Why am I no longer able to edit my posts, even after logging in to WordPress?

  Suddenly, I can’t edit my posts. I can get into the comments page and approve or trash comments, but I can’t edit any of my posts. The word “Edit” doesn’t appear at the top, the way it always has.

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

  Well, it’s been a couple of hours, and no response to my question. I still can’t edit my posts, though I can get into the Comments page and approve or trash comments.

  Formerly, the word “edit” appeared right after the time at the top of each post. Now it doesn’t.

  Could it be that the “user-help-user” system is not really a help system, but an “avoid WordPress responsibility” system?

  Hi Rodger,

  Please go to Posts > All Posts in your Dashboard. Once you are there, hover over the post that you want to edit. Then these links will appear under the title:

  Edit | Quick Edit | Trash | View

  Click Edit and you should be set!

  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

  Thanks Grace,

  Somehow, it magically corrected this morning, but I’ll save your advice for the next time.
