Facebook sharing button doesn't work
-
My Facebook sharing icon links blog posts to my personal page, but not to the community page I manage. This is a new glitch.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
The FB sharing button I have at the bottom of my blog posts suddenly won’t link a story to my related, community Facebook page. It will, however, link to my personal FB page. This is a problem, as almost no one has seen the latest post I linked on Facebook, just by pasting in the wordpress shortlink and uploading a photo.
-
When you click the share button and a popup shows up, there should be a dropdown at the top left of this popup window. Can you change that to your community page?
If not, make sure that that the account you’re currently logged in as on Facebook, has proper rights to post on that community page.
-
Yes, I do get the drop down box and I do change it to my community page (homewoodatlarge), but the link won’t appear on that page. I’ve tried about six times, and am worried now that all of them will display sometime in the middle of the night.
-
It’s more of a Facebook issue than WordPress, really. Everything that happens within that popup window, happens on Facebook (your WordPress site only creates a link to the Facebook share page).
So, if it doesn’t show up, you might want to check it on the Facebook side of things. Privacy settings perhaps?
-
I haven’t changed any privacy settings. Facebook helpers aren’t very helpful, but I’ll try anyway.

Facebook helpers aren’t very helpful,
I hear you….they can be a little difficult to get information or help from sometimes indeed.
