  Hi all,

  The website I am having problems with is http://www.whatsforeats.com.au

  I have already posted this on the WordPress.org support pages and have been advised to post here for advice as it likely relates to the Publicize function. Hoping this is the correct advice!

  This morning I received the “New Post” email notifications from WordPress ((email visible only to moderators and staff)). I checked with another person who is subscribed to my site and they confirmed they received the same “New Post” email notifications.

  Simultaneously, I had two Tweets posted from my twitter account with links to the same post. (which is REALLY weird as I can’t get any new scheduled posts to send to Twitter via the Publicize function!!)

  The two posts that re-published are:

  http://whatsforeats.com.au/2012/08/tricky-business/

  http://whatsforeats.com.au/2012/10/3p-salad-the-recipe-redux/

  My Twitter handle is @whatsforeats in case you wanted to see the tweets there too…

  The publication dates are still the original dates. I haven’t made any changes these posts since they were first published. As far as my site goes, I have not made any technical changes and published my latest post yesterday.

  Any idea what is going on and how to make sure this doesn’t keep happening?

  Since originally posting this issue, I have had another post “re-publish” about 15 minutes ago. This one is http://whatsforeats.com.au/2010/10/how-do-you-prevent-an-egg-allergy-with-eggs/

  Thanks,
  Nina

  Hi Nina,

  Well, that’s no good! Do you have publicize connected in Settings->Sharing, or is it not currently connected at all?

  What other plugins do you use on your site other than Jetpack?

  Hi Eurello,

  Yes I have Publicize connected in Settings –> Sharing.

  I also have the following plugins active:
  – Akismet
  – Easy Recipe
  – Genesis eNews extended
  – Genesis Featured Widget Amplified
  – Genesis Simple Edits
  – Google Analytics
  – Jetpack
  – Pinterest Pin It Button for Images
  – Simple Social Icons

  Most of these are the pugins recommended by the Child Theme developer.

  Hi Nina,

  Ok, I’ve just found this is a known issue right now with Jetpack. The thread where they’ll be updating about this is here:

  I’ll also keep you posted as I have more information.

  Hi Nina,

  The problem was a system-wide issue on our end and it has just been fixed. The forum thread Elizabeth sent you may not reflect that for a few hours but I received confirmation directly from our developers and wanted to personally let you know. Thanks so much for your report and for your patience.

  It’s safe to flip both Publicize and your Email Subscriptions back on now if you had them turned off.

  Cheers.
