Why can't I post a new post
-
When I click on New Post I get a box saying beep beep boop. Why is this ?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Looks like a redesign. Gonna shop today for a new blog option! Looks insane already: No SAVE button anymore when you’re working on a draft. The only option is UPDATE. So you “update” a draft document? 25 years worth of word-publishing/IT interface thinking down the drain!
Plus TWO buttons that make no sense: Status (draft vs. publish) and Publish (immediate vs. scheduled). SAY WHAT? Instead of a simple, unequivocal PUBLISH button? Now you do what…set Status to Publish and Publish to “immediate.” Then press UPDATE? Three steps….seriously??
Who are they talking to redesign this? Facebook?

Oh it gets worse! You “update” (i.e. SAVE) your draft and the Beepy-Booping interfaces says “You’ve updated a post! Lookin’ good!” So infantile. Gonna be hard to get any real work done on this platform I see.
Plus in my draft many of the carriage-return/line-feeds are GONE. Gotta step through the funky interface to reformat.
Time to investigate PencilBlue!

I hate it. I may end up deleting it altogether which sucks because I had a blogspot one and never did have as many followers on that. Guess I’ll be looking for another site.

I cannot stand this “new post” design. It used to be simple to post a new daily picture to my photoblog. Now I seen to need a computer science degree to do it. Please bring back “Post a Photo” option, or I will have to leave Wrdpress behind.

It does that for me as well. I hate it. Think I’ll just end up leaving wordpress which sucks as I can’t see anything to export a wordpress blog to another blog site either.

It looks as if the ability to directly host Youtube links is gone as well? Hopefully this will be changed back soon.

Youtube must be a separate issue, Please start a new thread for that and I’ll help you out there.
