  Hi There,

  I recently added a contributor to my blog (Free WordPress.com version). All Authors currently use the Classic Editor (through wp-admin), but this new contributor can only access the new block editor. It is making it very difficult to teach her how we post as we’re using different screens. Is there a way to get this new contributor to the classic look until we all upgrade to block editor? She doesn’t seem to have the option on the right hand toolbar to ‘Switch to Classic Editor’. Not sure why that option isn’t there.

  Thank you

  Hi @alinepassiflora, sorry about that. We have new users use the new editor because the old one may not always be available.

  Would you send her username?
