reblog button has disappeared!
-
It is now not present on the top bar on any of my several WP sites. Where did it go?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Note this as well please > Sharing > Customizing Sharing Settings
Reblog & Like allows you to choose whether or not to display the reblog and/or like button alongside the sharing buttons. -
As it’s possible Staff have removed the reblog link from the Admin bar, I tagged this thread for a Staff response. Please subscribe to it so you are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

The staff were quite proud of Reblog – so I can’t see them turning it off, even though the Reblog feature was not universally liked by many bloggers
It does make sharing things quicker and easier

Hmmm well my reblog button in admin is ticked to “show” but no worky!
In Admin?
Exactly which location are you referring to?
Do you mean that you enabled the official buttons and reblog link in the sharing options like the top image here?

So why the change from Top Nav Bar to “Action Bar” – who the heck knows what an “Action Bar” is??
-
Well those of us who tested it voluntarily know what it is. Read about it here https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2015/08/26/new-action-bar/

so I can fiddle with the way my site looks – have not done that in years, happy with my theme, and the “Edit” goes to the Blue Death Editor that no sane person uses – so a total waste for me
-
My remarks were to the link you left about the “Action Bar” that is now in the bottom right corner of my screen
The Reblog is missing – and like another person in another thread you answered, Reblog is enabled on my site but there is no button for that function anymore.
Had a Post I was going to Reblog this morning – I had to do things the old fashioned way – copy some text & a picture, scale the picture – then work the text to get it tighter and reduce the word count well below Fair Use – then added some of my own text to replace two of their paragraphs – fair amount of work given how painful writing is for me – but in a way a bit of a blessing in that I think I ended up with a nicer Post on my site than a straight Reblog would have been – and yes there is a prominent link to the full original article

So I guess then WP doesn’t want us to reblog? Ummm is this some kind of govt conspiracy? lol

My reblog button in “share” is ticked to “show” but disappeared.
When I read a blog I follow, the FOLLOWING button and the REBLOIG button are now gone
