Cut and paste ?

[Rolf]

It seems that when I copy and then try to paste into a post it will not let me do that?

I sometimes compose my post in word, then copy and past.

Also links to web sites don't paste.

 

Is this deliberate?

Try pressing "print screen" above the f10 button to copy

Rolf, I just did it and it worked.  When you right click in your post, do you see a "paste" option?  If not move  you cursor and right click again.  Sometimes I do not get the paste option I get the options for "save page" and such.  When i move my cursor somewhere else in the box I post in and right click the "paste" set of options is there.  Hope this makes some sense.

 

 

I just copied/pasted this site address, so it works.

If I was to guess, you're probably using Internet Explorer.

Seems to be a problem with Internet Explorer.  Lots of people are having trouble with copy and paste (https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=IE11%20can't%20paste).  There really isn't a good solution from what I can tell.  It seems most people get frustrated with IE and switch to Firefox or Chrome.  
 
Here's a workaround, though.  In the upper left corner, click the icon that looks like a light switch.  This will take you into BB Code.  You can paste your text there.  It will strip away all of your formatting (if you created any).  Then click it again to get back into your formatting mode.
