 * I cannot edit a post because the information (yoast, sassy share, related posts)
   that is normally at the bottom UNDER the post is now in the middle of my posts,
   covering up what I need to edit. I’m not using elementor to edit. I’m using WP
   new block editing. I made 2 post a few days ago with no issue. I haven’t added
   any new plugins or made any changes other than small edits on the 2 posts.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcant-edit-post-6%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey [@amzy01](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amzy01/), can you take a screenshot
   of what you’re seeing in the editor, upload it to a service like [https://imgur.com/](https://imgur.com/),
   and link it here so we can see?

 * My post is underneath what you’re seeing on the screen. It’s kind of hard to 
   tell. But what you’re seeing should be at the very bottom, not in the middle 
   of my post. Hope that makes sense.
 * Thank you!

 * Tried opening a new post and starting over with a new one. Here’s the photo link.
   I keep hoping it’s a temporary fluke. I need to get my posts up. Ugh!

 * Yeahhhh that doesn’t look so good. Can I have you [open up your browser console and see if there are any errors](https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors)?
   If so, could you copy/paste them in here or take another screenshot?

 * I have no clue how to get into my dashboard from another browser in order to 
   check my site. I try to log into WP and it says my PW is wrong and kicked me 
   out for 20 minutes. I know my password. Makes no sense.
 * So, I’m locked out for a while.

 * Okay, finally got in. It seems to be okay on firefox and internet explorer. I
   was using google chrome which I like. Any way to get that browser to work? Is
   there a fix? Thank you!

 * Were you able to see if there were any errors in the developer console in Chrome?

 * I have no clue what a browser or developer console is or how to get to it.
 * I was able to edit in WP using Firefox. It slightly overlaid some of the blocks,
   but I could at least finish my post. Same with IE. Both the overlaid issues looked
   the same. With Google Chrome, I couldn’t even see my blocks to be able to select
   them.

 * Chrome, Firefox, and Safari are all browsers. You can use these directions to
   see if there are any errors in your Chrome developer console: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors#Chrome](https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors#Chrome)
