    I’m pressing the button, and the box comes up, but it’s just a blank box. Wait and wait, but still nothing.

    Any ideas?

    I’m trying to paste from word. I press the little ‘W’ button in WordPress post editor and a blank box comes up. It was working previously. I didn’t make any changes that would affect core WordPress / back end behavior.

    I’ve tried turning off cloudflare and cache plugin to make sure that wasn’t the issue.

    The browser is TRYING to load it, it just never comes up. Tries for about 10 seconds, then stops and just sits there as a blank box.

    MS Word:

    – try pasting your text into NotePad (or another text editor) first, then copy from NotePad into WordPress (I always do this way). Or use Windows LiveWriter.

    I will try. I’m trying to past quite large tables. Not sure if your suggested method will work with tables or not. I need to retain the table format.

    If your suggestion works, it still doesn’t explain why the function won’t work. Same with the ‘T’. Hmm…
