Classic view for new posts
-
how do i go back to use the classic view for writing a post? Not long ago I had the option of using the new format or going back to classic format. Out of the blue, I am forced to this new format I don’t like because it requires more clicking. How do i go back?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Please read this from Staff dated March 18th, 2015The Classic Editor will continue to exist in wp-admin. We know some users prefer to use this editor, so we want you to have access to it, instead of phasing it out with the new version of the Dashboard. However, a link to the Classic Editor will not return to the New Editor.
