[Plugin: Facebook] Blank screen upon publishing a post

    I am getting a blank white screen after publishing a new post with this plugin enabled. When I disable the plugin this error does not happen.

    Also, I have yet to see my posts actually appear on my Facebook fan page, so perhaps these two issues are related?

    For what it’s worth, I have other Facebook related plugins installed on my site, but they are all deactivated.

    The site is hosted with Blue Host, and I read in another thread about some possible problems with their servers and curl, which is necessary for this plugin to run correctly.

    I’m not positive exactly what’s going on, but any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Just want to note that I tried using a different plugin called “Add Link to Facebook” (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/add-link-to-facebook/) and it appears to be working fine for me.

    I’d rather use this plugin, as it appears to be the definitive Facebook plugin moving forward, but for the immediate time being I’m sticking with what works.

    It’s possible that the lack of curl is the problem. I’ll be debugging this soon to figure out what is going on there.

    Yes, I wanted to say that this is happening to me, too. I’ve been trying to post to see if it’ll post to FB, but it is not.

    I also get the blank page after a new post to publish. I’ll press enter again at the url bar and it will go thru and end up at the “all posts” dashboard. It does publish to the blog. I will also notice that my Focus keywords and meta description are gone. I would have to go back in to the post and redo all the seo work again.

    Once I update a second time, I have no issues of a blank page.
