Solved Edit: Directly to frontend editor

    Hi,

    I wonder if this hasn't been asked a hundred times alread, but I could not find an answer:

    When selecting a page to edit in the backend, it always goes to the backend editor first, which already takes a while to load, then I (or a client) have to click the button "Build On The Front End" before we can actually start editing. This is super tedious. Is there a way to have Divi go directly to the frontend editor?
    If pages had at least a link "Edit on frontend" instead of only "Edit", that would help enormously.

    Thank you!

    I found a solution/workaround: When Gutenberg is enabled, then pages in the list will actually have the option "Edit with Divi" - and that leads to the front page editor. Just with the classic editor enabled there is no such link.

    I was confused by this also and saw the same solution on Reddit but my Classic Editor was NOT enabled and I wasn't seeing the "Edit with Divi" button in the Pages list. Solved by turning Classic Editor ON, SAVE change, look at Pages list, back to Divi Settings, turn classic editor OFF, SAVE change. Back to Pages list, there is the "Edit with Divi" button!

    For new pages / posts, the following post describes how to make the front-end visual builder the default:

    Once enabled (in Divi Booster or PHP code) the clicking to add a new page / post will take you straight into the visual builder, skipping the backend editor / Gutenberg, etc.
