Cannot return to Classic Editor
-
Please show how to return to Classic Editor, as I do NOT HAVE TIME to relearn this new JetPack that got installed wihtout my chossing.
When asking in forums, the solution to go to Plugins and select the Classic Editor does not work without obtaining a Business Plan, costing money.
This is and WAS a free site, for posting my blog. I am out of solutions.

Hi there, it’s no longer possible to use the Classic Editor in the MySite dashboard as WordPress.com has retired it there in favor of the Block editor that has been in use here for over a year and a half. You can read more about that in this blog post > https://wordpress.com/blog/2020/08/13/the-classic-editing-experience-is-moving-not-leaving/
If you want to use the Classic Editor, you should be able to:
1. Use the Classic Block in the MySite dashboard Editor, which is similar to the previous Classic Editor, as described here: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/classic-block/2. Or navigate to your WPcom site’s WP Admin dashboard (yoursite.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) and use the Classic Editor there
https://wordpress.com/support/editors/#classic-editorIf you don’t see those options, please post back and let us know.
However, the Block Editor is easier to use than most people think and has been greatly improved over the last couple of years. If your sites have already been switched to the Block Editor at MySite, you can try it out in a draft post and there’s a tutorial to get you started at https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/
Again, post back here if you have any other questions.
