[Resolved] Edit Post with classical and block editor

[Sonja]

Hello,

I have begun using Block Editor and GenerateBlocks on some Posts.

If I create a post using block editor and GenerateBlocks, is it a problem, if edit this post later with the classic editor?

Because I have set my wordpress, to choose between classic and block editor. And I will prevent killing a post by using the wrong editor accidentally.

Hi there,

You cannot use a classic editor to edit content from a block editor.

Hi Leo,

in my WordPress Backend, i can choose for each post, with which editor i open it.

So i can open a post with classic editor, which i have created with block editor and GPBlocks.

I want to know if it can destroy the formating of this post, if i open it with classic editor.

I’ve not tried this myself – it’s not very common to switch from block to classic editor.

I would assume all you will see is the code that generates the block when you switch to the classic editor.

The best way to test is to try it yourself and see if it works for whatever reason you need to switch it for.
