  While stating up my blog I agreed to publish on face book. I would like to cancel this, how do I cancel the connection?

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

  Go to Settings->Sharing on the dashboard and disconnect Facebook from Publicize, right at the top of the page.

  Go to Settings->Sharing on the dashboard

  Sharing is a submenu that will appear when you click on Settings.

  I am having the same issue, I think. Following your directions however doesn’t tell me my blog is connected to facebook. My account, on the other hand, appears to be.
  When I hover over my (blank) profile picture in the top right hand corner and go to “find friends” it tells me twitter isn’t connected (for example) and gives me a button from which to connect, but it tells me Facebook is connected and gives me an option to automatically share all my posts to facebook.

  It doesn’t give me an option to disconnect from facebook and that is what I need to do (and what I believe is the same issue). Is there any chance you could help me here?

  Cheers

  Matt

  If you’ve previously connected your blog to Facebook using Publicize your blog could still be connected on Facebook’s side. Go to the Settings page on Facebook and look for Apps in the menu (should be the left sidebar). Find the WordPress app and remove it. Then the connection should be severed.
