Publishing to Facebook–Refresh Problem
-
I am having the same problem and delaying publishing until we hear from WordPress there is a fix. Have tried all the solutions noted here and still broken.

Yes, I tried unhooking and rehooking which usually works, but not this time. Problem I think is on WP, but I’m no expert.

same here and it is totally frustrating and no response from WP?? No wonder people are migrating to other blog hosts or to hosting their own

I checked on this, and I noticed our developers made one small change related to fixing a malformed refresh link for Facebook publicize just a few minutes ago, but I’m not sure yet if that will also fix the other issues you guys are describing.
Could a couple people please try following the reconnection steps one more time (even if you have already tried them before), and let me know any pertinent details if you’re still having trouble after that.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-facebookIf you can find any details about exactly what links are broken or have a 404 error or the steps you’re taking and where the process fails including error messages if you see any, that would be super helpful!

If possible, can you please try going to Settings > Sharing and disconnecting from Facebook, then reconnecting and see if that fixes the problem?
The changes we made over the last few days are related to a change in the way that Facebook handles the connection information between remote services (like WordPress.com). It looks like some users’ connections haven’t been converted over to the new way as smoothly as we’d hoped, but reconnecting should fix the problem.
Please let us know if that’s not the case.

Seems to be fixed now, at least the UI says so, I will try and publish again tomorrow. Thank you!

Didn’t work for me.
I followed the instructions above: disconnected from Facebook from the Settings>Sharing page, then reconnected.
Went to make a new post, and the same message people have been reporting above was still visible.

I was having an issue where it would post everything to my main profile and not my website’s Facebook page like I had specified. I just disconnected and reconnected, so we will see if it continues to do it.

Seems to be solved for me. “Your Facebook account is now confirmed. Publish away!” Hurray!!! and thanks. :)

@msmusicmaker – check the options on the Settings>Sharing page, under the Facebook icon. When you click on that it comes up with the linked Facebook accounts, and you can then choose which one your posts are directed to.

beau’s instructions worked and the message has gone. but my Facebook page used to display a couple of lines from the posts but it doesn’t now, it only displays the title and the link.

I had this problem before WordPress told me to basically re-authorize the connection between wordpress and facebook … basically disconnect and reconnect again … it took a time or two if I remember but it worked !
