  I am trying to authorise my facebook connection, but don’t get anywhere it just times out, any suggestions?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I am having a somewhat similar problem. When I do get the connection made, it doesn’t last long. When I go back to do a new blog post, I have to reconnect the blog to facebook.

  For many months this worked flawlessly. Is there a setting I might have changed? Has some more general glitch arisen?

  Thanks.

  @ronacrete and julieshapiro
  How are you posting to Facebook?
  Are you using Publicize and if so have you used the reconnection instructions?

  AHA! Yes, I was using publicize. No, I had not used the reconnection instructions—I had just tried to connect again. I have now followed those instructions and actually got through to the facebook page and everything. It looks like it worked.

  Thanks SO much.

  I’m so happy to hear that. Now you know what to do if this happens again though I hope it doesn’t. Thanks for returning and sharing this good news. Happy blogging! :)
