  Hi,

  I am writing to know if there is a specific reason why the WP admin bar (top) does not have the menu items displayed. For example, “New” and “Edit” are missing.

  I suspected that my former theme had to do something with that, but the issue remains after changing to another theme. It is a free WordPress.com plan that I am currently using.

  Theme I am using now: Twenty-Twenty One
  Plugins: None
  No changes to theme or functions.php or CSS.

  Any help or understanding will be welcome, and what can I do to bring the menu items back.

  Many thanks.

  EDIT: I found the “New” link, it is “Write” to the far-right, in the updated version, but no “Edit” option, still.

  Hello there,

  The admin bar described above is what’s present on self-hosted WordPress, rather than WordPress.com. There’s more on the differences here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  It’s possible to have this WP Admin bar, but the site would need to be on the business plan in order to enable that.

  Hey,

  Thanks for your response and information.

  I do have another site that is on a business plan. How do I bring back the menu items of that Admin Bar? Any help is much appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello there,

  That can be enabled on request via: https://wordpress.com/help/contact for sites on the business plan.
