publicizing on facebook
-
It’s a page. I don’t know what you mean by a page belonging to a personal account.
If facebook is not allowing publicizing for pages shouldn’t those instructions be removed from wordpress so we don’t all get frustrated??

It’s in the support doc:
Troubleshooting
Static pages will not be publicized.After connecting/re-connecting the services, you will need to publish a new post in order to publicize it.
If you see the message “Error – See Support” (see image below) after connecting to Facebook, there is a problem with the Facebook account being used. Only Facebook Pages that have an associated Profile can be used with Publicize. Follow the Reconnecting Facebook steps above and connect to a Facebook Profile that has administrative rights to the Page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#troubleshooting

it’s listed on the support page. WordPress just added their little addendum though.
Facebook Pages
If you would like to Publicize your posts to your Facebook page, instead of your Facebook profile, click on the “Set Options” link underneath Facebook on your Settings -> Sharing page. You will need to connect your blog to Facebook first. You will need to use a Facebook account that has a Profile with administrative rights to the Page.
but whatever. wordpress needs to be better with their support. they could have easily cleared this up and replied back saying it was not allowable instead of just letting everyone fiddle with it. if they insist on not letting anyone contact them directly, they should at least be more attentive to the forum.

I am still having issues with Publicize. I am connected to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, LinkedIn & Yahoo. When I look at the list of sites that I want to publicize to and that I am connected to, only Twitter and Tumblr are checked off on the list. FB, LinkedIn and Yahoo are unchecked. I check them, update the post and still the posts will not link with those sites and they are unchecked again.
Publicize was working fine up until three months ago and I don’t know what is causing it.
You help is appreciated.
Thank You. -
I’m having problems with publicize and scheduled posts. Although the publicize box is checked when I schedule the posts, they are not pushing to Facebook upon being published. I have to manually go in and update the post by checking publicize again and then they are finally pushed over to FB. Page is set up associated with a personal profile (but posting to page) and appears to be connected normally. Can anyone help?
