 * Recently when editing in WordPress, I have experienced the following three problems:
 * 1) When editing I can only edit in Visual mode, and can no longer switch over
   to Text mode.
 * 2) I cannot change the publishing date on my blog posts.
 * 3) I cannot create a new hyperlink that will open into a new window, but I can
   create a new, regular hyperlink that will not open into a new window. When trying
   to access the options to get the hyperlink to open into a new window, I can’t
   get the hyperlink options box to popup and open up for me to do this.
 * I’m running on Windows 10, WordPress version 5.5.2, and am utilizing the Firefox
   browser version 82.0.2.
 * Please let me know what you believe the problem may be.
 * Thanks!
 * Jim

 * This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins,
   and switch to the default Twenty Twenty theme. If the problem goes away, enable
   them one by one to identify the source of the problem.
 * If you can install plugins, install [Health Check](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/).
   On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and
   change the theme for you, while you’re still logged in, **without affecting normal
   visitors to your site**.

 * Thanks for your help! It turns out that it was the Classic Editor plugin that
   I was still utilizing, and once we disabled that, everything works fine now with
   the current WordPress editor.
