Title: Problem with jetpack publicize Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Problem with jetpack publicize * [LordZed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lordzed/) * (@lordzed) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/) * Hi! I’m using “Jetpack for WordPress 3.0.1” and the Version 2.3.0 of this plugin. I’ve been reading in another thread, that the problems with the publicize feature and this plugin working together should be solved. * I tried to create a blog post and publicized it to google+ and facebook. On both I’m not getting the bitly-link but the full link. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-bitly/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-bitly/) Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * [Mark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/delayedinsanity/) * (@delayedinsanity) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/#post-4999712) * Thank you for taking the time to start a new thread, I appreciate it! * I’m going to open with a stupid question, so I apologize in advance, but is the plugin generating any shortlinks at all? When you click the “Get Shortlink” button on your edit post screen, is it returning a Bitly link? * Thread Starter [LordZed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lordzed/) * (@lordzed) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/#post-4999724) * Yes, the button and the bitly-shortlink are shown after I clicked “Save” or “ Publish” * [Mark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/delayedinsanity/) * (@delayedinsanity) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/#post-4999737) * Well, not such an easy day for me then. 🙂 Can’t say I didn’t try. * Are there any other plugins that may even remotely be interacting with the shortlinks/ permalinks in any way? * Here’s an odd experiment, if you’re game. Could you try installing v1.0.1 and see if that works with JetPack? I’m pretty positive I learned my lesson on what happened there, but just out of curiousity… * Thread Starter [LordZed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lordzed/) * (@lordzed) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/#post-4999782) * With 1.0.1 I didn’t even got the shortlink generated. I reupdated to 2.3.0 and created a post again! * You can see the publicized post at Google+ here: [https://plus.google.com/103918084373134469653/posts/65SvSDsmQeg](https://plus.google.com/103918084373134469653/posts/65SvSDsmQeg) And here’s the generated bitly link: [http://bit.ly/1l90haB](http://bit.ly/1l90haB) * [Mark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/delayedinsanity/) * (@delayedinsanity) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/#post-4999809) * That’s new. The other people were having issues with it pulling the “internal” shortlink (the same as if you had no rewrite rules set up, using the query string). Yours is actually getting the rewritten permalink. * My current answer is: ummm. * My next suggestion, again if you’re game, is to see if you add the following to a post or page template (whatever you have authorized to generate Bitly links, could be a custom post type, etc): * `` * Is the resulting link a Bitly link or the same as what you see on Google+? * Thread Starter [LordZed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lordzed/) * (@lordzed) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-jetpack-publicize/#post-5000019) * Hi! I added a comment in the template, so your code is displayed after the tag!

Perhaps they see that the bitly-Link is givin a HTTP Response “Permanently Moved” so they show the new link… * I just decided I don’t need shortlinks ^^ Too much problems, to less advantages to me at the moment!
