[Resolved] Classic Editor plugin causing issues with custom fields

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

I am working on a site that has a custom theme with the Classic Editor plugin active.

I have created a page that uses the block editor by using a code snippet to enable it.

I am adding a view to that page using Toolset Blocks but the custom fields I have created are not available to me when adding a Single Field block. If I disable the Classic Editor plugin all is well but I can't do that because the rest of the theme relies on it.

Is there are setting I'm missing or something else you can suggest.

Solution:
One possible solution would be:

- remove the code snippet
- go to Generals -> Writing
- in the "Allow users to switch editors" option, select 'yes' and save the page

Hey there,

Thanks for your contact!

Could you please share with us the code snippet that you're using in order to enable the Block editor? Moreover, is this code only intended for enabling Gutenberg? If it is, then one possible solution would be:

- remove the code snippet
- go to Generals -> Writing
- in the "Allow users to switch editors" option, select 'yes' and save the page

Then check if the issue persists. Please let us know if this could be an option, or if you have already tried that and it does not work for you.

Looking forward to your reply. Thank you.

Regards,
Mateus.
