  This was introduced and now I cannot post or edit on WP at all. I’m having to email my posts. Trying to go back to the old editor has been futile. DISAPPOINTED!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Click on My Sites> add new page>over top right-hand side click on 3 verticle dots > You see an option on switch to classic editor

  Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
  Thanks!

  Hi there,

  Can you please provide more details on what you mean by not being able to post at all? Is the editor not loading for you, or is something else not working?

  You should also be able to go back to the classic editor by going to https://my2ndheartbeat.wordpress.com/wp-admin/ and clicking the Deactivate Gutenberg option in the banner appearing there, but if something is not working in the block editor we’d appreciate any details you can give us about it so we can fix it.

  The Gutenburg editor loads and I am trying to figure out how to post, change text colors, etc. But since this became an option a couple of days ago, I cannot use the old editor in any way. If I go to “Add” post or try to add a post in ANY manner, I am met with a basically blank screen with 2 people and a message that says “We’re sorry, but an unexpected error has occurred”. I have about 20 posts pre written and I can post them, but I cannot edit them from their current state. My work around the past few days is to post via email or via the WordPress mobile app which is OK but it has obvious limitations (text color, adding key words, etc). I think if I can figure out the Gutenberg I’ll be OK ……. but it sure is frustrating right now. I’ve been posting daily for years with no real issues and suddenly my blog is fighting me.

  If it helps, I am using a MacBook, Google Chrome, and my blog is a “free” site using a Twenty-Ten theme.

  Go to your adm area and use the classic editor there:

  https://my2ndheartbeat.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  The new editor is not for us…

  Hi there,

  I have made an adjustment on our end and I have restored the old editor back to your site. Can you please let me know if you’re still having trouble loading your posts in the editor?
