I need to revert one page back to normal editor instead of PageBuilder format.
How can I do without losing content?

    Hey!

    It looks like the only way to “free” a post from SiteBuilder is to manually delete the ‘panels_data’ post_meta field in the DB!!
    This is not fair… too tight. I don’t like.

    Hi Fabio

    I’ll look at adding a way of making it easier to revert back to using the standard editor. You’re right, this shouldn’t be difficult.

    Hi Greg,

    the trick is just a button that closes the editor and removes that field from post-meta!!

    The way I'm thinking at the moment – when the user clicks "Switch To
    Editor", it'll ask them if they want to permanently switch back to the
    standard editor.

    Yes, maybe that’s the best option. There are no other reasons to switch to the Text Editor, unless you want to revert the page.

    Very true.

    Greg,
    I noticed that you need first to leave the editor page and only then delete the post_meta ‘panels_data’, otherwise it will be re-written once the post is updated.

    This shouldn't be a problem once we've implemented the solution I have in
    mind :)
