But once you are in that view, it begins auto-scrolling all of the dashboard to the far left behind the left column. It&#8217;s like your mouse has been hijacked immediately, the scroll begins and shoves everything to the left, and you have no way to stop it and it won&#8217;t pull back. Obviously makes the site uneditable. It&#8217;s fine in Block editor but we never ever use Block editor and never will &#8211; need classic editor to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a huge site with over 1,000 posts so we don&#8217;t have time to redesign, so this is big deal :(.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are linking to a screenshot&#8230;https:\/\/butterfliesrising.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-952.png<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are going to revert out of 7.0 for now but we always keep our sites up to date, so that isn&#8217;t a permanent solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any help is so appreciated to get this fixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-18917065","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18917065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18917065\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18917068,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18917065\/revisions\/18917068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18917065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
