldn't be that way on desktop view.

I have the same issue - I switched from PC to Mac and this started happening. No issues on my PC, but issues in every Constant Contact email on my Mac. Is there a setting I should be adjusting for CC emails?

I'd advise reaching out to the support of whichever email program you're using on your Mac, or reaching out to Apple's support to see if there's a specific setting you need to adjust.

This is still an issue. And even worse with the new email editor. Apparently you can't have text wrapping around an image at all anymore??

Hello @JaclynJ ,

Text wrapping is still available as a function. You drag the image (or image block) into a text block and drop it where the pink square shows up.
