 * Automatically added when my site updated to 5.0.
 * Does not work.
 * Cannot edit or save posts.
 * Also, doesn’t remember to leave the HTML editor open. Non-adjustable width is
   a real pain the neck when editing HTML.
 * How the heck did this ever get approved?

 * In a case where you cannot edit or save posts, first check to make sure your 
   site’s REST API is working properly. You can add `wp-json` to the end of your
   site URL and check to make sure an error is not displayed. Can you give that 
   a try?
 * Also, thank you for the specific feedback about the HTML editor sticky setting
   as well as the content width. I can use that feedback.

 * Yes, of course– JSON and the API are working fine.
 * I’ve read hundreds of forum posts from other people having the same problems,
   checked the API, checked the .htaccess, checked the php.ini, and on and on.
 * I am grateful that the classic editor still exists as a plugin.

 * That’s good to confirm since you didn’t mention it earlier. The next best thing
   to do will be to open a help request in the forums because it sounds to me like
   something may be off in a configuration or a plugin in your case but more information
   is needed in order to help you with your case. Thanks for posting with extra 
   details and using the support channel if that is a route you choose.
