Publishing to Facebook–Refresh Problem

When I created my blog post on May 14, publishing to Facebook and LinkedIn went seamlessly. The one I created today did not. Before I published, I got the following message: “If you would like to continue publishing your posts to Facebook, please refresh your connection before publishing this post.” So I tried to do that before I published the post. But when I clicked the link to “Refresh,” nothing happened. I checked that my blog is still “connected” to Facebook, and it is. I have no clue what to do next.

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

Actually, I shouldn’t have said nothing happened. I got a blog page saying what I was looking for couldn’t be found!

I had the same problem except it opens a 404 page on my WordPress site and the Chrome browser warns the page isn’t safe.

So do we need to escalate this to SCARY PROBLEM?

I just got the error 404 as well after discovering that all my posts have disappeared off FB. Haven’t checked LinkedIn but wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve gone too. What is going on?

And please make it stop. WordPress worked just fine the way it used to be before all the tweaks. What in hell are the devs doing and why weren’t we informed that these horrible updates were going to happen before they messed everything up?

Oh good then, it’s not a problem on our ends. I was beginning to worry I screwed something up.

Have the same problem … driving me crazy – and no support to be find at WordPress.

Oh, and just if someone from WordPress wonders, I did the “Reconnecting Facebook” procedure. It didn’t help.

And it’s not a browser-problem, it doesn’t work in Firefox and it doesn’t work in Chrome.

Facebook frequently makes changes at their end. If you have tried the reconnection process and the troubleshooting tips and they do not work you will want to check for known issues at Facebook and also check your privacy settings there. Alternatively you may want to try RSS Grafitti. RSS Graffiti periodically checks the RSS/Atom feeds that you specify and posts any new entries it finds to the Facebook Walls that you specify. You can get any feed written on any wall (Facebook Profiles, Fan Pages, Groups, Events and Application Profile Pages). In fact, multiple feeds to multiple walls. You choose the combination.

Me too. Repeatedly. I logged out of both WordPress and FB and still the same error

Did you go to Facebook and check for known issues at that end of things?
