  When displaying a post or a page how can I go directly to the classic (original) editor and not the beep beep boop diluted one which does not contain some of the attributes I normally want to edit? I find this situation more and more annoying, I’m afraid.

  Hey there!

  I think the only way to go directly to the classic editor is to go to your WP Admin panel then Posts > Add New or hover over your blog title and click edit.

  Here’s a link to the discussion about the old editor and the work arounds: Using old editor

  Thanks, but hovering of my blog title where?

  No the only way I can see having viewed a page or post, to edit it you have to get to Wp Admin – not easy – then select Posts (or Pages) then All Posts then search for the post then select Edit – wow! what a show stopper and certainly a damper on enthusiasm!
