A couple of years ago, WordPress added a new editor for posts and pages, called the Block Editor.
We still have the Classic Editor enabled, and you can switch between them. (Some features only work in one or the other.)
Caution: While you can sometimes switch between editors on an existing post or page, it often doesn’t work well (for example, causing formatting problems or making it hard or impossible to edit existing content). It’s best to make the switch before you begin work on a post.
