  It’s old news to many, but today was the first day I was forced onto the new editor when I tried to edit a post. I finally found the link to the old editor, which I will be using as long as I can still get to it. Meanwhile, thanks for nothing, WP. I don’t want or like the new editor and you’ve successfully ruined my “happy” New Year’s day.

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

  My apologies, WP. Whatever it was that sent me to the new editor is no longer active.

  @windwhistle,

  I had same pre notion about New Editor before I purposely switched to it and tried my hands on it. Surprisingly I actually liked it and found it really convenient and easy to use, so many settings are handy and with few clicks I was able to get my post the way I want.

  Below document helped me change my view about new editor,

  Happy New Year :)

  After 10 years and more than 3,000 posts, I’m quite comfortable with the old editor(s). Learning a whole new system now just takes time away from actually posting. And it just occurred to me, what happens to my current CSS modifications if I suddenly switch editors? And would the new system support all my older posts? Not saying I won’t ever look into the new editor, but I’m going to have to be in the right mood, wanting to learn, not post.
