  I just published a post (The American Dream) which hasn’t shown up in Facebook or LinkedIn.

  However, I set the post to do so.

  Can you help?

  Thanks!

  Hi Craig,

  I don’t see anything in our systems which would indicate why it wouldn’t have successfully made that connection, however sometimes publicize can get disconnected and in order to fix it you have to completely sever the connection and then re-connect it.

  If you could follow the directions included in this help article:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-services

  For both Facebook and LinkedIn and then let me know if your next post has the same troubles. If it does, let me know which of the editors you wrote the post in (our new one or the original one which you get to from within your Dashboard), I’ll see if I can’t track down what is going awry!

  Thanks for the response.

  I am aware of the procedure described as I’ve done it before, when WordPress indicated to me that the connection had been severed.

  That said, this hasn’t been indicated in my recent posting activity. The post prior to the one in question (The American Dream) and today’s post BOTH went to Facebook and LinkedIn with no problem. As such, it seems it was a fluke that occurred on 10/4???
