Emm hello?

Any ETA? Thanks in advance…

@nanettethorell

The blocks are invasive when the pop-up cells cover up my work.

You could try moving the toolbar to the top (Options (three dots top right) -> Top toolbar).

@imanamateur

Many people don’t bother complaining–they have downloaded the primary add-on to bring back the “old editor” more than four million times. Let that sink in: MORE THAN FOUR MILLION TIMES.

Nah, you are generalizing things a bit too far; let me give you an example, one that I have repeated over and over again to all of you that like to pop that 4M figure: I love Gutenberg and I also have the Classic Editor plugin installed; why would I do that? well, I have very long old posts that I don’t want to convert to Gutenberg (yeah I’m lazy). For everything new, I use Gutenberg exclusively.

So there goes your theory that every install of Classic Editor counts as one in the “I don’t like Gutenberg” tally.

But it’s still not OK to me to install a plugin to put a word or two in red… CSS is not a better option and is hard to maintain.

Well, that’s not the only thing that plugin does (I’m thinking of TinyMCE Advanced) so maybe you should try it.

As for using color in words, I’m going to be honest with you: in my 12 years using WordPress I have never colored individual words. If anything, I’ve colored entire paragraphs, and always in red. And I did that just a few times. I understand that someone might need that feature, and I believe that for those cases, plugins come to the rescue.

@atx

Why so much hassle to find the correct buttons? Where is the underline button? how do we even change the colors of the text? Yes it was better to have one fixed editor bar at the top, where we could easily find all the buttons at one place.

You can still underline by selecting and pressing Ctrl + U. To color individual words or sentences you can do it by CSS or installing a plugin.

What’s the point of creating a title and then clicking on H3, H4 and so on? This is confusing…

You can use Markdown to speed up your heading creation, write ## for H2, ## for H3 and so on until H6. So, to create an H2 write “## This is a level 2 heading” (without quotes), press enter and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

The editor could be useful when editing from small screens where there is not much space, but the experience is worse on big screen, we have to scroll much more the page because of the padding around the blocks and the final result is slightly different to what it looks like in the editor…

Otto is right on this one, that’s your theme.

Maybe it’s not ready for *all* uses, but it’s perfectly fine for most, I don’t see why it isn’t ready for “any production use”. I’ve been using it for 3-10K word posts without a single problem, it’s pretty stable now. I honestly can’t go back to the old editor, can’t stand it anymore.

Thank you very much for the detailed response. My experience with GB has been positive so far (even writing long content), but I’m not going to taint your review. Just wanted to understand what gave you trouble. Thanks again.

Good to hear you got it working. ??

You’re not changing all the old URL’s in the database, something like this.

But first: do you have the old setup still? if yes, you can install Duplicator or All in one WP Migration (my favorite choice) to do your migration, it is so much easier than do it all manually.

@brainstormteam

Thanks, that is just perfect!

192.168.0.7 is your computer’s local network IP, localhost is an alias for 127.0.0.1, your computer’s loopback IP. You should be using “localhost/wordpress” instead of “192.168.0.7/wordpress”. If you want to use one computer to host the site (your local running server) and use it from another computer in the network, you have to edit your hosts file in that computer to point to the one hosting the local server.

In your remote PC you edit your hosts file and add a line like this:

192.168.0.7 mysuperdupersite.local

With this now go to your remote’s browser and navigate to “mysuperdupersite.local”, it should work fine.

I suggest reading CloudFlare documentation about this; first, learn about the SSL modes offered by CloudFlare, to check you are using the correct mode:

https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200170416-Understanding-Cloudflare-SSL-options

I guess you must be using Flexible SSL.

Then check this:

Hope this helps.

Hi:

Made this video for the author of Editorial Calendar, maybe it will be of some help with this issue:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OZSpLPXRCWISH8jircjLuiLM7zpMVe2G/view

I really don’t know where the issue is. It’s a bare WP 5.x with EC and DG. It doesn’t work on local install, doesn’t work at my live blog either. And still can’t figure out why. ??

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much.
