[Resolved] Editor setting in Post Type

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

Problem: What is the "Editor" setting in the custom post type editor screen?

Solution: This setting allows you to choose between the new Block editor ("Gutenberg" before WP 5) or the classic editor when editing or creating posts.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please refer to the screenshot, I guess there is a new feature of the Post Type, what is the Editor? I can't read it from https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/create-a-custom-post-type/

Best regards,

Kelvin.

Block editor is the new WP 5 post editor screen that used to be called "Gutenberg". It's more like a page builder than a code editor. Classic builder is what you're used to seeing before WP 5. Per post means you can choose Block Editor or Classic builder per post.
