   My bad, I should have expanded a little further than I did so there was no confusion.
   As far as minor updates, I don’t allow them as even minor updates can have unintended
   consequences and can cause / have caused headaches for users in the past. I was
   definitely not advocating for “not upgrading,” rather, performing the update /
   testing process manually in a sandbox environment before production environments
   to avoid any “potential issues.”
 * [@cutu234](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cutu234/) I apologize, I thought
   you were singing the praises as well 😉

 * [@juliet-sallette](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juliet-sallette/) The 
   WP people don’t make money on WP, yet graciously gave us a phenomenal CMS so 
   that 99.9999999% of the population didn’t have to learn to be developers/designers
   and allowed developer/designers a less painful way to make $$. Please be grateful
   to them for what they have done to help online experiences. Yes, forcing Gutenburg
   was not a good decision, but as you have found out, there are plugins so that
   you are not impacted. Whether updating the WP Core or individual plugins, I highly
   advise you disable the core autoupdate [ just ad this **->** define( ‘WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE’,
   false ); **<-** ] in the wp-config file and run your updates manually after thoroughly
   testing any updates in a sandbox environment before rolling out into production,
   especially since you are running 12 sites.

 * [@cutu234](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cutu234/) I am not really sure
   who is praising this misfire. Certainly not the user base: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/gutenberg/reviews/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/gutenberg/reviews/).
   As a developer that works with nearly every major free & premium CMS, builds 
   plugins, themes, and middleware, Gutenberg is a miss, and not a close miss by
   any means. Thankfully, plugins leave a way to have the classic editor instead.
 * Always grateful to the [@wordpress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpress/)
   team for all they do.

 * I figured it out. Having the lightbox plugin enabled was conflicting with the
   Next Gen Plugin. I disabled the Lightbox and everything works perfect.
