  I cannot find a way to copy text from Word or Notebook and paste it to my blog’s Post box. Right clicking on the box does not show “Paste” in the menu. What am I doing wrong?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Have you tried left-clicking in the post box first? Then, right-click near the flashing cursor? If your pointer is elsewhere in the box, it turns into an arrow (at least it does for me using Firefox on a PC) and the right-click menu doesn’t have a paste option then.

  Thanks micawbr. I was able to paste in the box with the setting to HTML. And then switch to Visual – and there it was. It works.

  @swafco2015, see our support document on pasting from Microsoft Word.

  I still find the only thing that works is to copy and then paste on the editor’s HTML tab. You then click back to Visual – and there it is.
