How do I publish WordPress to a Facebook PAGE not my personal Facebook timeline?
-
I am trying to get my WordPress connected with my Facebook page. When I connect my WordPress with my Facebook, it is not giving me the option to post information on my page but is only giving me the option to post information on my personal timeline. How do I make it so that it ONLY posts to my page?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Here are the instructions for connecting to your Page: Publicize to Facebook
It gives you a few options, as well:
You can choose if you would like to publicize to your profile or one of your pages. You can also make the connection available to all users of the blog. Meaning that when another user creates a post it will also publicize to this Facebook connection.

Unfortunately, it isn’t giving me the option to post to my page. It just gives my timeline as an option.

Does the Facebook profile you’re connecting with have admin status for the page you want to connect?
Did you see this step in the process, and did you follow it?
Finally, you will be prompted to allow WordPress.com to manage your pages. Click “Okay” for this dialog as well.
If not, could you tell us which steps you WERE given? Or try to repeat the process so you can see for sure?

Hi!
Ok so I deleted the WordPress app off my Facebook and I deleted the Facebook option off of sharing and now I will do it over again and tell you what I see.
1) WordPress.com will receive the following info: your public profile and friend list. (I press okay)
2) WordPress.com would like to post to Facebook for you. (I press okay)
3) WordPress.com would like to manage your Pages. (I press okay… it does not give me any choice for the pages I want to post to. I am the admin of the page because I created it).
4) Publicize to my Facebook Timeline:Ali Emmerson
Make this connection available to all users of this blog?
(I press okay.. but there is no option for me to post to a page).Then, when I do post to my Facebook, it posts as a status update on my personal timeline, not my page…
Do you know what I’m missing?
Thanks!

Yikes, if all the usernames involved are the respective admins, I can’t tell why that might be happening. I’ll tag this for Staff input, maybe they know something I don’t!
