Issue/Request:

I had a user encounter this problem and was able to recreate it on my PC.

When we were using IE 11.0.28 to do edits on the site, we could not paste in any content at all. We couldn’t paste into the WYSIWYG window either in filtered mode or html mode and we couldn’t paste into any windows like a link window. Further, if one of those overlays (like the Create Link overlay) was up, it would lock and we couldn’t get back to the normal edit mode without first going “back” in the browser then going into Edit mode again.

This problem only happened with IE. We could edit fine in Chrome and Firefox on both PC’s.

Hello Campbell,

This is a known bug in CKEditor. Are you using the keyboard commands or the mouse right click? I believe you should still be able to use the right click option on your mouse. We are looking for a solution to this bug.
