not a fan of the new block widget thing tbh. this plugin just brings back the normal drag & drop style. my older theme plugins work fine again now. wish WP kept this by default cz it’s way easier.

I only installed this cz the new widget editor was slowing me down. It does what I needed, no extra mess. Still, it feels kinda basic and not something I’d call perfect.
