  My blog ( http://www.royalexander.wordpress.com ) has allot of C# codeing examples in there.

  But how do I get the codeing in there with correct indenting (and if possible right colours) as I paste them from Visual Studio.

  If I paste them to word, word shows exactly what I want. But if I then use wordpresses “paste from word” option all the indenting is lost, and so is the colouring.

  If I paste it in using the normal paste function the indenting is gone as soon as I click ok. Is there a way for wordpress to store the indenting, or an editor I can paste my code to, from which I can paste my code so that WordPress will understand it, so far as I see it now wordpress just totally ignores “tab”.

  I see multiple blogs about coding and stuff, some of wich do have nice indenting but I just cant seem to get it right in my blog.

  This is what we have, but I’m not sure if it will work for you or not: http://faq.wordpress.com/2007/09/03/how-do-i-post-source-code/ .
