The Block Editor (Gutenberg)
Introduced in WordPress 5.0, the Block Editor is a completely redesigned editing experience that treats all content as individual blocks. Each block can be inserted, rearranged, and styled individually, making it more flexible than the old Classic Editor.
Default Editor
Now the default editor for creating new Pages and Posts
Individual Blocks
Content is organized into blocks that can be customized independently
Enhanced Flexibility
More flexible than the Classic Editor with drag-and-drop functionality
The Classic Editor plugin is available for those who prefer the old interface. Recommended to use Block Editor unless compatibility issues arise with themes or plugins.
