I wrote a post and went to save that draft.
Unfortunately, the button wasn’t there.
Being optimistic despite past experience, I thought I’d add the tags and select the categories.
But no tags could be saved. I’d enter them and they would disappear.
So I thought I’d select the categories.
But there weren’t any.
Couldn’t save, couldn’t add tags, couldn’t select categories.
All I could do is wait and hope.
And post this short rant, to see what happens to it.
Because I’m a WordPress user.
And I’m an optimist.
Part Deux
I published this and it went fine.
I selected update.
To see what happened next.
The tags were saved for the published post.
But there were still no categories.
🤔 As far as I know, you are supposed to have access to categories. Being unable to access it is a sure sign of a glitch.

Yes, exactly. Happened on several today. Yet, several others were completely normal, that is, as expected, with categories and all. Ah, tech, you know? I love it and hate it. Cheers

WordPress seems to want to force everyone to use a smart device rather than a computer to post. Also I was told by their support people that all the changes to how people create and publish posts is to please businesses because the company’s goal was to cater to businesses rather than bloggers as they started out doing. That was the reason for the change to block editor, which I find far harder to create with than the classic editor. Hugs

Yes, I’d read other bloggers saying the same. Their attitude disappoints me. I despise block editor. I, too, find it much harder, cumbersome, and tedious. Thanks for the info. Hugs, ‘bro.
