When discussing WordPress (the best blogging platform<\/a>) with bloggers who have already spent a few years writing, creating WordPress posts might sound trivial. The truth is that you can publish your first post<\/a> very quickly. But if you want to do it the right way, there are things you should explore from the start. Let us help you with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we move on, it\u2019s important to point out that WordPress replaced their classic editor with a brand-new editor named Block editor\/Gutenberg Editor in the WordPress 5.0 update released on December 6, 2018. This new editor helps to add media-rich posts and pages to WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gutenberg is currently the default and only editor. However, you can still install and use the Classic Editor plugin if you prefer the classic look: click here<\/a> to find out how to continue using the previous (\u201cclassic\u201d) WordPress editor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This way you can still use the old version with the new Gutenberg editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before discussing adding a new post using the classic and the new default editor, let\u2019s first explain the main differences between the new Block (Gutenberg) and the Classic WordPress Editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gutenberg editor uses \u201cBlocks\u201d to create visually appealing posts and pages by adding useful blocks, widgets, and much more. Blocks are the content elements that you add to the content editor to create this visually appealing content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Each item, either a paragraph, image, video, or table that you wish to add to your post or page is a block. A WordPress user can easily drag and drop blocks to a post or page without any difficulty. To use this drag and drop functionality, you\u2019ll need to hover your mouse over the six dots between the up and down arrows.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat is Gutenberg editor?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
