Stripping formatting from cut and pastes

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

This new forum software continues to be terrible IMO.


Any way to turn off formatting in cut and pastes? As it is now, I have to cut and paste into Notepad, and then copy and paste into the forum.

Yes, there's a way.  Just give me a bit to try and remember how I turned it off for myself.

Try this:

Go to your profile, then under the modify profile drop-down menu, click on the "look and layout" menu item.

On the look and layout page, find the option labeled "Show WYSIWYG editor on post page by default."  Uncheck the box for that option.

Well I like the WYSIWYG. When I copy and paste from Twitter, it tries to keep the formatting and usually is buggy as hell.

I understand that, but I think if you uncheck the option it will help. If you're using the quick reply function

You can click on preview and get to the wysiwyg editor easily.
