Updating wordpress.com site not working
-
I have some old blog posts on a site I am adding something to. I tried to add a link and some text to an old blog post, clicked update and it updates in the admin, but not on the site. Can anyone tell me why.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Aloha trancie, It looks like you are working with a self-hosted WordPress.org site (with Unified Layer?) instead of the WordPress.com-hosted version supported here.
Learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/I would recommend searching on the WordPress.org support forums for similar issues. If you cannot find anything that works, you can start your own thread. The forums are completely separate from each other, so you will need to register an account there if you haven’t done so already.

No. This site is on WordPress.com. When I log into the admin it is .com.
Hi @trancie,
Your domain has a .com extension, but it is using software from WordPress.org.
In the footer of your site, you’ll see this text, “Proudly powered by WordPress “.
If you click that WordPress link, you’ll see that it takes you to WordPress.org.
If you need support for a self-hosted site using software from WordPress.org, please try posting your question in the WordPress.org support forums.
To learn about the differences between the two versions of WordPress (.com vs.org), please see this guide.

I was told it was wordress.com. When I log inot the admin it is https://wordpress.com/posts/mysite

@trancie, Is http://californiainstituteofengineering.com/ the website you are having trouble with? If so, it may be using the Jetpack plugin to link it with your WordPress.com account. That’s what I do myself – I have a self-hosted site that I use Jetpack on so it shows up for me under my WordPress.com dashboard.
I would recommend checking with Jetpack support and see what they recommend:

Hi Everyone –
It doesn’t look like my help is needed here. Trancie, have you been in touch with the Jetpack team already?

It does have Jetpack. I have had no response from the people at Jetpack. I am still having the issue that when I publish a page or click the update button to edit an existing page it does not update or publish. When I log into the admin at sitedomain.com/wp-admin there are no page to edit. I have no idea what is wrong.
-
Should it update the site and not just the admin when I click the update button or is there more to click.

When you use the WordPress.com software it should update your site. Although, if you are having a connection issue with your Jetpack connection that could cause trouble.
