How To Get The Classic WordPress Editor Back In One Click

How to get it back in one click, and then there are 7 minutes

I've had a free WordPress blog since 2007 and haven't blogged for the last 3 years much. I just came back and confused as hell with not being able to find my Classic Editor. What you recommend in the video does not work for me. I cannot access the Classic Editor. When I go to plugins it says I have to upgrade to a Business Account and pay $300 which is frigging crazy. I'm at a loss at what to do here.

The required business plan upgrade is $300 per year in order get the classic editor plugin - thanks Wordpress for thinking about those of us with you for ten years and hate the block editor.

thanks for the video,, this helps!

You are AMAZING! UGG THANK YOUUUUUUUU

I HATE this block editor!!

thank you very much...

None of this works anymore and yesterday my WordPress updated to this new block editor and it's dreadful. My spellchecker no longer works in WordPress either since it happened. I tried going back to the Classic Editor like you pointed out in this video and you cannot do it certainly not on the free version of WordPress. When I go to Admin and Plugins there is no longer an option to add new plugins. In the plugins section, I can see the Classic Editor but it will not let you install it and to get it back you have to pay them £240 a year which is a complete utter rip-off and a joke especially when they can just drop things on you like this out of the blue. Even when I click on my old saved drafts it does not bring the Classic Editor back.

Now I have to look for a replacement editor because Worpress now totally SUCKS! and I cannot even use it anymore.

Now we have to buy a Business Plan to add the plugin.

Having issues with updating the home page. I had been working on older version of WP and using classic style to update. The site I'm working on now is newer version and struggling to fix front page Home Main Content Area issue. Using Evet Star theme, for non-profit, top half is image plus some highlight content, bottom half we have About page an Featured Events in a two-column set-up. No matter what I do, these pages seem to be hard coded and cannot change the content, even though I changed the pages out. [siteorigin_widget class="Event_Star_About"][/siteorigin_widget] is in the about page, but I rewrote the entire page and added that to menu, taking former page off. Still, old content remains. Any thoughts??

[Worth noting: with the plug-in, my theme, twenty ten, also doesn't show block editor as an option for editing as Ammons mentioned.]

On a separate note, do you know anything about this message showing up on every page and dashboard view?

Can we (we as Im) get the Classic? I am new on Wordpress and I came from blog. And I must upgrade to ''Busniess plan'' or something..

You are such a life saver! I was getting so frustrated with the new upgrade. Thank you!

Holy crap, 5 minutes in before you tell us how to do what the title is, then your solution requires a plug-in, which you can not do with only a premium account. Give us a more universal answer without all the dribble in the beginning!

Plugin doesnt show block editor/ classic editor. Only in classic editor shows.

Great!
Thanks a lot!!!
