trouble posting
-
when I go to post on my blog it just says beep beep boop and it will not let me post anything. The screen only says “Beep Beep Boop” and that is the only visible thing. How can I fix this so I can post to my blog?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is a current issue with the New Post button here https://wordpress.com/post/ Staff has advised us to use the post editor in the main dashboard instead, as the New Post button is undergoing some changes and is unreliable at present, including adding images: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/where-did-the-add-media-button-go?replies=2#post-1927520
Go to your blog’s main dashboard (http://kaylalokeinsky.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) and create a new post by clicking on Posts ->Add New in the sidebar menu. You’ll find creating posts this way is much more stable and provides many more options for making it look exactly like you want. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/new-post-screen/ Existing posts you can edit by going to Posts ->All Posts and clicking the Edit link under the post title.

I am really getting frustrated. I have loved wordpress for years, but now it’s almost unusable. When I log into my blog I no longer have the tools I used to have to manage the site. When I log into wordpress.com and try to post, I do not have the options I used to have to post. Tags and categories shows up on the screen, but putting in tags and categories, which is unlighted, results in…nothing. I have gone to the dashboard option, but there are problems with that also. What do I do? Why did wordpress change what was working so well for so long?

If you’ve been here for years you should know the software is on continuous roll-out and new features are constantly being introduced while others disappear. Complaining about it won’t make it go back to the way it was, so best to adapt and learn to work around the new features.According to staff the issues with the New Post button in the Reader has now been resolved and I am not aware of any issues with the post editor in the main dashboard, having used it myself just yesterday and again today, but if you’re experiencing a specific problem, please try to describe it as completely as you can and we can help you find a way around it or tag it for staff assistance.
As you seem to be having problems with both post editors it might be a browser issue. Are you using one of the browsers and versions listed here? http://browsehappy.com/
