For all you bloggers out there, if you’re using the Visual method of creating posts in WordPress, how many of you have copied text from somewhere (most likely a webpage) to the Visual editor in your WordPress blog, only to find that all of the formatting along with it has also come along? This is because your browser tries to help you by keeping the formatting intact, but, unbeknown to your browser, you usually DON’T want the gigantic font that the text is in, or the bold and italic formatting that has been applied to it.

If you have this problem, then what I normally do is copy the text, paste it into the address bar of my browser, select all of the text again, and then paste it back into your WordPress Visual editor. Bam! No more formatting.

I’m sure that at least a few people have had this problem before, and I can just imagine people copying and pasting the text to WordPress and reformatting all of it back to what you wanted it to be, to get the text just right. I even know of a few people who would typically copy and paste to Microsoft Word, modify it there, and then copy and paste it back into WordPress! I’m sure that a few people will make good use of this tip. If you have and find this useful, then let me know in the comments below!
