  I hate the new layout and want to access editing on my site ALWAYS in the ‘Classic’ editor mode. It gets harder and harder which makes me less and less pleased with WordPress. Suggestion: Please make possible for future revisions so we can reset so we will always see in the Classic editor again. thank you

  Hi there,

  It sounds like your account has been switched to the unified navigation, which is being rolled out on WordPress.com. You can read about this here: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/unified-navigation/.

  If your account has been switched and you used to access the Classic Editor through WP Admin, you’ll need to turn on the Advanced Navigation in your Account Settings>Dashboard Appearance to access the Classic Editor.

  The Classic Editor is currently available, but in the long run, you’ll want to give the full Block Editor or the Classic Block a workout as the WordPress core development team do plan to phase this editor out in the future. The more you use it, the easier it will become.
  We also have a guide specifically for writers and bloggers that you can find here https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor-for-writers-bloggers/.

  I hope that helps!
