Creating atemplate for customer. I go to the Developer tab and insert rich
or plain text content control. It places it on the page and then I can't
move it....no matter what I try. HELP!

To move the content control, you can right-click it and choose Cut from the
context menu; then paste it at the desired location.

Didn't work. It snaps to the left. I actually have four boxes on the page
(just for design). I want to place a rich text content control in the middle
of each box. I can't move it there.

What kind of "boxes" are you referring to? Note that for layout purposes,
you could use table cells (or text boxes) to place the content controls.

By "boxes" I mean I inserted a "shape." These shapes are meant to act not
only as a just a design feature, but also a border for parts of the page.
So, if I am making 6 cards on a page, I've placed the "shape" in six places
to show the borders of each card.

If you right-click a shape and click Add Text, you should be able to insert
content controls into it.
