Changed title
-
I changed the title of my post before publishing. Why did the original title show up as a subheading in my Facebook, Tumblr and Twitter posts?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hey there!
Before you changed the title, had the post been saved as a draft, or scheduled for future publication? Was it just the title that had the old text, or did any non-edited content appear as well?
Could you send me a screenshot of the way the post appears on Facebook? You can simply upload the screenshot to your Media Library, like any other image, and I’ll be able to access it from there. Just let me know when there’s something I should look at.
The page at the following link has some helpful tips for taking screenshots:
When I try to share your post with your Facebook sharing button, the correct title appears. Do you have the same experience?
Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

Hey there!
Thanks for the image. I am going to speak with our developers to see if they can get to the bottom of the issue.
If you’d like to rid yourself of the old title, you can delete your post from Facebook, then manually click your Facebook sharing button at the bottom of your post. I tested this, and the old title wasn’t on the Facebook post.
I will let you know when we get to the bottom of the issue. In the meantime, please let me know if anything like this occurs again. Many thanks.

One last questions, while I’m troubleshooting the issue:
Did you create/edit the post in the classic posting format? Or the new version?
Thanks much!
