The Anonymous Widower

I Have Just Been WordPressed

My method of using WordPress is to use the Classic editor because, that was how I started and many of the original posts were created with it.

I also do some actions with galleries, which now the program seems to have banned.

Rule one of writing software is never to go back on your original design and change things that they habitually do.

Some big software manufacturers do it all the time and I’m sure it does them harm.

As an example, who remembers the company; Wordstar, but loads of people remember and use Control-C, Control-V, Control-X, Control-Z etc.

The solution is to get the design right first time.

WordPress are driving me nuts, by my not being able to edit my post ; The Ultimate Recycled Electric Local Train.

I particularly want to get the gallery in the post into order. If I try to move the last picture into position zero, I can do it and it even stays there when I update the gallery. But if I go back to do another move, the picture is back to the old place.

That looks like a Grade A Bug to me! Fix It!
