 * I upgraded to WP5.9 today and have two questions to which I can’t seem to find
   an answer for online:
    1. I normally type up my posts in MS Word first and then
   copy and paste them into WP. With the upgrade, the paragraphs don’t copy correctly.
   So if I have a paragraph in MS Word it removes the lines between the paragraphs
   and clumps everything together in one big paragraph in WP. The only stuff that
   doesn’t get clumped together is bullet points. 2. I’m unable to add a post title,
   after writing a post in WP.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fchanging-a-post-title%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Thank you for the document [@t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) I’ve
   been copying and pasting in WP for years without a problem until I upgraded to
   5.9. Hence my question. When pasting into WP it no longer seems to take the formating
   across (except for bullets). All the paragraphs in MS word are clumped together
   into one paragraph block in WP.
 * And any ideas WRT the Post Title question?
