What's going wrong
Many site owners, including beginners, developers, and agencies, report that the block editor is hard to understand. Options are hidden in scattered menus, blocks are hard to place, and simple jobs like adding an image to a column or changing text color take far too long. Clients who are handed a site often cannot make edits on their own and need training. Owners compare it unfavorably with page builders and the classic editor. The recurring theme is that people can complete their tasks only after long searches, which leaves room for a clearer guide.
