The publicize function isn't working

    For the past several days when I publish a post it has been promoted simultaneously on my Facebook, Google+ and Twitter. Today, it isn’t doing it. I removed and reconnected the connection to Facebook and followed the instructions in the “publicize troubleshooting”. I republished the article several times. I wrote another new post and still nothing. Help please!

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

    1. Try flushing your FB cache but disconnect from FB first http://umairj.com/146/how-to-clear-facebook-shares-cache/

    2. (a) Try the full reconnect procedure again detailed at http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-services including step 3 (removing the FB app), which is probably the most important step.

    Note: RSS Grafitti http://www.facebook.com/RSS.Graffiti can be used for posting to Facebook walls if you prefer. RSS Graffiti periodically checks the RSS/Atom feeds that you specify and posts any new entries it finds to the Facebook Walls that you specify. You can get any feed written on any wall (Facebook Profiles, Fan Pages, Groups, Events and Application Profile Pages). In fact, multiple feeds to multiple walls. You choose the combination.

    Please note that reconnecting Publicize with Facebook and/or with Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. does not re-publicize missed posts, but it will work for future posts.

    Thank you for your response.

    I have tried the “reconnect” procedure in full more than twice and it has had no effect.

    It was working fine until today – nothing has changed. Is anyone else having the same issue?
