  I was attempting to post and html file to a new post today. When I pulled up the blank post page, the tool — the one next to the text tool that had a “W” in it is missing and I am unable to copy and paste my htm file to my post. Please help.

  The blog I need help with is kawvalleybridge.wordpress.com.

  I have used the paste as text and then toggled the text off — can paste information into my post, but have lost formatting that was present when I was able to copy and paste an html file. Any suggestions?

  Thanks for your help.

  Others reported this yesterday too. I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting. Perhaps using the windows live writer will produce a better result http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/

  I am using a Macbook, so don’t know the windows live writer would work.
