  • Gone but Not Forgotten - EditorsKit

    Munir and his predecessor have maintained EditorsKit for years. I have been using it for more than 2 years. I miss it, however, I understand their lives have moved on and time no longer permits them to continue to invest in supporting a heart project that I doubt make more than a few cups of coffee. I want it back to, and I guess no one else has stepped up. Maybe it would be better to just turn it off. I hate to see the haters 1 star a project they never invested a dime in. This was one of the first block editors and many of my sites use it and frankly there is no replacement. I am disappointed it is gone but it was great while it lasted.

  • Not working

    I installed the plugin on the latest version of wordpress and I don't see any updated editor options other than 'responsive' in the sidebar. Not sure if this plugin is still supported...

  • Justify no there

    I installed the plugin from wordpress.org only to get the justify option. It was not there. I then downloaded from the developer's site and installed from there. No difference.
