I am trying to use custom HTML in a widget and I can't make an img tag to work because I have no idea where to store the image.

Where does one store an image inside a WordPress website ? And not by "Upload Image", no. By using FTP. Where exactly do I have to store images so that I can link them to an img tag.

  • Why not upload image? That would be the default way to store images in WordPress

wordpress by default stores the images in folders by month and year on /wp-content/uploads/folder_named_year_month and the paths to where they are store can be seen in database on the table wp_posts and the thumbenails on wp_postmeta.
