  I am having trouble editing a published post. The update button I used to click before is no longer visible. Has this been removed ?

  (I want to add my signature to some pics as I finally figured out how to do this !)

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

  You can always find your edit options within the WP Admin (http://wonderingrose.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) and clicking on posts. It will then list all the posts you have made. Select the one you wish to add.

  Some themes have an edit button listed below each post when you are logged in; however, not all themes have this which may explain why your update button has disappeared.

  Thanks for the response http://kristinavanhoose.com/

  I don’t think it is to do with the theme as I added signature to one pic yesterday – through the process you described. Update button was visible then and even previously. .

  I could not get that button today on any post …even though I go through the usual edit button.

  Am noticing that the status box does not have an update button it used to have … only a box on top left of screen with four options Publish Immediately, Draft, Pending Review, and Schedule.

  Had not noticed this box before ?? So wondered whether it was a technical glitch, a new feature or I have inadvertently changed something ?

  Wondered if I hit publish immediately – it will “update” a published post or re post it all over again as new !!!
