Plugin Information
Classic Editor is an official plugin maintained by the WordPress team that restores the previous (“classic”) WordPress editor and the “Edit Post” screen. It makes it possible to use plugins that extend that screen, add old-style meta boxes, or otherwise depend on the previous editor.

Still the best
By davidgattol on January 23, 2023
This is still the best choice, i don't like different solutions like the built in one into Wordpress
Exceptional, a much needed plugin.

A real saver. The only hope against the new block builder.

Gutenberg isn´t useful if you write long articles with more text than fancy items like buttons, accordions, 3D thingies or anything else that is for business /ecommerce sites but blogs certainly don´t need.
This plugin saved me and keeps working with each Worpress update!
I learned to be terrified of most updates since I´m no developer, and if something gets broken with a given update I won´t able to fix it.
Please keep this great work beyond 2024!
Good plugin

I created a WordPress website for my salon business and added an editor plugin to make it more user-friendly. The WordPress community has also provided me with amazing support.
