 * I found the solution of the first part: the word “html” was a misleading so they
   changed it to “text” in the new version but it has the same function.
 * I do need some help on how to copy/paste some html5 code from my old site to 
   WP.
 * Any advice!!

 * There is no text that you want to output in that code. If you have text, WordPress
   will mostly strip the coding and convert it to text that you can use in the normal
   way.

 * Try using[ a JavaScript library](http://d3js.org) to append the _more complex
   svg code_ onto your document.
