# Elementor editor missing from dashboard

 * Hi, I’ve read the thread related to this and it was closed 4 yrs ago, but seemingly
   with no further responses from the people actually seeking help to say that they
   had had success. I don’t know anything regarding how to edit my site, which was
   created for me a few years ago. I let it go dormant and want to upgrade how it
   looks (hence Elementor). I don’t know any coding at all, or even how to access
   my wpfiles or directories to insert code (suggestion is to ‘de-bug’ by inserting
   a chain of code for ‘beginners’ – I am a beginner and don’t know where to do 
   that). I have looked at the suggestions and do not feel confident deactivating
   everything else (why would I do that? – I need everything working). Please, bear
   with me, and any help would be gratefully received. Thank you.

    Thank
   you for this (sorry – I only just worked out how to reply). I had to reinstall
   my WP, update my php (i had to get my sp to do it for me) and it works perfectly
   now. Thank you again.
