While I was editing my posts, I just happened to see ‘Xposts’ below the ‘Categories & Tags’ menu. I can’t understand what it is for and there is no information on the help page. Would you please help me understand everything about Xposts?

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

I also was editing when I saw this Xposts thing appear. I have no idea what it is.

OK-interesting. Xpost can mean cross-post to another site, but I’m not sure what it means here.

Hi sandeept252,

We have recently deployed a fix for this issue, so it should no longer appear.

Can you still see Xposts below Categories & Tags?

@gemmacevans – It’s now gone from my Calypso Post Editor.

Ok, thanks for letting me know jonchamps and rockandrosesmama. I’ll do some investigating and come back to you when I have an update.

It looks like the fix was still being deployed when we were discussing this, so that would explain why it was still visible.

jonchamps: I’ve checked my app and can’t see Xposts — would you mind confirming if this is the same for you now?

Thanks!
