Word Press is driving me crazy

So, somehow I got back to the adding post screen that I like. I suppose it is not modern or state of the art, but, darn it, just because you can change something doesn’t mean you should. This is not decades ago with women waiting to find out where their hemline is supposed to be to be “in style.”

Frankly, all these changes seem equivalent to someone deciding in the past to change the lines on notebook paper to run vertically or be wavy.

Now, before anyone thinks that I am against change, please keep your thoughts sensible. I certainly appreciate the word processor over the typewriter and I truly love the internet and not having to know what library has what and then what the hours are. It is this little stuff that programmers feel they have to fool around with that irritates me. I would be happy if they would just put their new format ideas in a box and I could browse through them.

I did not like opening my add a post page to see that I was “BLOCKING.” All the options that have always been at the top of the writing area were GONE. I only found my way back to this format by clicking on an option in a leap of faith. For all I know, I could have wound up with the Chinese alphabet before me.

What is really scary is that I am supposed to be “not stupid” and even a wee bit above average. I almost suspect that somewhere really savvy computer people are looking right through the screen at me and laughing. If that is so, I need an emoticon for STICKING OUT TONGUE.

  1. I totally understand this. I fight the new format. They had Classic editor available for quite a while but now in my program it isn’t even an option anymore. I am resistant to change. Is this an age thing?

    I refuse to admit it.
