[resolved] Test post is successful, actual posts are not (5 posts)

    I just installed the latest version of the Facepress II plugin, and am trying to set it up to send posts made on my site to my Facebook page. I got my unique page update email and put it in the PAGE email box.

    I clicked Test Facebook Connection, and the test was posted just fine. I deleted that test update from my Facebook page.

    Then I wrote a post and published it, but it did not show up on my Facebook page at all.

    I clicked Test Facebook Connection, and it successfully added another test update to my Facebook page.

    Does anyone know if I'm doing something wrong?

    Okay, I figured it out after going down the list of FacePress II settings one more time.

    I didn't have anything in the "Categories to Include/Exclude" box. I assumed that if I left it blank, it would include ALL categories.

    I just had to put in the ID numbers of all my categories and it seems to work now.

    What if my categories do not have ID numbers, just names and slugs? I put in the slugs, then realized that the hyphens would probably be interpreted as minus (exclude.)

    There are many ways to find the category ID number, including entering your domain followed by /?cat=1, but I opted to just enter "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27, 28,29,30" into the include field.
