I can no longer post on twitter

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello. The My WordPress blog is no longer allowing me to post to twitter. I press twitter and the box doesn’t appear to tell me it’s posted and it doesn’t appear on twitter? :)

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

    Hi there,

    Can you confirm that you are trying to share your posts to Twitter via the publicize feature?

    If you are, then can you try to disable and then reconnect your Twitter publicize account? You can do this by clicking disconnect on the publicize screen and then reconnecting. You can find your sharing page here – https://wordpress.com/sharing/

    If that doesn’t fix it, you may need to try to revoke WordPress.com access from your Twitter account, then following the above steps again to reconnect. You can disconnect apps from Twitter here – https://twitter.com/settings/applications

    You can see a screenshot of the WordPress.com app in Twitter here – https://snag.gy/ypmaSE.jpg

    Please let me know if this works!

    You are trying to share your posts on Twitter with the publicize feature, correct?

    Can you try to publish a new post, after reconnecting. The reconnection steps are listed here, check these to make sure you didn’t miss a step – https://en.support.wordpress.com/twitter/#publicize-to-twitter

    Let me know if you are able to post after that!

  • Hi @livinthedream1blog, can you clarify whether you’re clicking the “Twitter” button at the bottom of an already existing post, or whether you’re trying to automatically tweet out a new post?

    I don’t see any recent posts, so I’m guessing it’s the former issue, but please confirm and we’ll point you in the right direction. Cheers!
