Yeah, right, it took WordPress 15 years to be what it is now, and you think something better is goint to show up just like that…WordPress is no longer a piece of software, it’s an ecosystem that has took many, many years to build. It’s not going to be replaced that easily. If you want a different blogging/cms platform you have many choices, but with the versatility and diversity of the WordPress ecosystem, none of them holds a candle.

And honestly, you can disable Gutenberg, or have a dual Gutenberg/Classic Editor environment just as easy – Disable Gutenberg plugin is great at that.

Gutenberg is not a builder, TinyMCE never was WYSIWYG.

And isn’t enough for you to disable Gutenberg and use the old editor? there are like a hundred different ways to do so now. Disable Gutenberg plugin comes to mind as the best right now for this task.

Hi:

Thanks for answering. Heres a little vid showing what I’m trying to do:

https://monosnap.com/file/A3iSFRfURVQNwcw1LUgSo7vhEJXEQd

As you can see, there are no Chrome extensions, no other activated plugins except BD. Chrome is 71.0.3578.80. Theme is Twenty Seventeen. WP 4.9.8 running on local setup, by way of Local by Flywheel.

Any ideas?

P.S. in the vid the mouse cursor doesn’t change shape, but it does change to a four-direction arrow head.

Thank you very much.

Ok…that’s why I opened the ticket, it doesn’t show *any* of my Elementor-built pages.

3 days, no answer. And Finder was THE feature of that release. Oh well.

Sin tener más datos es un poco difícil saber que pasa, pero parece que tienes un problema de contenido mixto, es decir, contenido cargado por http y no por https. Quizás por ahí tengas un problema. Debo a?adir que no es el único: no está optimizada la página y parece que no es del todo responsiva.

Try adding the following line in your wp-config.php file. Add it just before ‘That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging’ line wp-config.php:

define('WP_ALLOW_REPAIR', true);

Once you have done that, you can see the settings by visiting this page: https://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/maint/repair.php

In case it works, remove the line you added to wp-config.php, because this process doesn’t require a login.

If you have access to phpMyAdmin from your hosting panel, you can also repair the tables manually.

Try pasting this code in wp-config.php file just before the line that says ‘That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging.’:

define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’ );

Save the file and try again with your site.

Just one thing, usability *has* improved a lot from 2.0.0 to the latest version. I’m not saying is top-notch, but it has certainly improved.

@jobst

Yep, you’re right about Gutenberg wanting to be a builder (it’ll be the second phase)…it may be true in the future, but right now it isn’t; it needs *several* features before it can be considered a full-fledged builder.

As a side note, the Finder feature is part of version 2.3.x and Not of Elementor Pro; to be clear, I’m not asking support about Elementor Pro, I mention it in this post because it may be useful to the plugin author(s) to know that I’m running Pro also, because it may affect it.

WordPress is GPL 2; quoting directly from the original text, sorry for the caps:

Anyway, you should calm down…Gutenberg is not mandatory (not now and neither when 5.0 is released) and you can still use Classic Editor to continue working.

@nwwoman

Sorry, but to be a developer is to embrace change. That’s a fact.

Those are builders, Gutenberg is a content editor. Not the same.
