AHHH why are WordPress.com forcing us to go the the Block Editor on the 1st June 2020. Well, I am sure you know the reason why.
If you are feeling daunted by this, and nervous, do not fear the block editor is easy to use.
WordPress.com have thoughtfully provided a classic block with the block editor, which is effectively your beloved classic editor.
How to use the classic block
In this youtube video I show you how to use the classic block in the block editor, so that you can continue to create your wonderful blog post with an editor you are familiar with. Whilst, you secretly learning how to use the block editor!
If you can’t click the video below – click here to see the video. Enjoy.
I also create a youtube video demo-ing the basics of the block editor, which was my first youtube video ever. See below.
Click to watch. If the main link doesn’t work click here
I hope you found both these video’s useful.
I will be creating more demos / training videos on different aspects of the block editor.
Keep looking out for these. May be subscribe/follow me on my blog or youtube channel to ensure you don’t miss out. Also, let me know if there is anything you want me to specifically cover.

I was a little uncomfortable when it started few months back, but now I got hang off it and I think it’s much better than the previous format.
