Yes, there is a way to add images from Assets directly into Rich Text blocks in Webflow without individually uploading each one. Webflow has a convenient feature called Asset Manager that allows you to access and insert your images directly from the Assets panel.

Here is how you can add images from Assets into Rich Text blocks in Webflow:

  1. Open the Webflow Designer and navigate to the page where you want to add the image.

  2. Drag and drop a Rich Text element onto your page or select an existing Rich Text block.

  3. Inside the Rich Text block, position your cursor where you want to insert the image.

  4. Click on the '+' icon that appears on the left side of the Rich Text editor to add a new element.

  5. From the drop-down menu, select 'Asset' to open the Asset Manager.

  6. In the Asset Manager, you will see all the images in your Webflow project's Asset panel. You can filter and search for images using the search bar or by selecting specific folders.

  7. Once you have found the image you want to insert, click on it to select it.

  8. After selecting the image, you have two options for inserting it: 'Display as background image' or 'Display as inline image'.

  • To display the image as a background image, choose the 'Display as background image' option. This will set the image as the background for the specific paragraph or heading you selected. You can adjust the image's position, size, and other properties using the Style panel.

  • To display the image as an inline image, select 'Display as inline image'. This will insert the image directly into the Rich Text block, alongside the text. You can resize and align the image using the handles that appear when you select it. You can also add a caption to the image by selecting it and clicking on the '+ Caption' button in the toolbar.

  1. After inserting the image, you can continue working with the Rich Text block as usual. You can add more images or text, format the content, and apply styles.

By using the Asset Manager in Webflow, you can easily add images from your Assets to Rich Text blocks without the need to individually upload each image. This streamlines the process and allows for efficient content creation within the Webflow platform.
