“Visit Site” button not found ?
-
In the new layout of Dashboard, I can’t find “Visit Site” button. It was indeed a very useful feature for the user.
Is there any specific reason why it has been removed ?

The very first thing to do when you come to the forums is a search. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/a-few-suggestions-about-the-upcoming-27-upgrade-here?replies=36#post-277920 Just click on your blog title.

You Visit Site by clicking on the blog name up top. There’s also a Preview button right under “Publish”, and there’s a “View” tab under post and page titles when you look at their list.

The “Visit Site” button is gone, but as with many blogs you visit it you click on the title you’ll see the “home page.”
On the upper left of your dashboard, you see a “W” wordpress logo and next to that is the title of your blog.
Click the title and it will send you to your blog.Also, when you edit a post or page, you can click on “preview” to see your post.
The button may have been removed to save valuable screen space. Clicking on the title has apparently become the conventional way to return “home” for internet savvy people. If you know that convention, then you don’t have to waste time looking for a separate button or reading a list of options.
I’m only speculating, because not everyone knows to click the title of a blog or website, and some old ones don’t even work…

I couldn’t find it at first either.
Just go to top right of your dashboard. If you hover the mouse over your blog name, “visit site” will show as a the usual mouse pop-up. Just click your blog name and you’ll go to your site.

/pssst-letters, that’s the “other right”. ;-)
Related, but different, the only way I could find to move between my *kof* 5 blogs was by using the “My Dashboards” in the AdminBar. There’s no integral link to those additional dashboards?

@justjennifer: You mean you don’t have your own blogs in the bookmarks bar of your browser???

@panaghiotisadam-Nope! Never had a reason to do so. I normally log in through my main blog and then use the old tabs at the top of the page to navigate between them. But the AdminBar is doing the job.
Now if they’d add a direct link to the Forums in the Admin Bar rather than making me either click to open a Help tab or scroll down to the bottom of the page to find a Support link, I’d be happy.
