  I would like to use the dashboard, but it does not show up.

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

  Hi there,

  Are you referring to the old wp-admin dashboard? If yes, you can access it at http://YOURSITE.wordpress.com/wp-admin

  Hope this helps :)

  Thank you! This allowed me to access it.
  However, it does not show up as a clickable icon under the settings icon.
  On my other wordpress account, I can scroll down and under settings, there is a WP Admin Icon I can click on that takes me to the dashboard.
  Do you know why the clickable WP Admin icon is missing?

  I believe it is removed for new accounts but older accounts can still see it :)

  After some searching yesterday I found it in the menu as the very last option at the bottom. The very place an admin would yearn to have it. ;-)
