  I blog at nothingpost.wordpress.com. When ever I post my blog automatically on FB through publicise it shows from : iVolunteer instead from : Nothingpost.

  I don’t know why this happens.

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

  Hi Rahul,

  This is likely just a caching error on the Facebook side. Basically, Facebook has stored data that isn’t updating correctly. If you take a look at the information we’re sending Facebook (referred to as meta tags), you can see that we’re sending the right info. You can see that here:

  https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fnothingpost.wordpress.com%2F2014%2F09%2F25%2Fthis-bachhus-is-not-a-bacchu%2F

  The important part is here:

  <meta property="article:author" content="http://nothingpost.wordpress.com/author/nainwal/" />

  The author of the post should read as nothingpost.wordpress.com, not ivolunteer. Since we’re sending the correct info, there’s really not much we can do here except wait for Facebook to correctly update over time.

  One thing I would suggest is to make sure the primary blog is set within your settings here:

  https://wordpress.com/settings/account/

  I’m sorry I’m not able to be of more help!
