   How do I add the link in the footer of each post that allows me to edit now -- i.e.: get back to the editing page, after a post has been published?

   Are you logged into the front of your site?

   I'm new to wordpress so I may not have understood your question, but I only see the edit link on my blog when I'm logged in.

   Thanks for the suggestion! I am logged in, yes. I see the link when I use my wordpress.com site, but my new wordpress.org site doesn't have it. I suspect it has something to do with the template I chose -- which I am now trying to modify to add that function. Not sure where to find code or widget...

   Are you looking for this piece of code, which would have to be inside The Loop?...

   <?php edit_post_link(__('Edit'), '', ''); ?>

   That's a theme-specific issue - not all the theme designers use all the same template tags. As Sivar said: add the tag to your template(s).

   Yes, that's the code! Do you know exactly where I would put it?
