No longer able to "copy code" for sms codes with right click in imessage

Since updating to Sequoia 15.0, I am no longer able to "copy code" for SMS codes with a right click in iMessage.


I believe this is a bug or a feature that was dropped from this release. It was a very helpful tool for SMS codes that do not autofill (which often happens when using Chrome instead of Safari).


Are there plans to fix this? It's a real inconvenience.

MacBook Air, macOS 15.0

Thanks for your response! Most sites in Safari do autoload but often not in Chrome (for me anyway).


I too can manually copy the code from the message but I need to highlight the code in the text manually before copying, whereas before Sequoia 15.0 upgrade, the code was underlined and "copy code" appeared automatically with a right click. This is the change I am referring to.

Thanks again. That makes me wonder if it's a setting thing. At the same time that I upgraded to Sequoia I got a new MacAir. I copied everything over from my MacBook Pro but maybe something didn't carry over. I haven't been able to find anything online or by going through general settings or iMessage settings/preferences that would disable this feature.
