Exactly what I needed. I’d love an option that would continue text on the same line but this is everything I can ask for in a free plugin.

This plugin does the trick exactly as stated,
simple and functional.
THANK YOU for making this plugin!

Easy to install and use, we find everything we need to configure the different points, the only thing missing is rounded corners on the image and perhaps a drop shadow.
Congratulations to the developer.
