Thanks for clarifying, Erik. That was my fault. I was absolutely sure I've upgraded PostgreSQL to v.14 but actually I've had v.13 running. After upgrading to v.14 the CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER construction works as it was stated in the documentation.
Thanks again.

Works for me on 14.9 and 15.4: BEGIN; CREATE TABLE mytbl (f1 int); CREATE FUNCTION mytrigger() RETURNS trigger LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $$ BEGIN RETURN null; END $$; CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER mytrig BEFORE INSERT ON mytbl EXECUTE FUNCTION mytrigger(); COMMIT; CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER was added in 14. Did you test on an older version? -- Erik
