  When I click the posts tab in dashboard, there is an edit option for each post, but clicking on it just takes me to the text of the post. There is no option to change the date. Google search tells me it would be there.

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hi, @bloggerman97 .

  You can change the post’s date by going to the post Settings icon at the top right corner of your post window. This will open a sidebar, then look for a Publish date. There you can then change the post’s date. I attach a GIF image here for your reference. https://imgur.com/a/qbj1bT9

  I hope this solves your problem.

  Hi how do I get to that screen? When I try to edit my post there is no side bar or nav bar and this is the only thing I see: https://imgur.com/a/S8Drq53

  It seems like the Distraction Free Mode is active. In that mode all the editor menus are hidden. You can inactivate that mode by placing your mouse cursor on the top of the editor, this will show up the top tool bar. Then click the 3 dots menu > uncheck Distraction Free. This will bring back the editor toolbar and sidebars. Here’s the GIF image for your reference. https://imgur.com/a/CNH1VOW

  Hope this helps.
