  Why do I not have visual editor? I need to make internal and external links but have no way to do that.

  If you already have a site then unfortunately you failed to post the most important thing for getting accurate support and it is the URL of the site in question.

  To save you time you can type the actual URL of the site you are referring to into http://whoishostingthis.com to determine who hosts the site so you know where to post for support.

  We provide support only for sites hosted on WordPress.COM servers. You could be posting to the wrong support forum. To be clear we do not provide support for local installs of WordPress.ORG software, or for WordPress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, linked to WordPress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites WordPress.COM account page.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
  See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.

  Visual editor should be ideally available, no matter what dashboard you use.

  It should be at the top right in two options Visual/HTML – do you not see this?

  As @timethief mentioned — if you are a WordPress.com user, it shoud automatically have your site address below.

  WordPress.com is where all sites are hosted under one server, and WordPress.org is for self-hosted sites.

  Thanks!
