Are you hating the new WP Block Editor? Check this post out by Pete.
If anyone who reads this is not happy with the new Block Editor, if you don’t want to use it, wish it had never happened, and quite literally hate the thing, then please reblog this post, share it constantly on social media, and let’s see if we can get WordPress to take notice of us.
Dear WordPress, you have started to force the Block Editor on your blogging community. You must have your reasons for this, and I supect they are commerical ones. After all, you have to make a profit, and you continue to provide a basic blogging platform free of charge to the majority of your bloggers.
However.
You will also be aware that a significant percentage of your loyal bloggers absolutelyHATEthis new Block Editor. It is not intuitive, and we can see no good reason for it having to be forced on us.
It is…

I’m still using the old editor, but I have to say that I got a very helpful video from fraggle about the new blog editor. Have to admit that made it all very clear! 😊

I think we should contact the help desk for each and every question that we have. They’ll get overwhelmed by requests and might do something.

I’m not sure what to tell you. You’re the first one I’ve heard that didn’t know anything about this. WP started telling people months ago that they were upgrading. Once the new Block Editor was in place you could still use classic. Now they’re sending emails out saying you need to use the new upgrade. Technically you can still get to classic, but it’s not the same and the whole thing is very glitchy.

I don’t know the exact time frame, but if officially changed at least a couple of months ago. I have no idea why yours hasn’t changed yet, but at some point it will.

That’s odd Christina. You’re only the second person who’s said this. This is definitely WP’s new upgrade though.

I did see today at the top of my dashboard and when i went to add new post: “There’s an easier way to create posts on WordPress.com. Switch to the new block editor. Learn more.” The last two sentences being links. Looks vaguely familiar but I never clicked it because why bother when the current tools were just fine and I knew how to use them.
