Problem with Gallery Column

Hello @t0t0r0555

I’m sorry, but the classic editor isn’t supported in Blocksy. Blocksy is a Gutenberg theme and using legacy technology such as the classic editor can lead to some unexpected results. The technology might be dropped at any time, so it isn’t feasible for us to implement all the necessary fixes for this old editor into Blocksy.

If you can post your website’s URL, I will be able to take a look at the front end and hopefully offer you a resolution, but by default, many things will not work.

Waiting on your reply ??
Thanks

Does that mean classic editor users are discouraged to use this theme?
Will the theme work well with Elementor although Elementor also has classic text editor?
My website is running on local so I don’t have any links to give to you…

Hello @t0t0r0555

No, that’s not the case. You see, the classic editor will slowly be phased out against the new Gutenberg one. Even Elementor is experimenting with bringing some of its blocks to Gutenberg. It is truly the future of WordPress and there’s no going back.

Many of the top themes, you’ll find, have also dropped support for the classic editor, or they haven’t supported it from the start anyway. Sure, some things will work correctly, but some will not. That’s why I’ve asked you for the link, to see if we can do a hot fix for it.

In regards to Blocksy supporting Elementor, yes it does and you should have absolutely no issues with it.

Hope this clears things up a bit ??

Thanks

Sad.. but I understand. Thanks for the reply.

Hello @t0t0r0555

What is sad about this, exactly?

Please get back to us if you want to resume the diagnosis and make this work how it’s supposed to, we’ll be more than happy to help you out.

Yes, and I appreciate your help.

I’m just sad about this because I’m too used to the old WordPress

Hey @t0t0r0555

I understand, as I am reluctant to change in general too, but in some cases change is great, to let the product evolve into something much better.

I don’t know if you’ve given Gutenberg a proper try, but it has changed a lot from its beginning days. There are great plugins that extend the Gutenberg editor, such as Stackable.

I really think you should give it a try and see for yourself ?? But of course, if you want, we can help you work around the styling differences with the classic editor as well. Your call.

Thanks.
