How can I add an image from my media Library to a blog post in the Webflow editor without having to upload it again? It's a straightforward process in WordPress, but seems more complicated in Webflow. Am I overlooking something?

No, you're not overlooking anything. The process of adding an image from the media library to a blog post in the Webflow Editor is a bit different compared to WordPress. However, it's still a straightforward process once you know how to do it.

To add an image from your media library to a blog post in Webflow, you'll need to follow these steps:

1. Open the Webflow Editor and navigate to the specific blog post where you want to add the image.
2. Place your cursor at the position where you want the image to appear within the blog post.
3. Click on the "Insert Image" button, located on the top toolbar of the editor. It looks like a mountain landscape icon.
4. A dialog box will appear, giving you different options for adding an image. By default, it will show the "Upload" tab, which allows you to upload an image from your computer. However, to select an image from your media library, you'll need to click on the "Browse" tab.
5. Once you're on the "Browse" tab, you'll see all the images in your media library. You can either scroll through the list or use the search bar to find the image you want to add.
6. Click on the desired image to select it, and then click on the "Insert" button at the bottom-right corner of the dialog box.
7. The image will now be added to your blog post at the cursor's position. You can resize it, add captions, or adjust the alignment by selecting the image and using the formatting options in the toolbar.

It's important to note that the media library in Webflow is shared across your entire project, so any image you upload once can be used in multiple places without re-uploading. This allows for better organization and reusability of your media assets.

While the process might seem slightly more complicated in Webflow compared to WordPress, it is ultimately more flexible and allows for more control over the appearance and behavior of your images within your blog posts.
