In lieu of a Christmas blog post celebrating the “magic of the holidays,” I’m offering something practical for all you blogging types out there. I know our numbers continue to contract. I’ll be back after Christmas with fresh content.

Occasionally, WordPress requires that you download updates. Since 2012 when I launched this site, I’ve been faithfully executing these “upgrades.” I fear that one day, I’ll download one and the site will simply disappear. So far, so good, though.

The other day, however, when I updated to WordPress 5.01, I ended up with the WP Block Editor as my editing tool for posting. May I simply be blunt? It sucked!! If that’s happened, or if it happens at some point, I hope this video is as helpful to you as it was to me.

By following these simple instructions, I now have the WP Classic Editor set as my default. It’s what I’ve been using for the past six years and it’s way more functional than the latest editor, which again, sucks!

Merry blogging!
