    In addition to posts in WordPress, I have listing pages like this /post-new.php?post_type=rtcl_listing. I tried using Jetpack Social https://jetpack.com/support/jetpack-social/social-sharing-new-posts/ with a custom post type on this page but I couldn’t find a solution. How can I share an existing post type like this /post-new.php?post_type=rtcl_listing with Jetpack Social?

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

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

    To share custom post types like /post-new.php?post_type=rtcl_listing with Jetpack Social, you’ll need to make sure that Jetpack recognizes these listings as sharable content. Start by checking if your theme or plugin registers the custom post type with public set to true, which is essential for Jetpack to detect it. You can also add custom code in your theme’s functions.php file to enable social sharing for specific post types. If this doesn’t work, consider using a plugin like WP to Twitter or another social sharing tool compatible with custom post types.
