  When I publish a post in WordPress, it is exported to Twitter and FaceBook. Twitter has not been a problem; however, in FaceBook the posts are appearing multiple times, sometimes days later. I can manually delete them from my notes in FaceBook, but it is a hassle. Is there any way to stop this from happening?

  Are you using our Publicize feature, or Facebook’s Notes importer?

  I am using WordPress’s Sharing feature. However, I do notice that there is a link to WordPress within FaceBook. It appears that when I publish a post, it immediately appears on my wall in Facebook. The subsequent posts appear in my notes folder. That is where I have to go to delete them.

  That’s the problem then. :)

  You’re using both Publicize and Facebook’s Notes importer.

  The Notes importer can be a little bit buggy, so just remove your blog from it, and Publicize will take care of the rest.

  I removed the blog from notes and sent out a test post. So far everything looks okay. Unless you hear back, I assume this was the problem. Thanks for your help.
