I need to Get Back the Old WordPress Editor

  • I have updated my [ redundant link removed ] blog to WordPress 5.2 version and I can’t stop hating the Block editor. I want to get back the classic editor and I am afraid to use any plugin for this. Please bring out some suggestions.

    Prefer to stick with the familiar Classic Editor? No problem! The Classic Editor plugin restores the previous WordPress editor and the Edit Post screen. It lets you keep using plugins that extend it, add old-style meta boxes, or otherwise depend on the previous editor. To install, visit your plugins page and click the “Install Now” button next to “Classic Editor”. After the plugin finishes installing, click “Activate”. That’s it!

    Just install and activate the Classic Editor plug in. That should get it fixed.

    I know installing the Classic Editor will fix my problem. Thanks for your suggestion but why another plugin for this? There is a big number of users who have installed ‘Classic Editor plugin’ and they all hate Block editor. Why can’t there be an option to choose any one of the editor in the new updates.
