So thankful for this plugin, as I’m not a huge fan of the modern, updated and latest Wordpress editor. It’s just not simple enough; too complex. The classic editor is the greatest of all times and this plugin is so simple and works so wonderfully well. I tried a few other classic editor plugins, but this one has seemed to work the best, even with the updates.

Have been using the most popular downloaded version of the classic editor but was not 100% working for me
I tried this and it’s as simple as installing
and nothing else to touch and will instantly show classic editor
thankyou very much for this lite weight version
