  I’ve always been able to edit my website from the easy to use layout editor but as of yesterday, it totally changed and my content on the page editor is almost just a bunch of code. Long gone is the ability to clone elements and click the edit button for certain buttons.I now get just get raw text and I don’t really know what I’m doing. Here is a screenshot of how it is now: https://d.pr/i/8aVJl1 Sadly, I don’t have a screenshot of how the editor was before but I hope someone is familiar with what I’m talking about.

  Has anyone else had this problem with the layout changing? I can’t seem to change it back to how it was. I tried to see if I can find a toggle that changes the editor but no luck. I would really appreciate if anyone has any tips!

  Hi @itdesoto ,

  Thank you for the screenshot! But I believe that is a screenshot of the wp-admin of a self-hosted version of WordPress. Self-hosted versions of WordPress are provided from WordPress.org and are different to the WordPress.com services discussed in these forums.
  WordPress.com and WordPress.org

  Head over to the WordPress.org forums and someone should be able to help you there.

  If you are indeed referring to a WordPress.com site, please share with us your URL and we will point you in the right direction. All the best!
