  I’m deeply dislike the custom WordPress posting screen. Is there any way that I can simply choose to use the standard one without having to go out of the way to get there?

  I can’t use markdown, it doesn’t push updates to social networks by default, and even the theme is blatantly different than expected; It’s aligned with the WordPress.com site rather than the theme of the blog or the standard WordPress admin.

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

  Hey there!

  I’m deeply dislike the custom WordPress posting screen. Is there any way that I can simply choose to use the standard one without having to go out of the way to get there?

  Sure, you can bookmark your Classic Dashboard:
  https://dsoprea.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  I can’t use markdown, it doesn’t push updates to social networks by default, and even the theme is blatantly different than expected;

  • On WordPress.com, you can add HTML to your content area in your site in the HTML tab in your new editor, or your Text tab in the classic editor. If you have the Custom Design upgrade, you can access your theme’s CSS. Other than that, there has never been additional access to your site’s code on WordPress.com, regardless of the new/classic dashboard.
  • You can setup Publicize for your posts to push automatically to social networking:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/
    If you’re having any trouble with the auto-publish feature, let us know if you need a hand with that! If you need assistance troubleshooting, send as a link to the post that didn’t Publicize. Or…if you prefer, simply move back to the Classic editor, if that was more reliable for you.

  Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Cheers!
