In the Layouts / Add block / 'type something area', I am getting the description help block being left over after the add row are hidden with the display:none.
Any clue why?
It sounds like a CSS/JS bug in the Layouts UI: when the "Add block" row is hidden with display:none, its help/description element isn’t being hidden together.
🔧 Things to try:
Inspect with browser dev tools → see which class/ID the leftover help block has.
Check if the hiding JS only applies to the row, not its child nodes.
It sounds like a small UI rendering or CSS conflict. The leftover description help block likely isn’t being hidden when the “Add block” row is set to display:none. Check if the help block has its own visibility or display rule that isn’t tied to the parent container — it may need a specific CSS selector or JS event to hide it. You can inspect the element in your browser’s dev tools to confirm which class remains visible, then either manually apply display:none to that element or update the JS toggle function to include the help block.
This behaviour in CKEditor 5 is almost always triggered by a JavaScript failure during editor initialization. When CKEditor cannot fully load, it silently breaks core features like saving...

It is an admin theme that's based upon the bootstrap 3. Maybe it's missing a piece to act as an admin theme?

Add CSS like:
.add-block-row[style*="display:none"] .help { display: none !important; }If reproducible, this may be a Backdrop core/Layout module issue — worth filing in BackdropCMS issue queue.
