What is happening with the wordpress dashboard?

  In the last days, it has become much more difficult to edit the posts of my blog (ventosueste.wordpress.com) in the mode “https://ventosueste.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php”; I continue to have access to that page (largely because I have the url saved), but now, almost everything that I do transfers me to the mode “https://wordpress.com/posts/ventosueste.wordpress.com” (much less user-friendly, in my opinion).

  The main problem is that, now, even in the page “https://ventosueste.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php”, most items in the lateral sidebar have links to “https://wordpress.com/…” instead of “https://ventosueste.wordpress.com/wp-admin/….”

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Already solved – it was the “unified navigation” thing

  Hi there,

  I’m glad to hear you figure it all out. You can read more about Unified Navigation here: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/unified-navigation/.

  You can turn on the Advanced Navigation in your Account Settings>Dashboard Appearance to access the Classic Editor. Here’s more about that:

  I hope that helps!
