I'm used to the old WordPress
-
I’m sorry, I just can’t figure out the new wordpress layout. I want my (new) blog to be in the old style control panel. How can I get that?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
We have two user interfaces now and two editors. I use only the classic editor, and not the new so-called “improved” editor.
The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL
You cannot deactivate the new Beep Beep Boop editor but you do not have to use it. For locating the ways and means of accessing the legacy or classic pages for creating posts, editing posts, and for viewing stats see here > Navigating the Classic WordPress.COM interface http://onecoolsite.wordpress.com/2015/04/05/navigating-the-classic-wordpress-com-interface/
On the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New*http://REPLACE_WITH_ ACTUAL _NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php
To create posts in the classic editor for you that link is:
http://translateot.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php
On the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > All Posts one can hover over any post title and click the Edit link. and proceed with editing.*http://REPLACE_WITH_ ACTUAL _NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php
To edit posts in the classic editor go to
http://translateot.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php
Hope this helps and best wishes with your blog.

Thanks, Time Thief, that was really helpful and now I can get into the sidebars and widgets.
