The WordPress Classic Editor is a plugin for the WordPress platform that restores the original, classic WordPress editor. It was introduced in version 5.0 of WordPress as an option for users who preferred the traditional editor over the new Gutenberg editor, which introduced a new block-based content creation system.
The Classic Editor plugin is designed to provide users with the familiar editing experience of previous WordPress versions, with a single box for typing content and a toolbar for formatting text. This plugin can be installed and activated on any WordPress site to replace the Gutenberg editor with the Classic Editor.
The Classic Editor plugin does not have the same level of functionality as the Gutenberg editor, which is designed to enable more advanced page building and layout options. However, for users who prefer a more streamlined, basic editing experience, the Classic Editor is a popular option that remains supported by WordPress.
