## Description

**Works well with the [Classic Editor](https://fr.wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/)
plugin, [Advanced Custom Fields](https://fr.wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/)(
Free & Pro) and is also compatible with the Gutenberg’s “Classic” bloc.**

In WordPress 4.7, the core developper team decided to make various changes in the
editor (TinyMce WYSIWYG), including removing the **underline and justify buttons**
and rearranging some of the toolbar buttons.
 If you don’t want to change the way
you edit your content and/or don’t want to confuse your customers with a new contribution
interface, this very lightweight plugin will set the editor style back to its previous
state (like in WordPress 4.6 and above versions).

**You may change the Editor style from the Writing option page.**

3 options are available for the Editor style:

 * Without underline & justify buttons
 * Default – Re-add underline & justify buttons
 * Re-add justify only

Please note, the previous option “Re-add underline & justify + rearrange” has been
deprecated in 0.2 (sept. 2018) as it causes conflicts with the new Gutenberg editor.
This option automatically switches to “Re-add underline & justify buttons” from 
now on.

It doesn't work in 6.9 with Gutenberg editor. The settings don't affect anything.

I have installed it in two WordPress multisites and activated it on both. My WP 
versions are the latest stable ones : 6.7.2. I use "Disable Gutenberg", as I am 
still unable to write a pages or a post using this method. (Nooo way !!!)And this
Justify and Underline feature for the editor works just fine! Many thanks!

I can't fathom the idiocy and broken logic that led to wordpress removing these 
buttons in the first place. The justifications posted by Andrew Ozz were nonsensical
at best and showed his indifference to the average user and designers. Thank you
for making this plugin. Please don't use it to hack my sites.
