I hate the new editor
-
Just after a minute starting a new post, I got this message: ‘Sorry, you are not allowed to edit this post.’ How can I bring back the old classic and stable editor?

@lilllipillli Hi there,
Here’s how to access the Classic editor:
https://wordpress.com/support/classic-editor-guide/#how-to-access-the-classic-editorFor some further reading, you can also find FAQ on its deprecation here:
https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-com-classic-editor-deprecation-faqs/By the way, what is the URL of your website or what is the name of your account on the WordPress.com platform you need assistance with?
Hope this helps!

Hi there,
Could you please confirm the address of the site you’re working on so we can best assist you?
It is no longer possible to set the classic editor as default on WordPress.com.

When introducing a completely new system, it would be polite to explain how it works, what the changes are… We lack all the information needed.

hello @soniverzum
Before the unified navigation was introduced, or just around the time it was to be implemented they announced it here https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/unified-navigation/ and called on to users who were experiencing difficulties to add to the thread their queries and concerns. If you require more information on this, hop on to the thread as well, you will definitely get staff responses on the matter.

Hi @lilllipillli @anastas10s has given you the information on how to access the Classic Editor for now.
The error you mentioned is one that Staff believed had been resolved, so I’ll also flag your thread for their attention.
Meantime you can try what was previously suggested which is to log out of WordPress.com and clear your cache and cookies. More on that procedure here https://wordpress.com/support/clearing-your-sites-cache/
Post back here if you have more questions or need more help on either issue.

@lilllipillli, please let us know if clearing the cache and cookies helps.
This issue was already fixed, but we’ve seen a few reports lately so something might be going on again. -
@lilllipillli – following up again. Did clearing cache help at all with this?
