     If neither of these plugins was able to revert you to the classic editor, you may want to disable your other plugins to ensure this isn’t a plugin conflict.

   You cannot install ANY plugins on Wordpress if you don’t “upgrade to the business plan” as is what happens when you go to the plugin page. For the zillions of us who have blogs on there and are forced into the block editor, what do we do?

     To clarify, our tutorials are for WordPress.org sites, not WordPress.com sites: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/self-hosted-wordpress-org-vs-free-wordpress-com-infograph/
     If you click the three vertical dots in the top right of the editor they may have the option to swap to the classic editor.

   Gutenberg is very annoying. Add the below code to your theme function file

   add_filter(‘use_block_editor_for_post’, ‘__return_false’);

   Save and have fun.

   • WPBeginner Support

     That is one method, we recommended the plugins as those are easier for beginners to disable if they would like to use the editor in the future

   I’ve been using the Classic Editor for awhile now and it works great. Some of my editing features are missing though. There is no longer an option to change the color or font size and underline is missing too. Is there a way to fix that?

   • WPBeginner Support

     Those were likely added by the tinyMCE Advanced plugin if you were using that previously

    Super Mega Thank you!!!

    Would you have any estimated idea of when wordpress developer intend to force everyone to use the Gutenberg editor?

    Where best to leave them feedback?

    It messes up my whole website structure and all of a sudden pictures disappeared from post without me being able to access.

      The classic editor plugin plans to be officially supported until December 2021 at the moment. If you visit the Gutenberg plugin page they have information on how to leave feedback

    THank you for the article. I have searched for hours trying to get my drafts saved and my posts published with no success. I even played the permissions in the files sections of my cPanel. Nothing worked until after many searches through Wordpress forums and after reading 10’s of Google suggestions on “How to get my posts saved” or “Posts won’t save in Wordpress” I finally found your article and I didn’t know that was so simple to solve that problem. I simply installed the plugin Classic Editor and it worked right away! Thanks again!

    Thank you for the informative article. The new editor is the most time consuming and complicated editor ever, (this thing is unresponsive and lugs continuously) which they shoved it to our throats. forcing us to run yet another plugin, for something that didn’t need a plugin in the first place.

    Ive been experiencing issues with the editors today. We had the Classic editor installed on a few sites but two of them will now not change to text tab view from visual tab in the editor screen. Both have Bakery visual builder plugin installed which i thought might be the issue but even when disabling that plugin i still have same issue. Ive tried both suggested plugins and get the same results. Im now looking for any other option as really dont want to use Guttenburg. Any ideas would be gratefully received. Thanks.

      Sadly, at the moment we do not have a recommended method for reverting your WordPress version. If you have a backup of your site you should be able to restore it using:

      We would also recommend letting the support for the Classic Editor plugin know about your issue and they may be able to assist.

    Hi, I’m currently taking way longer than intended whenever I’m writing a new post. My editing tool bar doesn’t have the tools i need it to have and is very limited, as it seems to be not compatible with the puglin I downloaded for it to adjust to my needs. As I was half through a post when I decided to install the new version of Wordpress, it wasn’t as hard to use because i had little work left to do. So my question here is: if I download the classic editor, will my published post (that used images blocks) remain the way it is right now? Or will it be altered when i switch back to classic one?

    Thank you,

    Rispondi

      On WordPress.com when editing your post, in the top right under the verticle ellipses you should have more options and under there should be the option to swap to the classic editor for now.

        Same here with the free account. However, when I switch back to the classic editor the scroll bar is no longer existent. So I can’t scroll through my post. How do I get the scroll bar back in classic editor because the new editor leaves much to be desired. Thanks

        • WPBeginner Support

          You would sadly need to reach out to WordPress.com’s support for that. We do not have control over anything that WordPress.com is offering and our recommended solutions are for WordPress.org sites.

    • Greg

      Thanks for the advice on where to find the Classic Editor option.
      I have a free Wordpress.com account too, and my workaround was to start in Gutenberg for the title, then save, jump back to All Posts and then reopen in Classic. Tedious? Time consuming? Sure. But I felt like a blind man with a Rubik’s cube when I tried to use Gutenberg.

    Hello I installed the classic editor plugin ant it works fine but when I create a new post, the editor is by default on “text editor” and not “visual editor”

    IS there a way to enter a new post in visual editor by default ?

    Rispondi

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Yves,

      After switching to the visual editor, WordPress remembers your preference when you click on the save or publish button. Then the next time you edit a post it will open the Visual editor.

    Hello Team,

    I’ve never been able to use Gutenberg plugin.
    Every time, I try to save a post I get an error message: “updating failed”.
    First of all, I got Wordpress updated to version 5.0.
    But before the update, I had already installed Gutenberg.
    After the update, I tried to use it.
    The issue persists.

    I hope you can provide some advice.
    Thanks.
    Regards,

      You can uninstall the Gutenberg plugin. It has now become part of the WordPress core so you don’t need the plugin.

        Hello,

        I did the following actions:
        a. clicked on settings and set the classic editor as default.
        b. I installed Wordpress 5.0
        c. Uninstalled Gutenberg plugin as it is integrated already with Wordpress 5.0

        But, the result was the same. Issue persists: “updating failed”.
        Do you have another suggestion?

        Gutenberg appearance looks great and I would love learning how to use it.

        Thanks in advance for your support.

      Thank you so much for this tutorial. I wholeheartely hate Gutenberg. There is a reason why I don’t like Jimdo and Wix and so on. And why I love Wordpress. I really don’t understand why they went that way. It’s ugly and complicated. More importantly though: I really don’t have the time to learn those blocks. I need to be able to write and then I format. Done.
      Though, my screens look a lot different than yours but I use Multisite so maybe that’s why.
      Again, THANK YOU!

    I installed the “Classic Editor” plugin. When I go to Settings –> Writing, I don’t get the wording you said, but I get
    Default Editor for all users with radio buttons for Classic Editor and Block Editor.
    Underneath that I get Allow users to switch editors yes/no

    I been blogging for over 10 years and I hate the new Gutenberg. It is not user friendly and makes writing posts so much longer. For starters you can only add 1 image at a time and there not even any instructions on using the interface.

      I’ve used WP on dozens of blogs for over 10 years. This is the first time in 10 years I’ve thought about getting a custom CMS built. The old editor was fine. For those that wanted changes, there were plugins, or experienced WP coders.

    Newsflash people… Classic Editor does NOT work. Disable Gutenberg plugin does NOT work.

    Nothing works. Whatever typing screen you’re on – it still shows the annoying Gutenberg. No Classic Editor, no nothing. Both plugins are useless. Not one of them works out of the box, no changes are seen, so that’s what we have.

    If anyone actually knows how to Disable Gutenberg now – after the WP 5.0 update, do let me know.

    Rispondi

        Or perhaps they are conflicting with other plugins that we are using.

        This type of update is far too advanced to be required to run side by side with our all our many plugins.

        And now we have to add an additional plugin to avoid it which further adds to the site load while increasing chances for conflict.

        The feature should have been left as a plugin and not build into the core.

        I’m not a developer but I would presume you would want the core as bare bone as possible in order to enable other software to built on top of it… now its this mess of an editor that is disrupting some of my already installed plugins…. which I may have to purchase new subscriptions to in order to receive updates to the new setup.

        Rispondi

    • Jeremy

      Classic editor worked on one of my sites… then on another it fixed the formatting but elements were inoperable.

      “Disable Gutenberg” plugin didn’t work for me at all.

      It’s ridiculous that I need to add addition plugin load to revert back to a classic layout.

      These changes are too advanced to be implemented in the core of WP and expect to not have conflicts across the entire marketplace.

      The block editor should have remained as a plugin!

      Hi Diane,

      Classic editor is for all kind of content. Gutenberg isn’t out yet, unless you have it installed as a plugin. Once it is out, the plugin will automatically disable it for you and you’d be able to continue using your WordPress site as it was.

    I’m just starting my blogging.

    Thanks for the advice. So if we don’t want Gutenberg at all, we should download and activate the Classic Editor now and then when the 5.0 update comes out we won’t notice any difference?

    Rispondi

      Hi Carolann,

      You can install it right now, it doesn’t do anything if you don’t have Gutenberg installed. With 5.0 Gutenberg will merge into the WordPress core and will be the default editor, so if you had the plugin already installed you wouldn’t notice the change. You can also choose to wait and install it after Gutenberg is merged into the core.
