Disable Gutenberg

February 27, 2021

Two years ago, WordPress introduced Gutenberg block editor together with the release of WordPress version 5.0. Gutenberg essentially became the default editor starting with WordPress version 5.0. While many people love the Gutenberg editor, some people hate it. If you’re one of the many people who hate the Gutenberg editor, you can simply disable it by installing a plugin called Disable Gutenberg. This plugin will revert back to the classic editor.

Once installed, you should be able to see the Classic editor.

After working with Gutenberg for so long, I forgot the speed and agility of the classic editor. It’s much faster.

Change Default Editor

July 28, 2020

Ubuntu and Linux Mint use nano as their default editor. You’ll see it if you try to edit crontab or visudo. Now, there’s nothing wrong with nano, but I prefer using vim instead. Here’s how to change the default editor.

sudo update-alternatives --config editor

sudo update-alternatives --config editor

You’ll be prompted to change the default editor.

There are 4 choices for the alternative editor (providing /usr/bin/editor).
 
  Selection    Path                Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /bin/nano            40        auto mode
  1            /bin/ed             -100       manual mode
  2            /bin/nano            40        manual mode
* 3            /usr/bin/vim.basic   30        manual mode
  4            /usr/bin/vim.tiny    15        manual mode
 
Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:
