  I am trying to post a Word document as a post in WordPress that is basically a text list with hyperlinks embedded in the text.

  Example: Check out our new blog post, Innovation in Investment [title hyperlinked], to learn more.

  As of now, I am copying and pasting every link from the document into the WordPress post one by one. There are more than 60 links, so if seems very inefficient. Is there any way to transfer all of the hyperlink code into the post?

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

  Hello @idealnico,
  You can directly copy paste all the links from the Word document to the Post Editor. The links will be retained.

  But make sure that you copy and paste it on the Visual tab and not on the HTML tab. Pasting it on the HTML tab will paste the links as plain texts.

  Hope this helps 🙂
