How to enable Classic Editor in WordPress? And disable Gutenberg Editor?

For your WordPress website, you can always switch to Classic Editor from Gutenberg Editor.

Gutenberg Editor is a block-like editor – You can drag and drop to build new pages, and edit existing pages.

But when you cannot get use to Gutenberg Editor, you may want to disable Gutenberg, and switch back to the Classic Editor in WordPress. But how?

All you have to do is to install and activate the Classic Editor plugin, and you won’t have to physically disable Gutenberg Editor.

Go to Plugins, Add New at the left side menu.

Enter Classic Editor in the new plugin search box.

When the Classic Editor plugin shows up in the search results, click Install Now.

Click Activate to enable the Classic Editor plugin.

You can now use the Classic Editor to add a new post or page, or edit existing posts or pages.
