EDIT: Now Resolved - Issue with selecting and deleting text due to new highlight feature pop up

I'm currently unable to highlight a paragraph of text and delete it. There appears to be a new feature that is promoting the ability to highlight text. Each time I attempt to select the text I'd like to delete, the pop up reappears. 

There is likely a simple solution that I'm just missing, but I'm stumped. How can I get the SquareSpace pop up to go away for good? I've tried clicking "skip" and the other buttons - it still continues to popup.  Link to show issue: https://share.vidyard.com/watch/vdL2N9zXcuFohWmLA6dq16?

EDIT: This issue has now been resolved. 

Currently having this issue as well, I can't edit any text on my website as a result of the "highlights" popup.

I'm also having this issue and unable to edit any text on my website. 

Same issue here as well. Tried even hiding the modal by using Dev Tools in Chrome, but as soon as I click another text box the "highlight feature pop-up" comes right back. Super frustrating. Can't edit any text on a website that's launching January 1st. Hopefully there's a fix soon.

EDIT: My site started working again - I didn't change anything or do anything differently, just reloaded the page and it started working. Maybe they're working on a fix?

Same here. Trying to wrap up a client's site today and this delay is super frustrating.

I'm currently working on getting through to support via chat. I'll post an update once I have one. Thanks for letting me know it isn't me goofing something up - sounds like a site wide issue. 

Same here, can't get anything done on the site until this is fixed.  Some programmer really screwed up this one!

Looks like the functionality has returned. Yay for a quick fix. Thanks for the input. Happy editing!

SS does have a tendency to repeatedly hit you with new feature dialogs and ads in an annoying manner.

I'm still being asked to choose my Store page layout design every several interactions even though the new layouts were released ages ago.

I am having the same issue right now. It has not been resolved. 

Issue for me as well. The feature keeps popping up and isn't letting me type anything.

5.14 pm eastern time. Still having this issue.

Even a page refresh is not working for me.

Having the same issue just now as well.
