What is the main difference between Block Editor and Classic Editor?
Hi Rachele
If you don’t want to write and publish from Site Content I recommend using the Block Editor directly.
As others have mentioned, the Classic Editor is being sunset and it has very limited formatting options.
It makes a lot more sense to create and edit content in blocks. 😎
Rock On 🤘

Perfect,
Frank.
I really appreciate your knowledge and expertise.
Have a great weekend.

Thanks, Rachele!
When I first started at WA I was really surprised at how primitive the Classic Editor was.
I changed to the Block Editor as soon as it became fully functional.
I’m not even sure if the Classic Editor plugin is still fully compatible with the latest version of WordPress.
Have a great weekend! 😎
Rock On! 🤘

I use Elementor instead of typing content directly to the new page. I began to use Elementor when the Classic Editor was still in use.
I found it much easier to acclimate to the block system of Elementor because all of the blocks are visible i the left hand column , when on the WP admin dashboard. Whereas, on Gutenberg and now the WP block editor, you don't have full access without clicking the drop down to see more.
I write my content on MWord, and paste the content into Elementor, thereby bypassing the actual page itself, save the title, and meta additions. Then edit with Elementor and publish.

Rudy,
You have a lot of nerve to comment.
You cannibalized my site. And guess what,
What goes around, comes around.
You are a disgrace to Wealthy Affiliate community.
I hope you don't destroy other sites like you
DESTROYED mine. You are in humane.
Either you obviously know nothing about computers, or you need stronger medication.
And I want my $200 back. It has cost me $600 just to get it up and running. You idiot.

Classic Editor was the choose years ago block editor is the newer version that gives so much more choices in its use.
Also Classic is not being supported anymore or updated.
Thanks, Andre
Good to know. I will bank this information.
I have learned something new today.

Block is the way fo go forward.
Classic support will stop at some point in the future.
Different types of editors from WordPress. The block editor in WordPress is a modern visual editor that allows users to create content using blocks. In contrast, the classic editor is a simpler, more traditional text editor with fewer formatting options.

Block editor is much easier to create the look and feel that someone wants without having to use code.
