[Resolved] Classic Editor & Elements issue

[Rui]

Hi friends!

I seems I found an issue between the Classic Editor (https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/) and GP.

I installed the plugin (I’m using WordPress 5.0) and after that I could no longer edit what I typed in Elements (posts and pages are ok). But just disabling the plugin and everything returns to normal.

Could it be another reason?

There seems to be a bug with the Classic Editor plugin and custom post types:

Does it happen when you try to open a media library item as well?

If so, go to “Settings > Writing” and change the “Allow users to switch editors” to “no”.

Hi Tom.

I can open a media library item.

But, indeed, if I change the “Allow users to switch editors” to “no” everything returns as before. Before “WordPress 5.0” – I would say – since I have no access to the new visual editor anymore!

But for now it´s Ok… I’m used with TinyMCE (that seems to have no function with this new WP version!).

Thanks!

Switching that option shouldn’t take aware the old TinyMCE editor.

Here’s what I see:

Classic Editor 1.1 was just released which should fix this 🙂

[Rui]

Yes, Tom! This new version ends the problem.
Everything works fine now. Thank you!

Great to hear! 🙂
