  How do we get back to classic mode permanently?

  The new BEE BOP site just isn’t as good and doesn’t have the same features that we use on a daily basis.

  Does anyone know how to get back to classic mode?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  At the top of the new editor page when creating a post you should see a link to use the Classic view instead. Click that link. Then, if you have cookies enabled on your browser your preference will be saved unless or until your clear your cookies, and it will take you to the classic editor automatically every time you create a new post via the drop-down menu in the black admin bar or edit a post via the edit button on the blog itself.

  If you are editing a post then the link to return to the classic editor is in the sidebar.

  Thank you, we’ll be sure to give that a try, however having searched the website pages all day we’re yet to see a link to switch…but we’ll try again :)

  That link no longer exists, and I really HATE the new format! Text will not wrap around photos, Most of my Tags have vanished. PLEASE bring back the Classic format!

  Hi there,

  Rachel has addressed this here:

  She mentioned:

  I just confirmed with our team that there aren’t plans to bring that “edit in classic mode” link back to the newer editor. Given that, I’d definitely recommend bookmarking the classic editor in your browser so you can quickly open it to write new posts there.

  If you have any additional feedback, please post it there. I will close this thread.
