    • TIP: Using Categories and Keywords

      Just a quick hint on assigning Categories and Keywords to your posts. On the main editor page (after clicking 'Create A New Post'), just below the 'Message' field, you'll notice two additional fields labeled 'Keywords' and 'Categories'. To add keywords to your post, simply type in words or phrases, separated by commas in the Keywords field. Spaces are allowed between the words in a phrase, but do not place spaces between the commas. One or more categories can also be easily assigned but holding...

If you click the Smiley button and the Smiley menu appears over the Message field, avoid moving your mouse over the Message field itself when moving to the Smiley menu. This...

In other words, right-clicking your mouse in expectation of any type of Copy/Paste functionality will leave you feeling a bit disappointed. Not to worry, however, as there is a solution to this little problem. TO PASTE into the editor window from another application...
