copy paste text within the same wordpress table
-
in the last week or so (August/Sept 2023) I’ve noticed that I am no longer able to copy text from one cell to another cell in the same wordpress ‘table’. I can copy/paste from ‘paragraph’ and any other external source.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @swmv, thanks for that clear description. I see what you mean, and I was able to find the relevant bug here. That will be fixed in an upcoming update, and we’ll take care of that update for you so long as your site is with us.
For now, can you “paste as plain text” ? On my system, that’s command+shift+v. That seems to work without an issue, but let us know if you need more help.

hi supernovia, thank’s for that. On a mac the function called ‘paste and match style’ does the trick, but you need many fingers to press all 4 keys; ‘option_shift_cmd_v’ :)

Thanks! I’m also on Mac with Chrome; command+shift+V works here! You might give it a try; one less finger to worry about!

hi supernovia, i also use the wordpress app on my mac and that doesn’t support the ‘plain_text / paste_match_style’ command.
I use safari and the 3-key option doesn’t work, you have to get those fingers to work :)
thanks, marinko

Just wanted to add that I also have this same problem! I use Opera GX and Firefox and in both browsers it also doesn’t work. (windows)
-
Thanks folks. Looks like a fix is in and will be released in an update. Keep pasting as plain text for now!

Hey there,
There’s no set time for releases, but this page details the releases, https://wordpress.org/news/category/releases/ so it’s something to keep track of.
I hope this helps!
