  The ‘Switch to Classic Editor’ option is not showing up according to the Help Page instructions.

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

  The “switch to classic editor” instructions applies to a WordPress.com hosted site such as https://2020mhon.wordpress.com/
  If you’re actually talking about a site hosted elsewhere using the WordPress.org software then you’ll need to install the classic editor plugin.

  Thanks much! I think that must be it. I have two sites — the one you mentioned, and another one — but both were created in WordPress. I have created Blog posts on the other one but the editor has been updated or upgraded or something and I’m having trouble making it do what I was able to do before. Was hoping to revert to Classic but apparently that does not apply. I really don’t understand the difference between the two.

  There are big differences. See:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Aha! Thank you. That’s the problem. I have a site in both .com and .org
