  Hi there,

  You can use this link to start a new post on your site in the classic editor:

  https://hearttohearthcookery.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php

  To get there from https://wordpress.com/ you can click on “My Sites” in the upper left, and then click on “WP Admin” in the sidebar to open the classic WP Admin dashboard. You can view your existing posts under Posts > All Posts and start a new post under Posts > Add New.

  Also, if you can share specific things that don’t work well for you in the new editor, I’d be happy to share that feedback with our team!

  I’m one of many dissatisfied WordPress.com bloggers who hate the lack of functionality in the new editor. (Bring back the options to switch to Classic mode, please!)

  A blogger named Dennis shared this post about forcing a redirect to the classic editor. I’m going to install the force redirect to classic per these instructions and see how that goes:

  Hi there,

  There are no plans to bring back that link back to classic mode in the new post editor, but if you can share specifics about what you’re unhappy with in the new editor I’d be happy to pass those along to our team. :)
