Hello, I have a text box which I would like to add another text box into. See below. When I move the text box into the existing frame the blue box is there but the text is not.  See second image.  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or what I need to do so the text remains in place?

Text warp is moving text away. Apply an Object Style where ignore text warp is active or cmd/ctrl+B.

But you have way to many text frames in your layout.
