  When I try to use the share tool on Plinky, I see a spinning cursor and the words “Sharing post.” Twice now I have seen this spinning cursor for over an hour and no post has been published on my WordPress account.

  I searched through the support topics on both Plinky and WordPress: I have verified my account on Plinky, followed WordPress’s support thread with regards to connecting Plinky, but still the posting feature is not working for me.

  I hope someone with Plinky experience can help me out! I only just discovered Plinky and it seems like such a shame to not be able to use it.

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

  You almost certainly won’t be able to use it here. WordPress.com is engineered to prevent autoposting. It is a great place to blog, but a terrible aggregator.

  I am having the same problem, yet I take issue with what raincoaster says. WordPress.com specifically announced that they were partnering with the site and that you could post from there to here – there’s even a support page on it at http://en.support.wordpress.com/plinky-a-tool-for-writers-block/ .

  It seems it is fixed – Plinky is now publishing the posts I wrote a while ago to my blog today.
