So difficult to use now

  • Unknown's avatar

    Couldn’t figure out how to create a post, used to be very simple. Now it keeps asking me to build a block, what the h is that? Paste some text, it becomes completely chaos.

    Not looking for help, just wanted to rant. This is crazy.

    I understand your frustration. The introduction of the block editor in WordPress can be a significant change for those accustomed to the classic editor. It does take some getting used to, and for some, it might feel overwhelming initially.

    The block editor in WordPress allows for more flexibility and creativity in structuring your posts, but it can indeed be confusing if you’re not familiar with it. Each paragraph, image, or element is treated as an individual block, and you can customize each block separately.

    However, I’d encourage you to give it a chance and explore its features. With time, you might find that the block editor offers advantages like better layout control and improved organization.

    If you ever decide to seek help or guidance, there are plenty of resources available, including tutorials, guides, and support forums. Many WordPress users have gone through similar frustrations and can share their experiences and tips.

    Remember, it’s okay to feel overwhelmed, and taking some time to rant and express your feelings can be therapeutic. In the end, what matters most is finding a method that works for you and makes the process of creating posts enjoyable again.

    If you change your mind and want help navigating the block editor, don’t hesitate to ask. We’re here to assist you whenever you need it. Happy blogging!
