Description greatbunzinni 2009-01-18 16:09:55 UTC

Version:           0.99.01 (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

If a user copies an excerpt of formatted text (i.e., text from some web page viewed in any browser) and pastes it in the body text field from the "New Article" window, the newly pasted text preserves it's formatting instead of only pasting the plain text content. If the article is then sent to the outbox and re-edited, the text is now displayed without any formatting.

It would be nice if it was possible to only paste plain text into the body text box, avoiding any formatting that may be present in the source document.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
