Is there a way to sign a message using the new Blockchain.info wallet? In the old version it was quite easy. But in the new version, they seems to have removed this functionality. Actually, this is quite frustrating.

You can't sign messages with addressss created in new Blockchain.info wallet. If you have imported private key or if your addresses were created in old Bloclchain.info wallet, you can sign messages. If you want to sign messages with addresses created from new Blockchain.info wallet, you will have to first get private key of that address from seed (aka 12-word recovery phrase) and then import private key to a wallet or use a program only for signing messages.

I am also facing the same problem, as I can't sign messages with the new Blockchain.info wallet. How to get the private key of this wallet? I have the 12-word recovery phase with me (written down in paper).
