Hey everyone, so I've been having this weird problem where the cursor turns blue in WordPress and just won't let me make any corrections. Super annoying and kinda stuck. Anyone else ran into this? What did you do to fix it?

Sometimes it’s also related to your browser extensions. I use Chrome and one of my extensions was blocking some scripts. Try incognito mode and see if that helps.
I had this annoying blue cursor issue but switching to a different theme temporarily fixed it. Could be theme related too maybe?
For me, updating WordPress to the latest version fixed the problem. Keeping everything updated is key!
I had this too after a recent update. Clearing the browser cache and restarting the browser helped me out.
Yeah, I've seen this happen before. Usually, it’s some plugin conflict messing with the editor. Try disabling plugins one by one and see if it goes away.
