    Hi Patrice!

    I’m sorry you’re having trouble. We did update quite a few links to point to our new editor. However, please keep in mind that the old editor is still available. You just need to access it by clicking “Edit” underneath a post here:

    https://patriceclarkson.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php

    We’re collecting constructive feedback on a main thread here:

    https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/new-post-page-layout-version-changed-overnight-how-to-restore-older-version?replies=1

    If you would like, could you add your main sticking points to that thread? We’ll do our best to address them all!

    Please let me know if the editor works correctly from the wp-admin link above!

    Guess you’re going to have to explain how to add my ‘main sticking points’ to the thread at… https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/new-post-page-layout-version-changed-overnight-how-to-restore-older-version?replies=1. All I can see is for staff to respond or write.

    Patrice.

    p{margin: 0;padding: 0;}Thanks Jeremey. I did go today and posted a writing using the old format. Then another using the ‘New’ and scheduled it for tomorrow… never indicated that it will happen, so…

    I will go and give me feedback, there are some things I’d like to say :))

    Just wanted to ‘Thank You’ for addressing and assisting me in my little dilemma.

    Sincerely,

    Patrice.

    Problems encountered with ‘New Post’ page

    • The ‘beep beep bop’ goes on forever as if loading Flash or something. Not all of us have access to high speed and why it is loading Flash or something similar to it, do we need it to write copy and upload an image?

    • Found out today how to open the 2nd of modules – Whew!

    • ‘Most Used Tags’ doesn’t exist any more. Only ‘Existing Tags’ in alphabetical order.

    • No suggestions come up from ‘Existing Tags’ when typing new tags. Drag. Nothing to help to save from typing more.

    • Wrote today’s blog using the ‘Old Version’ page and then wrote another for tomorrow, using the ‘New Version’ page. Using the ‘Publish – Schedule’ for 8:30 tomorrow. Gave me no indication it received or will post. Guess I’ll have to wait and see.

    • Yesterday, the ‘Preview’ button stopped working and when it did work, instead of changing the already open ‘Preview’ page, it would open another one. Today worked fine. So I’m thinking you corrected?

    • Yesterday also, the ‘Publish’ button at the bottom wouldn’t work. Worked today – GREAT!!!

    That’s it. Thanks,
    Patrice.

    Hey Patrice!

    I really appreciate your feedback, and I apologize for posting the wrong thread link. The main thread is here:

    https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/beep-beep-boop-screen-is-a-joke-is-this-a-glitch?replies=229

    I’ll address each of your concerns here as well. Please keep all future comments to the thread above. We’re combing that thread for sticking points regularly:

    The ‘beep beep bop’ goes on forever as if loading Flash or something. Not all of us have access to high speed and why it is loading Flash or something similar to it, do we need it to write copy and upload an image?

    Quite a few individuals have expressed loading time issues. Could you let me know if you experience the same issue across all browsers or just in your main browser?

    ‘Most Used Tags’ doesn’t exist any more. Only ‘Existing Tags’ in alphabetical order.

    You’re correct; the “Most Used Tags” function isn’t in the new editor. We’re looking at some improvements that will make the new editor much faster when sifting through a ton of tags. Two main thoughts here:

    1. A field that autocompletes similar to the old editor
    2. Using the keyboard to zip straight to the start of a specific letter and then choosing from the list.

    Any thoughts on what you might prefer?

    No suggestions come up from ‘Existing Tags’ when typing new tags. Drag. Nothing to help to save from typing more.

    Addressed above.

    Using the ‘Publish – Schedule’ for 8:30 tomorrow. Gave me no indication it received or will post. Guess I’ll have to wait and see.

    Notifications and wording are two other areas we’re working on. We’re also experiencing some trouble with scheduled posts. I don’t see a scheduled post currently. Could you reschedule it from your Dashboard here?

    Yesterday, the ‘Preview’ button stopped working and when it did work, instead of changing the already open ‘Preview’ page, it would open another one. Today worked fine. So I’m thinking you corrected?

    We’re constantly making improvements now that bugs are being reported so hopefully!

    Yesterday also, the ‘Publish’ button at the bottom wouldn’t work. Worked today – GREAT!!!

    Woot! That’s awesome.

    Again, thanks for all of your feedback Patrice!
