    Hi, I tried to access site editor but in the ‘quick links’ I can’t find ‘Edit site’.
    Even when I tried to find it in ‘Appearances’, I still can’t find it.

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there,

    I have visited your WordPress.com site and can confirm it uses an older “classic” theme that was launched before we had a site editor. As a result it does not have this option.

    To explain, in order to use the Site Editor option you need to be using a “Block Theme” on your site. Basically it’s a theme that is created entirely in blocks and is able to use the block tools in the site editor.

    You can pick from any of the themes here, and they will all offer the Site Editor option: https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/full-site-editing

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
