Awesome editor

  • I’ve tried this editor, for sure it will never replace the one we actually have in WordPress core. If it replace the standard tinymce one, I hope there will be alternatives, in core or as plugins. Maybe it will be good enough for basic users, or it may be improved in future, but for moment, my own experience with it is not a great experience.

    This was my comment for v1.0, but I tested the 2.4.0+ and there’s a great experience! Really great editor, I rather like this one than classic one, even if it’s still a ‘work in progress’.

    Hope that more and more plugins will come to add functions to it, and that migrating from classic editor will not break my pages/posts appearance.

    Gutenberg is my default editor since WordPress 5.0 release. Love it, I don’t wanna go back to the classic editor!

    First, thanks for taking time to give feedback as all feedback matters. As Gutenberg takes shape, it does so because of feedback.

    You mention about basic users, to some extent that is a good way to see this. Why can’t those with advanced skills turn on things? However, that’s not a great experience for those either right? So, we can’t have that alone. We sort of that that right now and a lot of users are very lost.

    Gutenberg is aimed at trying to be a better experience for more users. This means that some users of course won’t be covered – the key is to not give them a worse experience than they have now.

    As the project evolves this will happen. Thanks for being an early adopter and testing the plugin right now.

    Hey! I have to explain some things: basic users means users that don’t need advanced functions from a text editor: they want to write, to have bold, headers (h1, h2…), italic, medias, and that’s all they need. Happy people ??

    My own use is a bit more advanced: I often use text editor to go further than the tinymce editor itself can, to add nofollow rel to links for example, or to add a custom class to a block. I was not able to do this with Gutenberg as far as I tried it. I use some plugins with metaboxes, will I have those metaboxes with Gutenberg? And so on.

    Maybe, if there are dedicated plugins as we actually have with tinymce, I’ll give another try to this editor, as it seems interesting and powerful – even if it needs to be improved.
