  Hi,

  I have been using WordPress in 2013 and haven’t used it since. I just wanted to set up a new homepage, but the interface seems to have changed completely. I cannot access the Dashboard at all, I can only add new pages and posts. I can also not use the http://bontocseaviewguesthouse/wp-admin in the task bar – when I try there is an error message that this page does not exist. Any help very appreciated, thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi, are you able to use bontocseaviewguesthouse.wordpress.com/wp-admin ? You’re also welcome to use the new interface: to do that you’d just log into WordPress.com and click My Sites to find the settings.

  Hi, thanks for your response. no I cannot use the wp-admin link, however, I just accessed the Dashboard by chance when I clicked on “edit icon” on the top of the tools panel. I am sure there must be a better way to access it, but that will do for now. Thank you.

  Hi, just to be clear, you posted one link and I posted a different one. This one should work:

  https://bontocseaviewguesthouse.wordpress.com/wp-admin

  This one will not:

  http://bontocseaviewguesthouse/wp-admin

  When you click on the first link, are you able to access your admin area?
