About Classic Editor
Classic Editor addresses the editing experience inside WordPress. Its source names the classic editor, the old Edit Post screen, TinyMCE and meta boxes; these are the distinguishing facts behind this listing. It is a different purchasing decision from choosing a public-facing page builder or theme. For an established publishing team, inventory the editor extensions and content types used in everyday work. Try opening, editing and saving representative existing posts before adopting a different editing workflow. The source describes support for plugins extending the classic screen, but BuyPHP has not tested your particular combination of extensions.
