  Hi @knittingtoday, I’m not sure I understand — I’m able to select text in a paragraph block by double tapping the word, then selecting more as I like.

  If you’re running into something else, can you let us know what browser you’re using? I’m on Chrome with a Mac, both up to date.

  Or, if I’ve misunderstood completely, please clarify and we’ll help from there. Thank you!

  Double tapping does not select a word in the paragraph block. it works in the title block though. I’ve also tried Ctrl-arrow. I’m using Chrome and windows10.

  I tested in Firefox. It didn’t work there either.

  That is a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which we really can’t help with here.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at https://wordpress.org/support/ and support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  thanks. I have both types of blogs and didn’t realize until this had posted. I did test and no problems in .com.
