  Is “Copy a Post” available in the new view? I don’t see it available in the “Screen Options” as described in the help.

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

  No that featured is only available if you use the classic editor.

  To use the classic editor to create posts like I do, go to Dashboard > Posts > Add New
  Here is the model so you can see the format
  http://INSERT_NAME_OF_YOUR_BLOG_HERE/wp-admin/post-new.php

  Here is the link to the page on your blog
  http://accountiblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php

  Note that you can bookmark that link.

  To use the classic editor when you edit posts like I do, use the Posts -> All Posts menu, hover over the post title and click the Edit link.

  Here’s the list of workarounds all in one place:

  Thank you! My cookies must have just expired because I kept switching to classic view previously and now that link is gone! It really is frustrating that WordPress doesn’t either keep the link or at least describe how to get back to that in their support pages.
