How to copy/paste into a new forum post or ...



Recommended Posts

...how to open an attachment into the post?

It's rare that, when I want to cut/paste or copy/paste into a post I'm typing, I get a window with options that have nothing to do with those operations. It offers Save Page As and others, including something about Frame. Is there an alternate, sure-fire method of pasting into BP posts?

A good alternative would be the ability to open an attachment into the body instead of having it as a link.

It's a Word document that I would like to enter into my post. I did it some months ago, and can only surmise being surprised by the proper cut/copy/paste window appeared.

Tech Wiz here.

P.S. If it helps, here's the post I'm speaking of: www.bariatricpal.com/topic/362324-greater-new-york-bariatric-surgery-clothing-exchange-april-2016/

Copying and pasting from word to anywhere online that uses rich text or other online editors has always been an issue. We plan on upgrading this site as well as the text editor within the next 90 days or so. This should improve copying and pasting from word to bariatric pal.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
