new facebook won’t import my blog into the Notes section
-
wondering if anyone else if having trouble with the new facebook not automatically streaming your blog into the Notes section?
In fact their no longer seems to be a place to tell it what blog to import.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
We cannot even begin to try and help until you post the URL of the blog to which you are referring starting with http://

That’s nice. Now we have two bloggers who have posted and failed to provide links to there blogs … lol : D

Thanks for sharing your solution. Hopefully, joncooney will return and see it. -
I am also having the same issue. No matter what feed I add for Facebook to import, it says “Import Failed, We couldn’t find a feed using the URL you provided.”
I’ve now tried two feeds:
http://www.chocostudio.com/blog/feed/
and
http://feeds.feedburner.com/ChocoStudioBlog
Thank you for looking into it! It was working until the latest Facebook update.

Ok, I just figured out a way around it. I’m not sure what’s causing the problem though, but it feels like a facebook bug.
After unsuccessfully providing the feed address to facebook, I clicked to go to the main profile, and then clicked back (to the feed import dialog). When I did this, facebook showed a new screen asking me to confirm the import of this feed. Once I confirmed it, it seems to be activated now.

The blog linked to your username is not a wordpress.COM blog. This forum is only for those with free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. If you are referring to a wordpress.com blog please post the URL for that blog starting with http:// -
The problem is solved. BTW, I’d imagine the issue is similar for wordpress.COM hosted blogs as well (since it is caused by a Facebook bug).
Hope my advice will help those having this issue.

Any other suggestions. I have tried all of the above mentioned but when I enter http://staymarried4ever.wordpress.com I continue to receive the same url issue highlighted.

@maytm12: are you adding the /feed at the end of the url? If you don’t specify the feed url, it won’t work. I initially got an error message when I did it, but it still worked and my blog is being imported. It’s strange. I think the “new” FB is having quite a few issues. (If you have the “rss” or other feed link in your sidebar, you can grab the correct URL from there.)

I have tried both staymarried4ever.wordpress.com/feed and without feed. I will try the other suggestion – thanks. This is a real pain for someone who is not tech savvy at all.

I am now having the same issue. I am http://inlets.wordpress.com. Its pretty strange since it imported automatically just 2 days ago and now it isn’t.

This solution below had worked for me once, but now it’s broken again. No url since I have it installed on our own domain. I know you can’t help timethief but I still need answers!

If you’re having this issue, please test if your feed validates:
http://www.feedvalidator.org/
http://validator.w3.org/feed/(you can ignore the recommendation for “Unregistered link relationship: search”, that is not an error)
If everything else validates and you’re still not able to set up the Notes import, please contact Facebook about the issue.
You can always use an official WordPress.com feature called Facebook Publicize instead. If you’re having any trouble with the Publicize feature, check out the troubleshooting section of our support page.
