@guylancaster999 thank you for writing in about Gutenberg! First, I want to make a quick note that bugs happening only on WordPress.com should be reported to WordPress.com support and you can do that by going to https://wordpress.com/help/contact while you are logged in.

I can help test the issues you've reported with the core plugin here.

If you were using the classic block, there was a problem reported where inserted media was getting added to the top of the post unexpectedly reported in #10509 and fixed in #12415. That fix won't show up on WordPress.com immediately and will likely get added to WordPress.com within a few weeks.

Note: the classic block is available in the block editor and is different from switching back to the classic editor and it's good to be aware of that difference in the case of this bug report.

I had lots of <tr><td><img........><?td> <td>Text....</td> </tr> I add added an img from the media library and it didn’t drop it in the right place.

Classic editor worked and then it ended up with a writer helper at the bottom but no way to save.

I tried testing by enabling Gutenberg on a WordPress.com site and then opening an existing draft with the "Classic Editor" link below the post on the WP Admin > Posts page. From there, I was able to see a Writing Helper section below the post and I tested the "Save Draft" as well as the "Publish" buttons in the Publish panel at top right and both worked normally in my test.

Can you please write a short list of steps to reproduce this problem on your blog and report them to https://wordpress.com/help/contact ?

Ok

I had lots of

<tr><td><img........><?td>
<td>Text....</td>
</tr>

I add added an img from the media library and it didn’t drop it in the right place.

Aha, I see. So I think your testing steps would be something like this:

1. Enable Gutenberg.
2. Go to Posts > Add New.
3. Add a table block.
4. Try dragging and dropping an image into a cell in the table.

I found that images may be added to a table by using the "Inline Image" block, see #9514

That should help with adding images inside a table. For the missing save button, please do report that to WordPress.com support and give them as much information as possible. Thank you!
