  Is there anything wrong with your facebook api?
  It has been more than three days, I tried many times to check “Authorize connection with Facebook” link and edit publicize list,
  but finally the checkbox of facebook became unchecked automatically.
  Please help me to fix the problem, thanks a lot!

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

  I’m sorry your are experiencing this. Sometimes, the connection between Facebook and WordPress.com might get disconnected. I’m not clear if you have tried the the reconnection process or not? If not here’s the link to the instructions > http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-facebook

  I’ve been having this issued also. Wonder if it is a facebook issue because I have had two FB apps fail me because I use them to post severe weather info.

  Have you posted to Facebook support?

  Everybody, thanks for the replying!
  I have fixed the problem by myself and it seems a bug of wordpress.

  In My Blog/Dashboard/Settings/Sharing, you can see Publicize status,
  click the link “Disconnect with facebook”,
  the next time you want to publicize your article to facebook,
  you will be asked to connect with facebook again, and it works!

  I think it means that if the connection is out of order, you must disconnect it manually,
  not by clicking “authorize connection with facebook” again,
  and the disconnect function can be only found in My Blog/Dashboard/Settings/Sharing.

  How to publicize the post to FB when you have disconnected.
  FB publicize option is not available in post when disconnected.

  If that doesn’t help, could you please clarify your question?

  I’ve been in n out of all kinds of threads regarding publicizing problems, and the thread I’m pointing at hits the spot of my problem. Since airodyssey asked me to clarify, I clarified.

  Understood now. Have your tried any of the three alternatives I provided in that thread? Networked blogs or RSS Graffiti or getsocialive ?
