  My “new post” page has very few functions. My friends wordpress blog (no upgrades) has many more abilities. I cannot even underline – or center my type. I’ve tried many different themes and that is not the solution. Is there a way to “update” my account or something to give me more functions????

  Thank you.

  Hi there,

  It sounds like you don’t have Kitchen Sink mode enabled.

  This guide will help you to enable it:

  Chris – I really appreciate your help! However, I don’t have a kitchen sink icon – nor do I even have a row 1??? Would it be best if I sent you a screen shot of what my post page looks like?

  You have the “Disable the visual editor when writing” option checked on your Users → Personal Settings page. Uncheck that, Save, and then try editing again. You should see the Visual editor tab option after that.
