WP blog postings no longer updating to Facebook

  • Unknown's avatar

    For the last 3 weeks or so, notifications of my new blog postings have not appeared on my Facebook wall. My Facebook settings indicate that the WP app is installed and active. My WP posts are still set to automatically publish to FB. What do I need to do to re-establish FB posts? In case it’s relevant, FB just converted me to timeline, but I think that whatever they changed on their end was after at least one post was missed.

    Thanks

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

    See:
    1. 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.

    2. publicize troubleshooting http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#troubleshooting

    3. If neither of those work for you then RSS Grafitti http://www.facebook.com/RSS.Graffiti can be used. 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.

    4. That being said, the most effective way to promote your posts via social media and social networks is to post unique snippets and links manually to each site. We are drowning in an ocean of duplicated auto-posted snippets and links and by joining social networks we are, in essence, agreeing to be spammed by a select group pf “friends”. Well, these days people are becoming downright snarly about receiving identical impersonal robo-posted snippets and links posted across multiple social networks.
