  For the past two weeks, my WordPress.com posts do not get posted to my Facebook page. Before I post on WordPress, I always clear my history, including cookies and cache. Last week, I reinstalled my operating system, thinking the problem was with my computer. However, my post on WordPress last night once again did not get posted to Facebook.

  I have been blogging on WordPress for nearly two years now, and until last week my blog posts were posted on Facebook, then starting last week, they stopped. Can any one please help me correct this problem?

  Thank you.

  Hi,

  Have you tried to reconnect to Facebook?

  Sometimes, for various reasons, the permission to publish on Facebook will drop and need to be refreshed.

  Please let us know if this solves the problem. Cheers!

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

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

  3. See also publicize troubleshooting http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#troubleshooting

  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 does not re-publicize missed posts, but it will work for future posts.
