Backgrounds, text and pictures

[RRx3]

I hope someone can help.
I am producing a double spread for a magazine. What I want is a background image to cover the spread, and then put text on top. Fine, but then I want to put some more images on the spread. I would like the text to flow around these.
I have tried layers and creating a new master (with only the background).
The only way for the text to appear correctly, is to tick the 'ignore text wrap'. This allows the txt through, but how do I now get these words to wrap on the 'new' pictures?

If you have different objects, with text wraps on different layers, you can hide the layer you're not working on, click on it and pick layer options from the layers window flyout menu. Check "suppress text wrap when hidden". You won't get any new wraps on that layer.

On your active layers, select a graphic and then open the "type & tables/text wrap" window to set the wrap.
