  When creating a post or edit an existing one,Custom fields can not be added.
  Even if enable display for custom fields and reload it just refresh without listing the metabox /panel to add new custom field.
  Also in localhost installation for testing, the Custom fields overlap Gutenberg blocks(wordpress version 5.8).
  I cannot enter content into those blocks so I cannot complete my post using the new editor.

  And the Additional areas to the editor such as meta boxes from plugins(Yoast seo etc) are also overlapping the content.

  Based on your screenshots, it doesn’t appear that the site you’re working on is hosted here at WordPress.com but instead using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) and hosted elsewhere.

  Since this seems to be an issue with the block editor, please reach out to the WordPress community for guidance:

  I hope that helps!
