Reblog button has disappeared from blogs
-
I just noticed this morning that the reblog button has disappeared on my blog, too. I have confirmed that the reblog option is checked in Sharing Settings.
-
It seems that every change made to the WP user interface tends to drag the user away from their own dashboard to go through the wordpress dot com site. It stands to reason this is more conducive of advertising revenue than having the user work on a small blog that gets only a few hits per day.

Good news, it looks like we’ve been able to fix this, so the Reblog button should appear on your posts again. If you don’t see it, please clear your browser cache.
If that doesn’t work, or if you notice any new problems with the button, please let me know, and also please include a link to a post where the button appears/should appear.

Well done and sincere thanks, happiness engineers and the WordPress team in bringing back the smiles to us.

I can see the reblog button on other blogs, but not my own. Others can see it. There are several other blogs in which I have admin privileges as a help to other bloggers, and I can’t see the reblog button on those blogs either.
I cleared the browser cache. Still can’t see it but only on my blogs and those where I have admin privileges
Maybe there’s something where the program doesn’t think that bloggers should see “reblog” on their own blogs. LOL!

@blackbutterfly768 Just adding that I don’t see the reblog button on your site’s front page, but I do see the button in single post view.

Thanks, justjennifer. The same is true for my other blogs and those where I have admin privileges. I’ve followed all the instructions and they haven’t worked, so hope that a Happiness Engineer will look into it.

Do you see it here?

You should see the button on your own site, but unlike the other sharing buttons and the Like button, the Reblog button does not appear in the main posts page at https://blackbutterfly7.wordpress.com/. It only appears when you click on the post title to view a single post.
Please confirm if it’s also not sowing on the single post. In that case, check if clearing browser cookies, not just the cache, make any difference.

@justjennifer, thanks. I saw a couple other things on that doc that can also be improved, so I’ve added it to our list.

Thank you, Happiness Engineers, for restoring the reblog button.
One question: is the reblog button supposed to appear on a site’s front page and other pages? My reblog button appears only in my blog on single posts. If a Happiness Engineer could examine my blog, I appreciate it!

Thanks, again.

Hello @frankjtassone that’s the intended behavior. @kokkieh mentioned this in his reply at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/reblog-button-has-disappeared-from-blogs/page/3?replies=76#post-3076670

Hi. I hope it’s ok to comment on this thread. The reblog button has been missing on all my posts for some time.
