  When I schedule a post the publicize function does not work automatically. I have to log back in after the post is up and then the notices will show up on whatever social site I specified originally. This happens on two different blogs and any/all social sites. I’ve disconnected and reconnected accounts without any improvement.

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

  Hi Oden,

  After looking into your account, I found that there were no Publicize connections associated with your site. Please connect to Publicize by going to Settings > Sharing in your Dashboard.

  Once those are set up, make sure that the Publicize connections are checked off in your Scheduled Posts by clicking Edit next to Publicize in the Publish Module.

  Please note that we are having some issues with the LinkedIn connection; however, the other connections should be working.

  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

  I’m not sure what you looked at; I have three set up – Facebook, Google + and Twitter. And I do ensure that they are checked off when I schedule a post.

  As I mentioned in my post I did delete them and reconnect them early yesterday morning without fixing the issue.

  Hi Oden,

  I am looking at the Dashboard of the blog: coathalia.wordpress.com. As you can see in the screenshot below, no Publicize connections are enabled:

  

  If you are looking at another blog, please let me know and I’d be happy to look into it.

  Cheers!

  I can’t see the url in that shot. I’ve included a link below to the view I see (with address showing for you).

  Hi Oden,

  I see it now! When you schedule a new post in the future and can you make sure all three connections are checked? Then, once it publishes can you let me know if it’s still not working?

  I just tested it out on my test blog and found that it was working. I scheduled a post and tested it with a Facebook Publicize connection.

  Thank you for all your patience!

  My 1:42 post did work today (LinkedIn & Twitter). I have another scheduled at 2:02, we’ll see if that goes through. Thanks!

  Hi Oden,

  I’m glad to hear it! Please let me know if your 2:02 post does not appear!

  Cheers!
