If I click "disable WYSIWYG editing" then I can paste again.

I have done some research and it turns out that our site software uses the CKeditor for the WYSIWYG editor and currently it is not compatible with IE 11 in the version we have in our site software.

I have raised a bug report with the people who make our site software.

In the meantime, you have three choices:
(1) Use the quick reply
(2) Disable the WYSIWYG editing
(3) Use a different browser like Safari, Chrome or Firefox

Ok, I run a Mac. So give me a chance to run up a Win 7 VM and upgrade it to IE 11 and see.

It's IE 11 and Windows 7.

Every other Forum I use I don't have this issue.

So I am replying to this message now. If I copy your reply "I just copy......" and then try and paste (CTRL-V) the text - nothing - nada!

If I open a word document - type in text and then copy - nothing - will try Firefox.

Can't paste anything into messages

Hi,
I have tried all ways to paste into messages:

1. Addint text to Word - copying and then pasting - no joy.
2. Pasting website links - no joy.
3. Pasting links from Photobucket - no joy

I have tried CTRL-V and used the paste options - nothing works. Am I missing something? I can paste on all other car forums with no issues.

Thanks
