    Where do I even start?? This split screen editor that requires you to pull up the meta boxes is ridiculous! It used to be scrollable. Ever tried to edit with this on a phone? Doesnt work at all. I have seen several snippets but none of those have worked. I have yet to find a plugin to fix this. Why does WP keep making changes like this? I cannot imagine anyone would actually request something like this.

    Hi @kingdomx, I understand your frustration. Based on my findings, if I am correct, the issue with the Split Screen Editor was resolved in this support thread: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/new-post-editor-split-layout-with-6-8/

    The issue was fixed with the code snippet below:

    // disable the splitted layout in gutenberg since 6.8
    // from Primary_Eggplant8818 on reddit
    function wp68_admin_editor_fix_styles() {
        echo '<style>
            .editor-visual-editor {
                overflow: visible;
            }

            .interface-navigable-region.components-resizable-box__container.edit-post-meta-boxes-main.is-resizable {
                max-height: none !important;
                height: auto !important;
            }
        </style>';
    }
    add_action('admin_head', 'wp68_admin_editor_fix_styles');

    Let me know if this works for you.

    Cheers,

    Jim
