When Gutenberg is active, the plugin disables it (depending on your selected options) and replaces with the Classic Editor. Otherwise, if Gutenberg is not active, the plugin does nothing. So it's totally fine to install before Gutenberg is added to WP core, so it will be ready when the time comes.**What's the difference between Classic Editor plugin?**Classic Editor plugin enables you to disable Gutenberg across the board, and replace it with the Classic Editor. The Disable Gutenberg plugin does the exact same thing, in the exact same way, BUT it also provides more granular control over when and where Gutenberg is replaced with the Classic Editor.

Disable Gutenberg enables you to disable Gutenberg and replace it with the Classic Editor wherever you want.

Classic Editor plugin. So if you want to use Disable Gutenberg, deactivate the Classic Editor plugin (you do not have to remove it, just deactivate via the Plugins screen).**Classic Editor expires in 2022, what about Disable Gutenberg?**I can't make any promises, but I intend to develop with WordPress for the long-haul. Who knows what the future holds, but the plan is to keep Disable Gutenberg going for many years to come. Why? Because the original RTE/Visual Editor is awesome. I strongly feel it's one of the many reasons why WordPress has enjoyed its great success. I've been using the original/classic editor for over 10 years now and it's always been 100% smooth experience. I've tried Gutenberg, and yes it is much better now than in previous versions, but for me it's just not as comfortable or streamlined as the classic editor. So yeah, will do everything possible to keep Disable Gutenberg (and the Classic Editor) going well beyond 2022.**Why does Classic Editor plugin have way more users?**Because it is being promoted by the Gutenberg developers and the "official" plugin for replacing Gutenberg. That's fine, but understand that Disable Gutenberg functions the same way AND provides way more features and settings. FWIW, I use Disable Gutenberg on my sites Perishable Press, DigWP.com, Plugin Planet, and many others. 100% solid.**Template exclusions not working?**In order for template exclusions to work, the template must be registered with the page itself. The only way to do this is via the "Edit Page" screen, in the "Page Attributes" meta box. There you will find an option to set the page template. Remember to save your changes.After assigning some templates, they will be recognized by Disable Gutenberg. So to disable Gutenberg on any registered template, you can add them via the plugin setting, "Disable for Templates". Examples:*

If you visit the settings page, you will see that the "Complete Disable" option is enabled, and so is the "Disable Nag" option. This is all that is required to disable Gutenberg (and the nag) sitewide.Now, if you want to customize things and, say, only disable Gutenberg on specific post types, you can uncheck that first "Complete Disable" option. When you uncheck the box, more options will be displayed.

To do this, set the "Complete Disable" option to __enabled__. Then visit the "Whitelist" settings to specify which posts always should open in the Block Editor.**Important**Do not use Disable Gutenberg with other plugins (like the Classic Editor plugin) that also disable or replace Gutenberg.
