WordPress – Publicize – Face-book

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi – I post on a regular basis to my WordPress Web/ Blog site (www.melanomamole.co.uk) and want to automatically post basic comments to my Face-book, Family, Friends and WordPress Contacts (Group) a comment letting them know a new blog post has been created. I know that my site connects to Face-book as I have previously received an automated post to my Face-Book profile. The issue is that I can not get it to work for groups, family, friends. I believe this is somehow linked to WordPress Publicize.
    Any assistance / advice appreciated
    Paul Watson.

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

    From the admin section of your site click on Settings, then Sharing.

    Click on Connect if you have not yet linked a Facebook account (or Add New if you have). This will let you pick to post to any Facebook your account has access to.

    Chris – Thanks for coming back so quickly.

    I am able connect / disconnect, but the drop down option only allows me to pick / post to my personal FB account.

    Was expecting for the list of Groups and Friends to be visible and selectiable.

    Hi!

    Groups only show up if your account has admin access to those groups.

    OK – have 1 WP user (prwatson9) set as Admin, and 1 WP user set as Follower, Created FaceBook group called FaceBook Contacts (Under my FB profile).
    I assume I have to have my WP account (prwatson9) set as admin / super admin (how ever that is done ?) and to create all my FB contacts set up as users in WP. So am confused as my WP account (prwatson9) is set as Admin but FB groups are not showing as selectable.

    My site is http://www.melanomamole.co.uk or http://fromthereandbackamolestale.wordpress.com/
