    When I publish a post through cron then posts are not being posted to FB. Post status is changed to publish now but it’s not posted on FB. Without cron it’s working perfect.

    Following code works without cron but not with cron.

    $my_post = array(
    ‘ID’ => $post->ID,
    ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’
    );
    wp_update_post( $my_post );

    I’m getting following response for that particular post.

    [2015-03-13 20:50:49] – [Skipped] [Facebook (MN)] – -=[Unchecked Account]=- – PostID:679
    [2015-03-13 20:50:49] – [Start =- ]- ——=========#### NEW AUTO-POST REQUEST PostID:(679) Automated ####=========——
    [2015-03-13 20:50:49] – [*** ID: 679, Type: event]- Status Changed: pending_to_publish. Autopost requested.

    thanks

    “Unchecked Account” simply means that checkbox in front of the account was not checked at the time you hit the “Publish” button.

    Please make sure it checked. Some functionality like excluded category, could auto-uncheck it.

    They both on the plugin settings page and on “New post” page.

    But I’m trying to post using a cron. I’m doing it in following way:

    I’ve few posts which I saved with status pending. I’m running a cron script to change statues of that post from pending to publish, then it is not being published on FB. But when I run this script manually then posts are being published on FB.

    Normal process is working properly. I mean when I publish a post using Publish button in a post page then it is posted on FB. So how can I check this checkbox in front of my account?

    You need to check it when you save with pending status.
