This guide explains how to use the Classic Editor. If you are using the default WordPress editor, also known as the block editor, please see this guide.

⚠️

While the Classic Editor is still available, it is not recommended to use. You can use the block editor to create media-rich, mobile responsive, and unique websites that the modern internet user expects to see. For help transitioning to the block editor, please see this guide.

About the Classic Editor

You can use the classic editor to create, edit, and format your content in a view similar to that of a word processor.

💡

To ensure you’re not looking at the HTML view of the post or page, select the Visual tab in the top right corner of the editor area, as depicted below.

📌

The content in the classic editor is styled by the CSS (a type of code that gives HTML styling such as color, spacing, width, etc) of the theme that you choose. What you see in the editor may not exactly match the live site. Please use the Preview button to check how the post or page looks on the live site.

Explanation of the Classic Editor Buttons

There are two rows of editing buttons in the classic editor. You can find out what each button does by hovering over it with your mouse. A small tooltip will appear describing the icon and its purpose.

First Row of Editing Buttons

When initially opened, the classic editor will display a single row of icons:

1. Add Media
2. – various formatting styles defined by your theme
3. Bold
4. Italic
5. Unordered list (bullet points):
   • Item 1
   • Item 2
6. Ordered list
   1. Item 1
   2. Item 2
7. Blockquote (a way of styling quoted text; each theme will style this differently.)
12. Insert More tag
13. Toolbar Toggle (enables the of editing icons)
14. Add Contact Form

Second Row of Editing Buttons

To display the second row of icons, select the toolbar toggle icon on the right of the first row (button number 13 above). This will open a second toolbar that looks like this:

1. Strikethrough
2. Horizontal line
3. – changes the text color
7. – moves text further left
8. – moves text further right
9. Undo – undoes your last action
10. Redo – redoes your last action
11. Help – displays .

Alignment

Both text and images can be aligned using the appropriate icons:

Left

Right

Center

Styles

The style drop-down menu allows you to change the formatting of any selected text. This includes various headings and other pre-defined styles built into your theme.

Note that further style modification requires Custom CSS (and appropriate knowledge of CSS).

Text Color

To change text color you must first highlight a section of text:

Clicking on the down arrow next to the text color button will display a color selector. While the color selector is open, the arrow will point up. You can click on it to close the selector without selecting a color:

Selecting a color will apply that color to the selected text and make it the default color for the color button.

Clicking on the text color button itself will apply the last default color.

Pasting Text

If you copy and paste text from somewhere else, you may discover that it does not always appear exactly as you would expect. This is because pasting from another program (such as an email or word processor) can bring with it some unwanted formatting.

If you use the Paste as text button, a special cleanup process will run to remove any special formatting and HTML tags that may otherwise change your text’s formatting.

Below is how the Toolbar looks in “Plain Text off” mode. Note that there’s no box around it:

Below is how the Toolbar looks in “Plain Text on” mode. Notice the icon now has a box around it, and the button is shaded black:

Clear Formatting

The clear formatting button removes all formatting (bold, italic, colors, etc) from a highlighted section of text. First select your text:

When the button is clicked, all the formatting will be removed:

Special Characters

You can insert special characters into your post or page. Position your cursor to where you want to insert a character and click on the insert custom character button. A popup window will appear:

Click any character and it will be inserted at your cursor position.

Outdent / Indent

The indent button will move text in by one level, and the outdent button will take away one level.

Spacing

Hitting the Enter (Return) key will end the paragraph you are writing and start a new one. If you want to start a new line without creating a new paragraph, hold the Shift key while hitting Enter.

Keyboard Shortcuts

The classic editor has several keyboard shortcuts, or hotkeys, built in.

To see a list of all of the available shortcuts, click the toolbar toggle to show the second row of icons, and then click the Keyboard Shortcuts (question mark) icon at the end of the second row.

A window will pop up showing a list of keyboard shortcuts available in the editor.

To use the default shortcuts, press Command + key on Mac or Control + key on Windows:

For additional shortcuts, press Control + Option + key on Mac or Control + Alt + key on Windows:
