Blocks making me miserable

    Is there a way to turn off the blocks in the Parabola Theme. They are making my life miserable. They are such a battle all the time. Especially on one certain page. I don’t want to have to redo my website and change to a new theme. Hopefully, there is a way to remove the blocks.

    Parabola does not implement any kind of blocks, so I’m not sure what you are referring to (you provided no URL and no examples).

    “Blocks” in the WordPress universe has become to normally refer to the new block editor’s structural elements.

    I think “new block editor’s structural elements” and “blocks” are basically the same thing. we are just using different words to describe it. They ARE in the parabola theme now when I use it. I assume they are there from a WP update.

    I cannot see a way to add a picture but added a link to WP website. What I see is a box with editing icons on the top of the box/block. Unfortunately, I cannot type in the box/block. I can add graphics but cannot resize them or place them anywhere except where they were inserted. They cuse me so much work I am thinking of going back to HTML.

    Blocks are provided by WordPress and its new block editor. They are not added nor controlled by the theme.

    WordPress.org has documentation on how to use the new visual editor:

    You also have the option to revert to the classic visual editor by installing a plugin (you can even mix or switch between the two for different content items):
