• I want to switch to using gutenberg. I had the “classic editor” plugin installed which let you select whether you used gutenberg or classic for a new post. Except the gutenberg never worked for some reason. I have removed classic editor, reinstalled workpress and updated every plugin. Also cleared the cache. And yet… when I write a new post I still see a classic editor and not gutenberg option. Please help. Thank you!

  • There could be a plugin or current theme that has code to disable Gutenberg for a specific post type or on the overall website.

    You can switch to the Twenty Twenty-Two theme to check if the problem is from the theme. if Switching themes doesn’t solve the issue then deactivate plugins one by one and find which plugin is causing the problem.

    You can also look at your child’s theme if you have any custom code that can disable Gutenberg.

    Hey Vijay, through process of elimination it turned out I forgot about added the following line to my child theme. Fixed the issue! Thanks for your support.

    add_filter(‘use_block_editor_for_post’, ‘__return_false’);

    Great news.
