  In Admin, pages or posts, there is no option that shows Classic Editor. Is there another way to select the classic editor? Thanks

  Hi,

  You should be able to use the classic editor this way.

  If you did not know already the classic editor is being retired.

  The Classic Editing Experience is Moving, Not Leaving

  The classic block is similar to the classic editor. You can read about that here.

  Thanks for those infos, ryrhino00! I bit the bullet and have gone for the blocks! I’ve muddled around, not clear about all the steps, working on new and previous posts. But gradually I’ll get there. Online stuff hasn’t helped much, so I just keep pressing buttons until what I want happens. Argh. I’ve managed to do two new posts, revise one old one. That one was the hardest.

  Thanks for all the work you do!
