Are you talking about the “paste as plain text” issue?

Try logging out, clear your browser cache and cookies, restart your browser and then try again.

If you are pasting from notepad (into either the visual or the HTML tabs), you can paste directly into the editor. There is no need to use the “paste as plain text” option.

My “paste as plain text” is not working in visual either. Logging out and clearing out cache and cookies did not help.

Report it via your dashboard Help button. The more people who report it, the sooner it’ll be fixed.

You can switch the editor to HTML and paste the text there: simpler, same result.

I’ve got clients I’ve got doing that and with this current version of the editor, it doesn’t always come in clean, or stay clean.

Just sayin…

May I suggest trying an offline blog editor like windowslivewriter?

No. Report it yourself. Hardly anyone ever does report these things, assuming everyone else already has.

I ALREADY said that i did report it ( above ) and i have and got 2 replies waiting on my 3rd one but they seem to blame the browser or cookies etc or my pc but none of that is to blame

i’ll wait and see what answer they come back with
