What?
Remove the
gutenberg_initialize_editor
function, defined inlib/experimental/editor-settings.php
.Why?
I came across this function the other day. A quick
grep
revealed that it doesn't seem to be called anywhere.git bisect
revealed that the last known use of that function was inlib/experimental/navigation-page.php
, which was removed in #47055, alongside a lot of other code. It was probably by oversight thatgutenberg_initialize_editor
was left behind.How?
Delete
Testing Instructions
Look for any invocations of
gutenberg_initialize_editor
, or maybe justinitialize_editor
if you're paranoid (like myself) that maybe we do some obscure prefix mangling somewhere in the build process.Also, give the editor some smoke testing (both Post Editor and Site Editor).
