Quick Take: Advanced Editor Tools - Your Gutenberg Safety Net

By Avir Media (avirmedia) on June 9, 2025

Hey! So I only see one plugin here - Advanced Editor Tools (formerly TinyMCE Advanced). It's pretty solid if you're not ready to fully embrace Gutenberg yet. The "Classic Paragraph" block is clever - lets you use the old familiar editor within the new one. Great for folks transitioning or with older plugins that don't play nice with blocks. The table tools and formatting options are handy too. Worth a try if you miss the classic editor!

Helpful Tools

Time saver!

Needed a way to remove some steps clearing formatting. Specifically, span tags in posts. This plugin does exactly what I need it to. Great addition to my Gutenburg toolbar.

Thank you!

The Best Classic Editor Plugin!

By Josh Journey (ljosh) on December 16, 2024

Lots of great options for customizing the classic editor and bringing in features I didn't have before Gutenberg in TinyMCE. Works on the frontend too which is a great treat. It makes for a very enjoyable WP experience.

Very handy plugin, indeed!

I use the Classic Editor along with the Advanced Editor Tools plugin, which allows me to eliminate redundant editing options in the editor.

Very handy plugin, indeed!

Keep on keepin' on! ...

Gives me more control than block editor

By aaronlkh on September 18, 2024

While the simplicity of block editor is appealing, it just doesn't give me the level of text formatting control that I'm used to from a word processor. This plug in brings back some word processor formatting functions without disabling Gutenberg. A little buggy at times but can't write without it.

Very useless plugin

Very useless plugin, updating posts becomes very complicated when used
