Issue with native copy & paste

Hello,

I have a MacBook and Webflow says it can’t read my native clipboard. I don’t have any special keyboard preferences and the website I am copying from was NOT in read only mode. Do you have any other solutions/recommendations?

Hi there,

To copy elements in the Webflow Designer, here are some troubleshooting steps:

First, ensure you’re using the correct keyboard shortcuts: Command + C to copy and Command + V to paste on Mac (or Control + C and Control + V on Windows). Try copying a single element first to isolate any potential issues. If you’re still having trouble, clear your clipboard before attempting to copy new elements.

You can also use the right-click menu to copy and paste elements, or duplicate elements using Alt + Drag (Option + Drag on Mac). These alternative methods might work better in some cases.

Hopefully this helps! If you still need assistance, please reply here so somebody from the community can help.

I still need help.

I am unable to copy and paste any element/component from one webflow site to another, but I am able to copy and paste text.

First thing would be to try another browser for that operation e.g. Chrome v. Safari.
If that works it could be a browser extension conflicting?

Thank you for the suggestion. It works in Chrome but not Safari

Unfortunate cause Safari is my favourite browser

I’d message support on this, but this is apparently not a new problem.
