This snippet completely disables the Gutenberg block editor in WordPress and enables the Classic Editor for all post types using the use_block_editor_for_post_type filter. Useful for developers or websites that prefer the traditional WordPress editing experience.

// Disable Gutenberg editor
add_filter("use_block_editor_for_post_type", "sj_disable_gutenberg_editor");
function sj_disable_gutenberg_editor()
{
	return false;
}
