With the release of WordPress 5.0, the old classic editor was replaced with the new modern Gutenberg block editor. However, some individuals had a tough time adjusting, especially those who use older plugins. Fortunately, it’s easy to bring back the old editor.
The easiest way to disable the Gutenberg editor is to download the Classic Editor plugin. This plugin allows the user to deactivate the old editor, or use both the new and old editors simultaneously. This comes in handy if the old editor is only partially needed for a specific function. To enable or disable this setting, go to Settings » Writing» Default editor for all users.Â
