  “Twitter username to include in tweets when people share using the Twitter button”

  So recently my blog Twitter was @MMExpressway, and then I changed it to @TheMMExpressway

  It still shows as “Via @MMExpressway” which is the old one!

  I updated my new name with publicize, Twitter timeline, etc!

  I even put “Twitter username to include in tweets when people share using the Twitter” button as my new username: @TheMMExpressway

  But when I click share on Twitter, it still shows as MMExpressway, and not TheMMExpressway!

  Can someone help?

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

  So it’s impossible to change the original one? I don’t to create a new unofficial button.

  I think you ought to be able to change it by disconnecting Publicize and then reconnecting to the correct one.
