  Hello!
  I am a bit lost, I just have access to my website but I can never switch to the dashboard. Also when I log in I am directly transferred to the website and not to the dashboard. There is no button where it usually is up in the left to change in between these two. Can u help me!

  Add the following to your site address

  wp-admin/

  So https://readytoexplodeblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  https://wodaiprzemysl.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  @julialita You add wp-admin/ in your browser address bar, following your site URL.

  So the address for your site’s Dashboard for the site now linked to your username, that would be
  https://chronologyofwords.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  You do not want that link to be attached to your user profile, which will appear when you leave comments, because only you can reach that address when logged in to WordPress.com

  Hope that is clearer now. Let me know if you have any question.

  @julialita, what you see in the left menu under “My Site” are newer style admin pages, for example:
  https://wordpress.com/posts/chronologyofwords.wordpress.com

  What specifically are you looking to do and maybe we can point you to the exact right place for what you need?
