What is ClassicPress?
ClassicPress is a free, open-source content management system forked from WordPress that leaves out the Gutenberg block editor and keeps the classic editing experience. It is run by The ClassicPress Initiative, a US nonprofit, and describes itself as lightweight and stable. Its repository is licensed under GPL-2.0.

Licence: GPL-2.0 · Built with: PHP + MySQL/MariaDB · Official site: www.classicpress.net
Common uses
- Blogs that prefer the classic editor
- Business websites needing a familiar CMS
- Migrating from WordPress without blocks
- Small content sites with plugins
ClassicPress requirements
- PHP: PHP 7.4 or higher minimum; 8.3 or 8.4 recommended
- Database: MySQL 5.0+ minimum; MySQL 5.7+ or MariaDB 10.3+ recommended
- Apache 2.4 (minimum); Apache with mod_rewrite, Nginx or LiteSpeed recommended
- HTTPS certificate recommended
