How to Disable Gutenberg in WordPress?

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I disable Gutenberg without installing multiple plugins?

Yes. Nexter Extension includes a dedicated Disable Gutenberg module, so you don’t need a separate Classic Editor or cleanup plugin.

Will disabling Gutenberg break my existing content?

No. Existing posts and pages remain intact. You’re only changing which editor loads when editing content.

Can I disable Gutenberg only for posts or pages?

Yes. You can disable Gutenberg for posts, pages, or across the entire site based on how you manage content.

Does disabling Gutenberg improve site speed?

It can. Removing unused block editor CSS reduces extra frontend assets, which helps keep pages lean.

Is this suitable for agencies managing multiple sites?

Yes. It saves setup time, reduces plugin count, and keeps editing consistent across client sites.

Why doesn’t WordPress let me fully disable Gutenberg by default?

WordPress promotes Gutenberg as the default editor, but many users still prefer Classic Editor or page builders. This feature restores that control cleanly.
