Legacy Editor Deprecation & Introduction of Client Seats

Hi everyone 👋

We’re sharing an important update about the legacy Editor deprecation and how collaboration will work moving forward in Webflow.

In December 2024, we announced plans to deprecate the legacy Editor. Today, we’ve published full details on key dates to be aware of, migration details, and the resources available to help you prepare.

Key things to know: 

  • The legacy Editor will no longer be available starting August 4, 2026, giving you time to prepare before this change takes place.

  • Starting May 4, 2026, existing legacy Editor users will automatically be given access to a free client seat or free limited seat, depending on your Workspace plan.

  • As of today, client seats are available on Workspace plans for freelancers and agencies.

Client seats and limited seats provide access to 3 roles: Marketer, Content editor, and Reviewer, so teams and clients have more flexibility on how to collaborate, while unlocking more power than the legacy Editor offered.

We know the legacy Editor has supported many teams and workflows over the years, and we’re committed to making this transition as smooth and transparent as possible. You’ll find migration guides, FAQs, and videos tailored to different customer types in the resources below:
