ReBlog buttons all missing
-
Suddenly, today, there are no reblog buttons—none on my own blog—none on all the other posts I bookmarked to reblog…
Many of my bookmarks are from sites I’ve reblogged from before; it’s just that suddenly, today, the reblog button is not at the top of ANY sites…
What’s up???
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
Is there anyone there?
I had another wordpress blogger respond in the comments on my blog that she was also missing the reblog button…
She also didn’t have the like button; though my like buttons are still there…
Is anyone working on this problem???

WP removed it from the top black bar when adding the “new” Action Bar. See this post: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/action-bar-feedback?replies=18

So that new “Action Bar” has no option for re-blogging…
Does this mean that re-blogging is no longer a WordPress option?!?

You’re welcome, timethief. I asked a similar question on that thread. I believe it is related to the “new” Action Bar as the “Like” button is also missing from the top Admin bar.

No it means you need to enable the official buttons on your sharing page and enable a reblog button when you do.

Also, from staff: https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2015/08/26/new-action-bar/#comment-223478
WP is “working on some changes to reblogging.”

The Forum thread with staff involved is this one: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/action-bar-feedback?replies=21
The other is WP’s blog post on the “new” Action Bar, commenting there is heavily censored and moderated, so your comment may or may not ever show up. https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2015/08/26/new-action-bar
Sorry I didn’t make that very clear in my other comment.

Why direct bloggers to complain in that thread that may not be responded to by designsimply until tomorrow, when I already provided what can be done above to enable a reblog button at the bottom of pages and posts in the here and now?Bloggers want solutions now and I provided the solution for amzolt above at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/reblog-buttons-all-missing?replies=13#post-2454172

Oh I’m so sorry. I didn’t realize that and I do apologize most humbly to you. I ought to have checked your blog but I did not. I do not choose to enable that reblog button on my blogs. -

No problem, timethief. WP said that they are “working on some changes to reblogging.” I believe it’s a temporary thing that the Reblog button is missing. Maybe WP will add it to their “new” Action Bar, I don’t know.

So, timethief, WordPress doesn’t proactively tell us what’s happening—we have to subscribe to the Staff blog?
Are all proposed changes revealed on that blog?
