Hi Maverick.
I suddenly lost the ability to edit on the page I was working on
Please details - what you mean? The "Edit Content" feature disappeared from your toolbar? Or it looks disabled(grayed) on toolbar?
Or you can activate such tool but cannot select by mouse, move or edit content items on the page?

Cheers.

I had a pressing deadline and deleted the page. I should have described the problem as the inability to copy and paste. A colleague suggested I "flattened" the page and that is what caused the issue. Thanks for the response.

Hi Maverick8080,

By flattening a page - all comments on it will become base content and copy/paste of base content is not possible at the moment.
Please note that this is a one way operation and cannot be reversed, save a copy prior to doing this if you still wish to have your annotations editable yourself.

Our developers are working on the copy/paste of base content feature. This feature should be available in the upcoming builds.

Regards,
Radi
