  Hi

  I hope you can help. Couldn’t find a solution on the Internet or in the wordpress community forum / support pages.

  On my blog when I click on the “share this” twitter button a pop-up shows the text to be tweeted and the link and at the end “via @JHanselmann”. This is the wrong address.

  No matter what I try it will not change. In the sharing settings of my blog my correct twitter account @DscheyH is already put there.

  Please change it permanently so that “via @DscheyH” will appear.

  Many thanks in advance. Much appreciated.

  Do you currently have your blog set to automatically Publicize to Twitter?

  If so, which account have you set it to Publicize to?

  Did not work, still JHanselmann.
  I am just trying a workaround with a custom service… hold on.

  Yes, the workaround with the custom service works now for me.
  Found it here: http://tweetpluslike.wordpress.com/2011/11/14/how-to-add-a-tweet-button-with-your-twitter-username-into-wordpress-com/

  Perfect.

  Thanks, anyway for your fast help.
