# Elementor & WP5 Gutenberg?

 * I’ve been getting a lot of emails and alerts about the new WordPress version 
   5.0 Gutenberg. It looks like this is a major upgrade that is not going to be 
   optional. The one real challenge about WordPress is updates suddenly become untested
   or incompatible with the plugins you are using on your website. As I understand
   it Elementor 2 is coming out.
    Question: How are Elementor/2 and Gutenberg going
   to get along?
 * This could cause a substantial amount of work for people who maintain multiple
   websites.
    Any input/discussion?

 * Hi
 * Same questioning here but just got this below mail which looks as an help for
   us about this topic
 * Hi
 * The only thing surer than death and taxes is that Gutenberg is coming, with WordPress
   5.0. And soon. (Nope, no firm date announced yet).
 * Are you ready?
 * Pffft! It doesn’t matter.
 * Here’s how to disable it:

 * With a combination of the above tip and using Elementor, you won’t have to worry
   about Gutenberg at all. Well that is… unless you want to. 🙂
 * Aaaaaaand relax.
 * Have a great day!

 * I got this email too.After investigating, the disable Gutenberg will only work
   during the initial trial period. After it’s approved, everything will upgrade.
   I did find where you can switch back to classic mode but I wouldn’t expect that
   to last long.
