Facebook removed shares

  • Unknown's avatar

    yesterday facebook removed all shares from my WordPress site.

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

  • Hi there,

    What do you mean exactly? We have no control over what Facebook does, so if they removed shared posts from their website, you’ll need to contact them to find out why they did that.

    How pray?
    They insulate themselves from contact
    Repeatedly filled in report fault box.I am in process of posting an original poem each day this year .
    They removed the lot!
    Is anything on my site unlawful?

  • I understand this is frustrating to you, but there is nothing we can do to help. Facebook is a different company, and we don’t control what they do on their platform, nor do we have any control over the way their reporting and support processes work.

    Is anything on my site unlawful?

    I am neither a lawyer nor a judge, nor a member of Facebook’s terms of service team, so I cannot comment on that.

    it is only shares from WordPress that have gone, nothing else.
    yes, i know you are different cpmpanies!!!

    I recommend contacting Facebook for more information about why the shares have been removed from their side. There should be an option to do so if you login at facebook.com, click the “?” icon at the top right of the page and select “Report a Problem”.

    may have come from:

    duckduckgo search got to twitter account of Nicole Valentin

    last tweet there was 2014 so it is probably a disused account that has been acquired for the purposes oh a spiteful hacker

  • What exactly are you speaking of? Where was new material added? On your site? Or on Twitter? As I already told you in https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/spiteful-hacking/, there is no evidence at all of unauthorised access to your WordPress.com account.

    I did not post this:-

    https://poetmorgan.wordpress.com/2018/07/06/1906/

    surely this is evidence!!!

    who is #1906(untitled)???

  • As I said in your other thread, if you did not publish that post it was done by someone who already knows your password, as there was no password reset on your account before that post was published, and it was most likely even done from your own computer.

    who is #1906(untitled)???

    That is not a “who”

    #1906 is the unique ID for that post in your site’s database – all posts have one – and it’s untitled because that post was published without having a title set.

    my computer was off,
    i used Kindle fire and found it
    I did not post it and no one has been in this house

    I am finding this disingenuous
    I have been sharing original composition poems each day this year and sharing on Facebook , G+, Twitter
    I have left twitter as link:
    http//wp.me/p4ihKs-uk
    took me to a twitter page not active since 2014

    i am a poet not a writer of code. this is beyond my skill set

  • Unknown's avatar

    I did not post it and no one has been in this house


    @kokkieh
    mentioned the post could have been published by someone who knows your password (as it wasn’t published by you). Therefore, I recommend changing your password and enabling two-step authentication to add an extra layer of security to your account.

    credo sed caveo

    am mulling it over,

    did change password today but that does not reinstate 200 plus lost shares.

    move house because of foul neighbours, must work out how to do same on line.

    surprised you cannot see odd one out url

    thanks all the same

    had thing checked by helper, she thinks weakest place is wordpress shares

    simples, disconnect shares, will do the later

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi @poetmorgan, I just had a conversation with our developers, and there is no way that a post that has been shared to one of the social services can be deleted from the WordPress.com end once it is shared. We simply cannot do that. That ability is not there, and we could not even add that ability if we wanted to.

    When your site is connected to Facebook through Publicize, an App is put onto your Facebook account. That App would show up under Settings > Apps & Websites. If that App was deleted from your FB settings, and the Also delete all posts, photos and videos on Facebook that Todoist may have published on your behalf. checkbox was clicked, that would remove all posts that were shared from your WordPress site.

    Just as a precaution, I would suggest you change the password on your Facebook account, and continue to follow up with Facebook on this issue since it cannot be something from our side of things.

    Thank you

    Will talk to someone who understands this

    We are hoping for a good outcome for you. Let us know how things go.

    tried reconnecting to twitter.

    no publicize

    lead me to a Twitter account: Rattler42589167

    interesting, Rattler is a term used in Royal navy for a man named Morgan.

    clearly i can no longer connect shares.

    this limits use of WordPress

    Seems I must leave it dormant and reconsider options.
