  I made the connection to Facebook and it was confirmed. When I create a new post I do not see the the different Publish Box (with a reference to editing the FB message).

  Your WordPress.com blog isn’t yet connected to Facebook. Could you please follow the steps at the link below and let us know if it doesn’t work?

  When I try to connect to Facebook I receive this reply and cannot proceed:

  “You have successfully connected your WordPress.com blog with your Facebook account.”

  Hi, your site is loading as connected properly when I check it. This is the screen I saw when creating a new test post:

  Below “Publish immediately” you’ll see a “Publicize” option with just Facebook selected. Can you try loading that at Posts > Add New in your Dashboard?

  Thanks, it’s working now. I won’t try to analyze it. I appreciate the very prompt response.
