  How do I write in classic mode? Everything switched again and I can’t figure out where the admin button is

  You should be able to edit in classic mode by adding /wp-admin to end of your url.

  For example:
  https://mysite.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Hope this helps!

  Hi there,

  Your account has been switched to the unified navigation, which is being rolled out on WordPress.com. You can read about this here: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/unified-navigation/.

  If your account has been switched and you used to access the Classic Editor through WP Admin, you’ll need to turn on the Advanced Navigation in your Account Settings>Dashboard Appearance to access the Classic Editor. Here’s more about that:
  https://wordpress.com/support/account-settings/#dashboard-appearance.

  The Classic Editor is currently available, but in the long run, you’ll want to give the full Block Editor or the Classic Block a workout as the WordPress core development team do plan to phase this editor out in the future. The more you use it, the easier it will become.
  We also have a guide specifically for writers and bloggers that you can find here https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor-for-writers-bloggers/.

  I hope that helps!
