Blocks / Guttemberg

  • Hello,

    I left my website to a company for manage somethings and they mess up putting a classic editor back and removing blocks /gutemberg.

    Now how I put it back or at least can I select which one I can use? I install guttenberg but looks like is missing something as still appears the classic editor.

    Any help please?

    It depends on whether you need to use the Gutenberg plugin for a specific reason.

    Since WordPress supports full site editing (FSE), you don’t need to install Gutenberg specifically if you just want to edit your pages and don’t require the latest features.

    Just make sure the Classic Editor plugin is deactivated (if it’s installed).

    A have a couple of questions:

    • Are you trying to edit a post, a page, or some templates?
    • Which kind of theme are you using (a block or a classic theme)?
    • Which WordPress version do you use?

    Hello,

    The lastest version of WordPress, updated last Friday.

    I use Flatsome theme

    I want to use some plugins which use blocks when editing posts and products.

    So I want to use editor like a new fresh wordpress installation, as I see more options than just classic editor.

    In this case what I have to do? Just uninstall classic editor and install Gutenberg or other plugin?

    You don’t need the Gutenberg plugin. The Block Editor has been built-in since WordPress 5, and the Gutenberg plugin is now an unstable testing ground for new Block Editor features.

    Would you please provide a screenshot of what you’re seeing? https://www.ads-software.com/support/forum-user-guide/block-editor/#adding-screenshots

    I use Flatsome theme

    I don’t have experience with this particular theme, but Flatsome doesn’t seem to be a block theme.

    WordPress can still be used to create and edit content in the post editor, even with non-block themes. The blocks you insert into the content area (such as paragraphs, images, galleries, etc.) will be processed and displayed according to the theme’s existing styling.

    However, advanced features like templates and full-site editing won’t be available if you use a non-block theme.

    So I want to use editor like a new fresh wordpress installation, as I see more options than just classic editor.

    Since a fresh WordPress installation uses a block theme, it makes sense that you cannot use all the features when using a presumably non-block theme like Flatsome.

    Block themes typically include a?theme.json?file in the root directory of the theme.?If your theme doesn’t have that file, it means it’s a non-block theme.
