  when I log in to my WordPress I can’t see the normal menu/login

  it seems like I have a different version of WordPress to everyone else.

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

  With your brand new site you will see the My Sites/Calypso menu which is now the normal/default menu. Perhaps you had a WordPress.com site or a site using the WordPress.org software in the past when the wp-admin menu was the default? You should be able to do everything you need to do with your current menu.

  Hi Rebkahcoles,

  The default interface of WordPress.com is the new Calypso which is blue/grey. If you want to use the classic Dashboard (black menus) you can append /wp-admin/ to your blog name to reach there, like this: http://rebekahcoles.wordpress.com/wp-admin

  As themagicrobot mentioned, you should be able to do everything from Calypso itself, unless you really want to use the .org type Dashboard.

  Bests,
