NO! I do not want to use the new, stupid beep-beep-bop-boop new post page! Stop changing stuff! Now my pictures are too small. On the old new post page they were as wide as the whole page. How do I get to the setting to make the pictures bigger?
Do not make us reignite the flaming beavers of revolution!!!









I’m a creature of habit, not change!
Change is bad
You’ll get no arguments here.
what if I like arguments?
I see. Do you want the full argument, or were you thinking of taking a course? Sound familiar?
A course is a course, of course of course… did that sound familiar?

right…
Arthur. See this link. These are instructions for alwaysredirecting Beep Beep Boop to the classic WordPress editor. It’s so easy, even you can do it. You just have to pick the browser you use for WordPress (Firefox or Chrome) and follow the very simple instructions.
I don’t see a link…
Okay, I guess it didn’t work. Try this: http://diaryofdennis.com/2015/03/24/how-to-force-a-redirect-to-the-classic-wordpress-com-editor-interface/
I can’t do all that
I have no idea what browser I am running… and I am not going to start messing around with script and changing settings that might effect other stuff. But thanks.
Seriously? Are you on a Windows PC or a Mac. If you’re using a Mac, you may be using Safari or Chrome. If you’re using a PC, you may be on Firefox, Chrome, or Internet Explorer (and the only thing IE is good for is downloading Firefox or Chrome). Anyway, it’s not that difficult, but yes, if you’re worried about it screwing up other stuff on your computer, best not to try it.
my wife would kill me after the last virus scare
I get that, believe me.
ha
Don’t even get me started on the new stats page
I know…
Have you tried going into the Media library and editing them there? Or using the “edit” button right on the picture in the post? There is, of course, a limit to just how big they can be, but usually you can choose between Thumbnail, Medium and Large.
The edit button takes you back to the new post page… I will try the media library one… thanks
No, I mean the edit thingy on the photo itself. While in edit mode for the post, click on the picture. A border will appear and above that border is a menu. Click on the pencil icon in the menu, and a new screen will pop up which will allow you to change the size of the picture, and add a caption, link, etc. if you wish.
no way…
That totally worked… you rock!!!
Yay!!
thanks
Yeah, I have the same problem! I don’t understand how to change the size either =(
they just won’t stop messing with it!
It’s not the easiest to navigate.
I hate it… and all the other unwanted changes they have made.
If it ain’t broke…keep fixing it beep beep boop…sigh.
I really liked they way they used to have the pictures and pretty much everything else.
Stop being so ‘helpful’ WordPress.
We keep telling them… get the flaming beavers ready… we march at dawn!
We shall avenge our fallen bloggers!
when we figure out how
Maddening isn’t it??
they drive me crazy
