What am I doing wrong?
-
When ever I log in, all I see is the “blue bar” along the top with the “W” “My Blog” “Reader” then “Follow/Unfollow Blog” “New Post” etc.
I’ve been playing around with WP for a few hours, and I have no idea how to use! I set up on my phone, then accepted the email link, but I lost internet before I had a chance to “finalize” anything, such as avatar, etc.
Where is the “Black” bar that is supposed to be at the top and left side? I use the /wp-admin after the domain, etc. but only see the blue menu across the top.
I know I’m stupid…
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Start here: http://learn.wordpress.com and take a deep breath. You’re on the WP.com “universal” page, a sort of uber-dashboard. To get to your blog’s dashboard, go to http://greggveach.wordpress.com/wp-admin

@raincoaster, thanks. I did that, and I still see the blue bar. No black bar.
I stated above that I had used the /wp-admin, and still no avail; just the same blue bar. No way to change anything.
So, with kind regards, please, what am I doing wrong?
-
Well, I see you’ve created a post, so whatever you did wrong you must have gotten it right.
-
@raincoaster, no not yet.
All I get is the blue bar at the top, not the black bar that is shown in the tutorials.
And, the themes, I’m using are supposed to have sidebars, yet for some reason, it doesn’t.
Maybe a screen shot will have to be taken to show what I mean. I should have done that first, in hindsight, I see that now. LOL

Wont’ help if you don’t leave a link.
You’re not the only person reporting issues getting to the dashboard and I suspect staff have “improved” things, causing this problem. I’ll flag this so they can help track down what is happening.

Take a look at this thread and if it sounds like your problems, post your blog URL in it and the staff will send you some sort of secret handshake decoder ring, there is some tinkering with a few blogs that affect the Dashboard

@raincoaster Staff “improvements” always seem to muck things up, and that’s with anything, these days.
@auxclass yep that seems to be the issue.
I’ll most my site link over there.
Thanks to you both! :)
