  Hi….so when my client sends out a mail chimp campagin they want it on their website too. If I cut an paste it the formatting gets messed up which I understand as there is different css involved.

  Is there a quick fix to make it work? Otherwise I have to reenter the posts and then I run into diffuiculty getting good alignment with the text and the photos. I posted about that earlier today.

  Here’s a page where I pasted the in the mail chimp:

  here’s the mail chimp it came from:

  There’s got to be a better to do this than what I’m doing. Any advice appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hi there,

  My best advice is to copy only the text that you specifically want to add to the site. So, in this case, you probably wouldn’t want to copy the header image or text, since that’s already represented on the site.

  Another thing you could try is copying the whole email, and pasting it into the post editor, using the Paste as Text button:

  Then, you can delete all the stuff that isn’t necessary, and make any formatting changes you’d like, in the WordPress.com post editor.
