Facebook account not integrating
-
Hi there.
I’m trying to add my Facebook account to my blog (so I can share my posts). I follow all the steps given in the tutorial on this site. Facebook asks for permissions, I give them. But then I get redirected to this URL: https://public-api.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=sharing&action=completed&service=facebook&id=3912832#_=_Which only shows the message “Hola mundo.” Which, translated to English is “Hello World”.
I’ve even tried deleting the (wordpress) app from te apps permissions panel on Facebook… but still not working. I don’t know if it helps but I had no trouble adding my Twitter account.Thank you very much!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

1. Try flushing your FB cache but disconnect from FB first http://umairj.com/146/how-to-clear-facebook-shares-cache/
2. Disconnect the Publicize app and reconnect it to the correct account. http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/
(a) Try the full reconnect procedure again detailed at http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-facebook including step 3 (removing the FB app), which is probably the most important step.
(b) http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-twitter3. See also publicize troubleshooting http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#troubleshooting
Note: RSS Grafitti http://www.facebook.com/RSS.Graffiti can be used for posting to Facebook walls if you prefer. RSS Graffiti periodically checks the RSS/Atom feeds that you specify and posts any new entries it finds to the Facebook Walls that you specify. You can get any feed written on any wall (Facebook Profiles, Fan Pages, Groups, Events and Application Profile Pages). In fact, multiple feeds to multiple walls. You choose the combination.
Please note that reconnecting Publicize with Facebook and/or with Twitter does not re-publicize missed posts, but it will work for future posts.

Hi. Thanks for answering.
But…
1. I’m not trying to share a URL
2. I haven’t been able to connect my FB account on this blog AT ALL… therefore, I cant REconnect itI’ve alredy checked the troubleshooting section… nothing useful.

1. I’m not trying to share a URL
What are you wanting to share if it’s not a URL to your most recent post?
-
Hi.
Yes, I want to publish my posts, but I want to do it, using the Publicize option. So, actually, I want to share the post when I publish it (this was somewhat redundant).But, again, the main issue is to connect my FB account.

Hi jrobertomar,
It sounds like you’re running into problems at the point when WordPress tries to connect with Facebook.
Are you logged into your Facebook account already when you try to connect? If so, you might try disconnecting from your Facebook account, clearing your browser cache, and then logging in through the WordPress connection.
If you’re not connected to Facebook, when you click on “Añadir nueva conexión Facebook.” you should immediately be taken to a page that looks like this:

Hi jackiedana.
I’ve just did that. I even tried on a different browser so there was absolute no caché, cookies, opened sessions… but the same happened.Like I said before, I get to the poit where the WP app asks me for permissions, which of course I give, but then, when I think I’m suppossed to be redirected back to the wp-admin of my blog, I get redirected to this URL: https://public-api.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=sharing&action=completed&service=facebook&id=3912832#_=_
With the message “Hello World” (in Spanish… my blog is Spanish).
Thanks in advance… and I’m sorry to bother :(

Hi again,
It looks like this issue is happening for other users, so I have reported it to our developers. I’ll let you know what I find out.

The same thing happens to me when I try to connect my wordpress blog with my Tumblr account.
-
Have any of these issues been resolved? I have been having the same issue – getting directed to “Hello World” page and it will not let me connect my bog with my other social media pages.
-
I don’t think so. And now when I try and disconnect my FB page from publicize, I get the same “Hello World” message. Very bizarre.
-
-
I’ve just checked in with the developer who was digging into this issue. I hope to have an update for everyone soon.

Yeah, it’s still happening on my end. Hopefully the developer can get it squared away soon!
