 * I have a form that I built before MailPoet changed the form editor to WP’s Gutenberg
   block editor. After that update, I can no longer edit half of the items inside
   of my form – they do not register as editable blocks, and I cannot access any
   of the custom HTML/CSS that I used previously. Will I have to rebuild this entire
   form from scratch in order to be in accordance with the new block editor?
 * I am using MailPoet 3, Version 3.45.0 and WordPress 5.3.2 running the Twenty 
   Sixteen theme.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcannot-edit-old-form%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@sarahlhayes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sarahlhayes/),
 * You should be able to edit your form created with the old editor when using the
   new one.
 * Please refer to this article [Create a Form with our New Form Editor](https://kb.mailpoet.com/article/297-create-a-form-with-our-new-editor)
 * Let us know what is the exact issue you’re experiencing or contact us via email
   so we can investigate it further.

 * Thank you. I’ve ended up recreating my old form in the new editor, so that fixed
   it in a roundabout way.
