Gutenberg är den nya blockredigeraren i WordPress och introducerades för första gången i WordPress 5.0 i december 2018.
Alla gillar inte förändringen – vissa användare tycker att den är svår att arbeta med, och många vill klistra sig fast vid det de känner till.
Så om du saknar den klassiska redigeraren är du inte ensam.
I den här artikeln visar vi dig hur du inaktiverar Gutenberg och behåller den klassiska redigeraren med bara några enkla steg.
Vad är Gutenberg?
Gutenberg är namnet på blockredigeraren i WordPress. Den skapades för att göra skrivandet i WordPress mer modernt.
Det försöker fungera som ett page builder plugin och allow you to drag and drop objects into a post or page. Målet är att erbjuda mer flexibilitet och aktivera WordPress användare att skapa unika layouts för sitt innehåll med rikt multimediainnehåll.
Sedan lanseringen av WordPress 5.0 har blockredigeraren varit standard som redigerare i WordPress.
Varför inaktivera Gutenberg-redigeraren i WordPress?
Många webbplatsägare som har använt WordPress i flera år är mer bekväma med den klassiska redigeraren. Eftersom blockredigeraren är relativt ny kan det också hända att vissa tillägg ej är helt kompatibla med den.
Tack och lov finns det sätt att använda den klassiska redigeraren även i WordPress 5.0 eller senare.
I Följer sektion visar vi dig hur du enkelt inaktiverar Gutenberg och fortsätter att använda den klassiska WordPress redigerare.
Här är en snabb överblick över alla metoder som vi delar med oss av i den här przewodniken:
Är du redo? Låt oss sätta igång.
Metod 1. Inaktivera Gutenberg med tillägget WPCode (rekommenderas)
På WPBeginner rekommenderar vi att inaktivera Gutenberg med tillägget WPCode, det bästa tillägget för fragmenterade koder för WordPress.
WPCode gör det enkelt att lägga till anpassad kod i WordPress utan att behöva redigera ditt temas functions.php-fil. Så det finns ingen anledning att oroa sig för att din WordPress webbplats ska gå sönder.
Detta tillägg har också ett inbyggt bibliotek med fragment kodu som gör det enkelt att anpassa WordPress-funktioner.
I biblioteket hittar du kontrollerade fragment kodu för populära önskemål om funktioner som gillar att inaktivera Gutenberg, inaktivera WordPress REST API, inaktiveraautomatiska uppdateringar och mycket mer. Detta eliminerar behovet av att installera en massa tillägg för engångsbruk.
För att komma igång måste du installera och aktivera det gratis tillägget WPCode. Om du behöver hjälp kan du läsa vår przewodnik om hur du installerar ett tillägg till WordPress för steg-för-steg-instruktioner.
När tillägget är aktiverat måste du först gå till Code Snippets ” Library från din WordPress kokpanel.
Därefter ska du söka efter fragmentet ”Inaktivera Gutenberg Editor (använd Classic Editor)” och klicka på knappen ”Använd fragment”.
På nästa vy ser du att WPCode automatiskt har lagt till koden.
Den har också ställt in rätt infogningsmetod och lagt till en titel och märken för att hjälpa dig att komma ihåg vad koden är till för.
Därefter behöver du bara slå på/av strömbrytaren från ”inaktiverad” till ”aktiv”.
Efter det, gå vidare och klicka på knappen ”Uppdatera”.
Nu är det klart. Gutenbergs blockredigerare är nu inaktiverad och du kan använda Classic-redigeraren.
Metod 2. Inaktivera Gutenberg med tillägget Classic Editor
För den här metoden kommer vi att använda tillägget Classic Editor, som utvecklas och underhålls av rdzeńs bidragsgivare till WordPress.
Det första du behöver göra är att installera och aktivera tillägget Classic Editor. Om du behöver hjälp kan du läsa vår steg-för-steg przewodnik om hur du installerar ett tillägg till WordPress.
Tillägget fungerar direkt och inaktiverar Gutenberg-redigeraren vid aktivering.
Det tillåter dig också att behålla både Gutenberg och Classic redigerare på samma gång.
Du kan konfigurera detta i tilläggets inställningar. Gå bara till Inställningar ” Skriva i din WordPress administratörsområde. Du kommer att se alternativet att göra detta under ”Inställningar för klassisk redigerare.
Glöm inte att klicka på knappen ”Spara ändringar” för att butik dina inställningar.
Du kommer nu att se en ny länk under menyn Inlägg för att skapa nya inlägg med hjälp av den klassiska redigeraren.
Du kommer också att kunna redigera äldre artiklar med hjälp av den klassiska redigeraren.
Gå bara till sidan Inlägg ” Alla inlägg, så ser du en ”Redigera (Classic)” -länk under inläggen.
Metod 3. Använd Classic Editor med inaktivera Gutenberg tillägg
Om du vill inaktivera Gutenberg för vissa användare roller och post typer, då denna metod kommer att hjälpa dig att göra det.
Först måste du installera och aktivera tillägget Inaktivera Gutenberg. Om du behöver hjälp kan du läsa vår steg-för-steg przewodnik om hur du installerar ett tillägg till WordPress.
När du har aktiverat måste du besöka sidan Inställningar ” Inaktivera Gutenberg för att konfigurera inställningar för tillägget.
Som standard kommer tillägget att inaktivera Gutenberg överallt för alla användare på din webbplats. Men om du vill begränsa det till vissa användarroller och inläggstyper, vill du avmarkera alternativet ”Färdigbehandlad inaktivera”.
Om du avmarkerar den visas fler alternativ för att selektivt inaktivera Gutenberg för vissa användarroller, posttyper, temamallar eller enskilda posts.
Det här alternativet är bra om du använder ett tillägg till WordPress som inte är kompatibelt med Gutenberg men vill använda Gutenberg på andra delar av din webbplats.
WordPress är världens mest populära webbplatsbyggare och driver mer än 43% av alla webbplatser på internet. Det har tusentals tillägg och teman och driver alla typer av webbplatser, från butiker för e-handel till medlemsgemenskaper.
Många av dessa tillägg är nu kompatibla med blockredigeraren. WPForms innehåller till exempel ett anpassat block för kontaktformulär som tillåter dig att enkelt wstawić dina formulär i alla inlägg eller sidor med blockredigeraren.
Många verktyg från tredje part är dock fortfarande starkt beroende av den klassiska WordPress redigeraren och är kanske inte helt kompatibla med blockredigeraren.
Om så är fallet kan dessa Settings vara till stor hjälp för you.
Glöm inte att klicka på knappen ”Spara ändringar” för att butik dina inställningar.
Vi hoppas att den här artikeln hjälpte dig att inaktivera Gutenberg och behålla den klassiska redigeraren i WordPress. Du kanske också vill se vår lista över vanliga Gutenberg-frågor som besvaras eller vår przewodnik om hur du inaktiverar Fullskärmsredigeraren i WordPress.

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?
WPBeginner Support
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?

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

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.
Thank you again for the article.

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.

I have tried all of the instructions offered above and unfortunately for me, any page that i open to edit with classic editor contains nothing but red wavy lines. I do not have time to try more failed suggestions, so please tell me how to revert back to a previous word press version that worked as advertised.
Thank you.
WPBeginner Support
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:
https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-guide-how-to-restore-wordpress-from-backup/
We would also recommend letting the support for the Classic Editor plugin know about your issue and they may be able to assist.

Estefania Campoblanco
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,
WPBeginner Support
Hi Estefania,
Some design elements may not appear as they did in new editor.

Am I screwed? I have a free version blog using WordPress (wordpress.com). Am I correct in saying that I don’t have an option for the Classic Editor plugin, unless I upgrade to the business plan? The free version doesn’t allow for plug ins
WPBeginner Support
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.
Administratör
Jewel
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.
Yves
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 ?
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,
MJ

Hi Mario,
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.
Kind Regards,
MJ

Hi Mario,
A number of issues can trigger this error. For example, on one of our test blogs we noticed the error when the WordPress URLs were different in our General our settings.
You may want to follow our WordPress troubleshooting guide to find out what’s causing the issue.

did I miss something? How do you disable Gutenberg if you only have a wordpress.com blog if you can’t install plug-ins? I have two wordpress.com blogs and I really want to keep the classic editor for both.

Hey, thank you for the article. When I use the classic editor plugin I only have the option for editor instead of both visual and editor. So basically I can’t see my headings and titles as they are in code. Any suggestions for what I am doing wrong? Thanks!

Hi Brie,
The classic editor does not switch the old editor to HTML mode. You should still be able to use the old visual editor.

Why do I need a plugin to remove a change I did not want, nor need? In other words why am I doing work I shouldn’t be? The other editor worked fine for me and learning a new one is definitely not within my resources at the moment.
Xarah Dax
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
Chris Hughes
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.
What a disaster from wordpress
GD
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.

HI GD,
You can opt-out of using the blocks editor by disabling it and keep using the classic editor. Meanwhile, your feedback will help core developers in improving blocks editor and make it better.

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.
WPBeginner Support
Hi Tim,
We have tested both plugins after installing WordPress 5.0. They both work out of the box. Perhaps you are missing something.
Administratör
Jeremy
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.
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!

Gutenberg editor is not newbie friendly. For those who have been blogging and editing their own blogs via WordPress they can figure things out but for those who are just starting out, it will be disappointing!

Is the Classic Word Editor for web sites or just blog sites? I have a website that includes a blog. I installed and activated it but there was no option in settings to disable Gutenberg, only Block editor? I have disabled it for now.
WPBeginner Support
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.

Bailey
I’m just starting my blogging. I’ve only done a little to set up my site and it’s going very slow due to learning curve so I’m wondering if I should just wait until Gutenberg comes out so I don’t have to learn two ways of building it? It looks so much easier for a novice blogger but I don’t want to assume that and waste time not moving forward. Just hoping to get an expert opinion! Thanks!!
WPBeginner Support
Hi Bailey,
You don’t need to wait for Gutenberg to come out. You can go ahead and install it right now as a plugin.
Administratör
AC Bloom
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? And we won’t need to download the Disable Gutenberg plugin either? Still confused as to why we’d need to download and activate both as some people are suggesting. Cheers!
WPBeginner Support
Hi,
Classic Editor and Disable Gutenberg are two plugins. They offer to solve the same problem. You can choose one of them to use on your website.
Administratör
Carolann
Hi, do we install this plugin before the update or wait until it releases, then install it?
WPBeginner Support
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.
Administratör
Carolann
do we want for the release first and then install the plugin or install it now before the release?
John Le Fevre
Gutenberg is a total disaster for a busy WordPress site. Perhaps okay for a blogger tutning out a couple of posts a day. It will add 15 minutes per hour to our workflow.
Alireza
So you can use Disable Gutenberg plugin now
