problem copying/pasting rich text & images within a post

[oferlaor]

I try to copy and paste text inside posts and it's not working on 2.0.7. I had to revert to a previous version. I didn't note the console error.

Does anyone else see this problem too?

So, 2.0.8 still has this issue. When I copy & paste text and an image from an existing post onto itself, it doesn't work and I get this error:

index.js:71 Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: Failed to execute 'insertBefore' on 'Node': The node before which the new node is to be inserted is not a child of this node.

From what I can see this is the new code for google docs, which thinks it is getting the html from a google docs, but in actuality if it gets the text/html from an editor, it breaks.

One more problem. If I copy from one post to another and I copy text/html - it uploads the image as if it's a new image.

Is there a way to turn on/off the text/html google docs feature? I think it should be opt-in.

@mcguffin are you able to reproduce this issue?

[mcguffin]

@oferlaor This Button enables/disables the plugin‘s pasting behaviour entierly, so whatever you copy from another post should pasted as-is:

(@see #49)

[mcguffin]

okay, I got it…

[oferlaor]

Right, but I need to only disable the Google docs behaviorCopying and pasting inside the editor or between posts is very common use case. The current behavior assumes it is a new Google doc, so it sometimes fails or uploads additional copies even when you cut/paste from another part of the document. Best regards,Ofer LaOrOn 19 Oct 2023, at 1:18, Jörn Lund ***@***.***> wrote: @oferlaor This Button enables/disables the plugin‘s pasting behaviour entierly, so whatever you copy from another post should pasted as-is: ***@***.*** #49) —Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or unsubscribe.You are receiving this because you were mentioned.Message ID: ***@***.***>

IMO, there should be a button to enable/disable google docs and a way to decide the default setting for it. It's far less common to copy/paste from google docs than moving content from one part of the post to another.

[mcguffin]

It's not only google docs, there's SVG detection too (if you copy from Adobe XD, Illustrator and alike).
I tend to just skip uploading, if the image URL is on the same domain.

[oferlaor]

Yeah, sounds like a good plan Any idea why I randomly get the error on the console ?

I agree, if anything gets in the way of very common functionality like copying+pasting in the body text, it's a non-starter. I also agree that it would be very helpful if there were a way to set default settings for the plugin -- we have a lot of users on our blog, and I can't guarantee that they're technically savvy and understand how to chagne the settings in their user page.
