Hi @Daywalker01,
Just tried this on my machine.
Using Fedora 35 & Firefox 94. Copying from the terminal and pasting, using the middle mouse button, into a code block worked without issue. I tested using both gnome terminal and alacritty.
There's a lot of variables that could affect the copy and paste of content along those steps (Browser, browser packaging environment, display server, desktop environment, terminal application). It's going to take a lot of time to play around with those to find the cause (And see if it's on BookStack's side), so I personally wouldn't want to spend much more effort on this unless a specific change to be made could be pointed out.

You are right...
It works on a (fresh installed) Chromium Browser, but it wont on an empty Firefox 90 (no plugins, also tried private window)
OS is Kubuntu 20.10
I am sorry for the inconvenience. I should have tested a little more.
There are no other websites presenting this issue in Firefox, therefore I assumed it had something to do with BookStack
(Unfortunately, i don't like Chromium, and prefer Firefox + uMatrix + uBlock Origin)
Any Ideas where I could look?
PS.: I guess this issue can be closed
@ssddanbrown commented on GitHub (Nov 30, 2021):
Not totally sure.
Our code blocks use codemirror. You could give one of their demos a go with pasting. Might indicate if it's a issue in all codemirror instances or just within BookStack or the version we use.
Otherwise, Could try updating Firefox since
90is a couple of versions old.Could also upgrade to a new OS. Kubuntu 20.10 reached end-of-life in July: https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-20-10-groovy-gorilla-reaches-end-of-life/
(That might be why you're not getting FireFox updates?)
Will therefore close this as it's not an active issue for us to look into but feel free to continue to comment if needed.

As you just pointed out, I totally forgot that my Kubuntu installation was outdated...
After an upgrade (Kubuntu 21.04 for now) and Firefox 94.0 things still don't work as expected... :(
I even created a whole new user, to start off with a clean slate, and Firefox Profile. Still no luck...
(If you still have some Ideas left, I'd appreciate them.
If not, still thank you, for this Application :)

Possibly related. Might be something that acts differently between xorg and wayland. I'm on Wayland.
