  Hi, I went to share my latest post online this morning and posted the shortlink https://wp.me/pW697-22y and I get the message:

  Hmmm… can’t reach this page

  The connection was reset.

  Try:

  • Checking the connection
  • Checking the proxy and the firewall

  ERR_CONNECTION_RESETRefresh

  Posting the full link works – https://turningoverpebbles.wordpress.com/2025/05/23/wear-your-passion-a-tribute-to-stuart-farrimond/

  I’d be grateful of any help. Thank you.

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

  Those shortlinks work fine for me, so it must have been a temporarily glitch … Note a lot of brtowser or firewalls don’t like those shortlinks as they could lead to harmfull sites
