# Textarea fields issue

 *  Resolved [Tano](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanohex/)

 * [4 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/textarea-fields-issue/)
 * I noticed that the text input fields are not recognized as textarea, therefore
   the context menu doesn’t allow copying and pasting.
    Only commands CTRL+C/CTRL
   +V work.
 * Right click on Course Description textarea:
    [](https://i0.wp.com/i.ibb.co/BtdNyLs/paste.png?ssl=1)
 * Also, I didn’t want to open another thread just for this second minor issue:

   As you can see in the video recording above, when you visit the **Users** tab,
   and then select **Instructors**, the Users menu entry stops being highlighted.
   Happens only to the Users-Instructors combination.
 * Thanks!

 * Hello [@tanohex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanohex/)
 * 1. Actually, you need to click inside the course highlights bullet area in order
   to copying and paste. Screen record link: [https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/9356483?key=2415019b507145c9056b36d342b9a8f2](https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/9356483?key=2415019b507145c9056b36d342b9a8f2)
   
   Also, we will be adding shortcut commands like CTRL + B for bold, CTRL + I for
   italic and CTRL + U for underline in the next update.
 * 2. Thank you for pointing out the issue. We will fix it in the coming updates.
 * Thank you.

 * [@lihsaa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lihsaa/) I’m sorry, but I believe
   you misunderstood my first report.
    Why would you need the context menu in the
   Course Highlights? These are short bullet points…
 * You mostly need it in the **Course Description** and **Lesson Description**, 
   as an instructor will need to copy-paste larger blocks of text.
 * **Recording 1:** [https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/9358502?key=8df86021236375c9f466b695ab008bea](https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/9358502?key=8df86021236375c9f466b695ab008bea)
 * **Recording 2:** [https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/9358610?key=e67cd85300ed09af6486dcd368cc9204](https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/9358610?key=e67cd85300ed09af6486dcd368cc9204)
 * So again, the **textbox** isn’t enabled in the most important text input areas:**
   Course Description** and **Lesson Description**.

 * Hi [@tanohex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanohex/)
 * Sorry for the misunderstanding. As per your queries regarding the text area, 
   you can copy-paste in the editor of the course and lesson description as well.
   First, you need to left-click on the editor where your cursor is blinking and
   then you can right-click there to see a copy-paste context menu.

 * Thank You.

 * [@lihsaa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lihsaa/) Oops, my bad.
    It works
   only if you’re with the mouse in the cursor area. I thought it was like in Word
   or like here in the Forum, where Right Click actually moves the cursor and lets
   you paste anywhere.
 * Thanks!
