Phot edits NOT showing in post!
-
I am really getting sick and tired of this stupid crap! Whomever is making these stupid changes to the platform is screwing up royally! I tried to post a photo that I added a reflection and it is NOT showing up in my posts! It is bad enough that we CANNOT use spell chack because the morons didn’t add it to the new posting system so if we need spell check we have to post in the old system, I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! And I went premium! This is just frustrating! What the hell do I do now! Thank you for ruining a good platform!

What is a reflection?
Are you referring to an image caption?There are known issues with images in the new editor https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/editor-feedback?replies=730
If you use the classic editor there aren’t any issues. 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
To create posts in the classic editor for you that link ishttp://lexingtonphoto.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. -
This isn’t related to your issue but Black Letterhead is an old retired theme and themes are retired because they do not support all wordpress.com features. The recommendation is to switch themes and that’s easy to do.
Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do some work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme and have done any CSS editing.
Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.
The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.
Note that every theme will have a detailed theme description page with set up instructions and a live demo site page that you can consult. Here’s an example:
https://theme.wordpress.com/snaps
http://snapsdemo.wordpress.com/Why don’t you try previewing one of these themes? https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/two-columns+black/?sort=free

Thanks for the help! I was adament about posting so I had to open a new browser three times then my photos I worked so hard to create showed up with their reflections. There is something goofy about this new system you guys put together, I have noticed a few issues but opening a new browser fixes it. I wish you guys would leave well enough alone! When are you going to fis the spell check? And the title area is still HUGE. Who is the big brain that is not addressing these issues? I used to like WordPress but now it is like a roller coaster ride to hell every time I post. I use a Google Chrome browser that is super with everything except wordPress.

I am a Volunteer and I predate all support Staff except one member, so “you guys” does not apply to me. I do not use the new editor. I use the classic editor and I provided a link to my post on how to use it too above for you.

You are welcome to keep using the WP-Admin editor if you prefer. @timethief has explained to you how to reach it.If you have any constructive feedback to give on how we can improve the new editor, you can add it in the first thread @timethief linked for you:
https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/editor-feedback?replies=730The new editor is still a work in progress, so there will be issues early on, but we are working to fix it.
Regarding the spell-checker, you can use the spell-check built into your browser for now, but we are working on adding it.
Lastly, if restarting your browser fixed an issue, then the problem is more likely with your browser than with the editor. Next time you have trouble uploading an image, please try clearing your browser cache and cookies, and reset your modem/router to see if that makes a difference.
