  When I use the publicize feature, my blog post gets promoted on Facebook with in the following way:

  – Message I manually entered in publicize
  – First paragraph or so of my blog post (unformatted, as part of the Facebook post)
  – WordPress banner and image linking to my post

  How do I get rid of the second item? I just want my message and short link to appear in the post, not the first part of my blog.

  Thanks!

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

  You don’t use Publicize. You post it manually.

  You can try editing the excerpt, but there’s no guarantee FB will pay attention to that: https://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/excerpts/
