Jennifer, you MUST write your blog here.  If you write it on Word or Google Drive or any other place you will bring over hidden script that will totally screw up the look of your blog.  It has happened to me many times and this is what support has told me.  It's true.  I never bring anything over any more.

It happens from time to time when I try to make changes after copying and pasting into AR.

I have a post that won't post right now.  Hoping it's a glitch. Saved it and I'll check back and try to re-post from draft later.

Jennifer,

I do when I paste from Word, especially when I change font sizes.  So I have to go back and check when I publish it.  Rest assured, it never was that way before all the Trulia changes, and I am sure this will get fixed along with everything else. A

Yes.  Word and the ActiveRain editor don't co-exist very well.  You can try pasting your blog using CTRL-SHIFT-V which will paste without formatting.  Then apply the available formatting from the ActiveRain editor.

It's a lot of aggravation to copy and paste your blogs.  You are better off to write them here.

 Good  Friday morning Jennifer. No, I don't. I write all of my posts in Scribefire  and then copy/paste them into the active brain dialog box.

This is something we hear about and experience from time to time (and I don't even copy and paste my posts from elsewhere).

No, no issues at all.  However, I open the blog and start writing.  Not a lot can go wrong that way.

Jennifer Ferri - it's possible. I'd suggest save your word document as HTML and upload the HTML code to blog. This should preserve your fonts, style etc. 

If there are pictures in your post, you may want to do it using Responsive File Manager after posting.

Feel free to reach me if you have any other questions. Good Luck.
