Medium Glitches | Editing on Medium
Unable to Link Image Source When Editing Using the Medium Phone App. Can You?
Every time I write on the App, I notice I can add the image using the Medium-Unsplash inbuilt connection, but it excludes the source link.
To solve this problem, I tried several in-App solutions, as follows. Spoiler alert: none worked (within the App).
Solution 1
I manually copied the link directly from Unsplash and pasted it under the words in the caption.
I couldn’t. There’s no “link” option for words typed in the caption section. See my screenshot in the image below with the word highlighted, but there is no option to link among the functions that appear.
Solution 2:
My second option was to edit the caption within the body of the piece first and then paste the phrase, with the link included, in the caption tab.
PS: It’s possible to add a link underneath a word/phrase when editing the body of the piece within the App.
