Title: className missing when saving image Last modified: June 3, 2022 --- # className missing when saving image * Resolved [belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/) * (@belbernard) * [4 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/) * Hello, * After upgrading to WordPress 6.0, I am facing a problem with image alignment. It looks as if everything is normal, notice the right-aligned image on: [https://www.leti.lt/wordpress/accueil/](https://www.leti.lt/wordpress/accueil/) * However, if I save the post this alignment is no longer correct: [https://www.leti.lt/wordpress/aaaa/](https://www.leti.lt/wordpress/aaaa/) * I found that the problem can be worked around with a “surgical fix”: In the “ wp:image” statement, a “className” declaration is missing. It should read: * * So, adding “className”:”alignright” makes it work. * What can I change (possibly in functions.php) to get the proper “className” declarations( copied from figure class)? * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fclassname-missing-when-saving-image%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Moderator [Kathryn Presner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * (@zoonini) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/#post-15740002) * Hi [@belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/), are you still having this issue or did you get it resolved? * > However, if I save the post this alignment is no longer correct: > [https://www.leti.lt/wordpress/aaaa/](https://www.leti.lt/wordpress/aaaa/) * I’m seeing the class `alignleft` on the image on your test post there, is that what you expected to see? Or has the class somehow switched from `alignright` to `alignright` unexpectedly? * Let me know if you got things sorted or if you still need troubleshooting help. Thanks! * Thread Starter [belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/) * (@belbernard) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/#post-15740094) * Sorry, I had modified the page to make it look correct (with a left alignment). For this reason you did not notice the mentioned problem, which is still there. * So, now we’re back to “alignright” although the image again appears at the center because the “className” declaration is missing… * Moderator [Kathryn Presner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * (@zoonini) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/#post-15740342) * [@belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/) Thanks for clarifying! * I tried to replicate your issue with the following setup, but so far haven’t experienced the problem: the image-block alignment class remains after saving a post. * – WordPress 6.0 – Twenty Twenty-Two theme – Gutenberg 13.4.0 (both active and inactive) * Could you please provide the following information to help me better understand how to replicate the issue: * – Is the issue present with the standalone Gutenberg plugin active, or does it go away? – If the issue is only present with the standalone Gutenberg plugin active, what version is it? – Is the issue present with **all** your plugins temporarily deactivated? You can use the Health Check plugin for this, which will not change your live site – [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)– Is the issue present with a default theme? Again, you can use the Health Check plugin for this so your live site isn’t affected. * Cheers. * Thread Starter [belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/) * (@belbernard) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/#post-15740809) * [@zoonini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * Thanks for suggesting the Health Check plugin! It made things tremendously easy. * The result is that deactivating all extensions doesn’t solve the problem. I also tried to suppress all Custom CSS, yet with no result. * Finally, the culprit is the TIMES theme which I am using in its latest version( 1.5.2). The bad news are: * 1) It is no longer supported by CLYCO 2) The support team no longer replies emails, after being very cooperative over years 3) It seems a nightmare to switch my sites (except this one) to another theme because of lots of customizations * Therefore my first idea is to design a few code lines which could be implemented in “functions.php” (or any suitable file) so that the theme will survive a few more years. * My second idea is to find a theme that would reproduce great features of TIMES( such as on my site [https://lebonheurestpossible.org/](https://lebonheurestpossible.org/))… * Moderator [Kathryn Presner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * (@zoonini) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/#post-15741050) * Heya [@belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/), I totally understand the potential hassle in switching themes, especially if you’ve done a lot of customizations. * I’m not sure what you could add to functions (or another file) to add back the block classes that your theme is stripping out, but I do wonder if you might want to try manually adding the `alignright` or `alignleft` class name to your image blocks and see if they stick after saving. * You can add classes manually in the Advanced area of the block settings, as you see here: * [⌊Edit Page Self hosted Test WordPress⌉⌊Edit Page Self hosted Test WordPress⌉[ * If it works, perhaps this could be a workaround and give you more time to explore other themes? * Thread Starter [belbernard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belbernard/) * (@belbernard) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/classname-missing-when-saving-image/#post-15741174) * [@zoonini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * Yes it works! I hadn’t figured out this solution. Instead, I was editing the page in code mode to declare the additional class. This will certainly be a viable workaround until the theme can be upgraded.
