 * I love the new functionality with 2.0, but I’m still having problems with posts
   showing up on Bluesky inconsistently. My first standard post after enabling 2.0
   cross-posted, but [the second one](https://www.canneddragons.net/2026/07/10/5437/),
   a shorter, “status” message, did not. I updated it to a standard post and it 
   still didn’t publish on Bluesky. 
   I got a message in the post panel saying:
 * Sharing to Bluesky failed. Update the post to try again.
 * <small>Failed to decrypt refresh token.</small>
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Finconsistent-post-visibility%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey [@rockafire](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rockafire/) 👋
 * I already added some re-tries for 2.0 because of your last feedback, but that
   does not seem to have fixed your issue. I will try to run some more debuggins!
   Can you maybe provide me a list of plugins you have to installed aside of the
   ATmosphere plugin?

 * The “Failed to decrypt refresh token” message means the WordPress security keys(
   salts) in your `wp-config.php` changed after you connected to Bluesky, the plugin
   encrypts its Bluesky tokens with those keys, so when they change, the stored 
   tokens can no longer be read. This is usually caused by a security plugin that
   rotates salts on a schedule (e.g. Solid Security’s “change salts” feature), or
   by a host/migration regenerating `wp-config.php`. Could you check for that? In
   the meantime: disconnect and reconnect your Bluesky account on the ATmosphere
   settings page, sharing will work again until the next rotation. If a plugin is
   rotating your salts, disabling that scheduled rotation will fix it permanently.
   I’ll also look into showing a clearer “please reconnect” message for this case.
