  My posts on The Henry Chronicles are sharing on Facebook as Betsy Stone’s The Philanthrophile. That’s another blog. I want my share/byline to be Betsy Stone’s The Henry Chronicles.

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

  Hi Betsy,

  There are several ways we can try to troubleshoot this. First, can you try changing the website URL on your Facebook profile following the instructions here?

  https://www.facebook.com/help/334656726616576/

  It looks like we’re sending the correct author along with the post. You can see this when you click “Debug” here:

  https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fthehenrychronicles.com%2F2014%2F07%2F30%2Fwhat-will-happen-to-me%2F

  Under article:author, you’ll see the following:

  1361695715

  When you enter the ID code after Facebook.com, you’ll be directed to your profile. So, I believe this is an issue with the primary URL Facebook has on file for your Facebook profile.

  Let’s start there and see if that fixes the issue!

  When I follow the link you sent me to the Facebook help page, I don’t see any options related to URL. I also looked on my profile and cannot find anything about a linked URL there. And finally I searched within Facebook help for “primary URL” and only turned up links related to ads and businesses. So I am still stuck.

  Hey Betsy,

  Can you try the following?

  1. Navigate to your Facebook profile
  2. Click the “About” tab
  3. On the right-hand side of the screen, click “Contact and Basic Info”

  Under “Contact Information”, you should either see a web address that you can change or the option to add a web address to your profile. Can you make sure the URL reads thehenrychronicles.com?
