 * Regarding Jetpack publicize –
    I just updated the latest update for Jetpack. 
   There is a box to check if I want to post to facebook. When I posted/published
   last week I had no problem. Now I cannot post/publish to Facebook my latest post
   on 4/16. Can you help me? It worked well up until this latest update.
 * My website is makeminelemon.com if you need to check it. It is a food blog. My
   latest was pasta, but if you go to Facebook it is last weeks post.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * I need to amend my previous request for help. I noticed on my draft posts I am
   able to check the box to publish on Facebook – previously it was a default setting.
   However, regarding my latest post that I have published it did not post to Facebook.
   When I went back in to try to edit it, I am unable to check the box. I tried 
   to place it back in draft form and then try to edit, it still will not allow 
   the correction. I hope this make better sense. Any advice will be appreciated.

 * Jetpack Publicize only works for newly published posts, so you won’t be able 
   to go back and use Publicize with a post that was already published.
 * If, however, Publicize is not triggered for new posts either, could you try to
   reset the connection by following the instructions here:

 * You used to be able to send a second update to facebook if a post was republished,
   I dont get why this feature was removed

 * Also, I think it’s broken. I already submitted a support request but I cant get
   it to work on any of my sites. Maybe facebook changed something, this used to
   happen all the time with the facebook page publish plugin too
 * Actually, for some reason it’s sending all of my page updates to my personal 
   profile. I’ve disconnected and reconnected and it still does the same thing

 * If you want to send a second update to Facebook, you will have to use the sharing
   buttons, or post a new update on Facebook manually.

 * Could you try to completely reset your Facebook connection by following the steps
   here? It’s important that you delete the WordPress.com app on Facebook as well.

 * Ok, I thought it was just me. I rechecked and reset my Publicize/Facebook connection
   per your suggestion. The drafts seem to work so I guess I will just wait and 
   see for next week.
 * Do you know of a way to get this one already publicized post to Facebook or is
   it just a wash for the week? I have people that just read my fb and only click
   over if it is something they like.
 * Thank you for your responses and the feedback.

 * You could do it “the old fashioned way”, by using the sharing box on your Facebook
   Page, and pasting the post URL there.

 * Thank you Jeremy. Nothing like a glitch to make me feel inadequate. Facebook 
   hates me. lol.

 * I’m experiencing the same problem as igneous where posts set to go to a page 
   are going to my personal profile. I fully reset my connection between the problematic
   blog and Facebook twice and set the selector to post to my page, and it is still
   posting to my personal profile. Looks like a bigger glitch to me…

 * [@cajames](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cajames/) We indeed experienced
   issues with Facebook Publicize yesterday. The problem should now be fixed.
 * If you still experience issues, could you start a new thread and let me know 
   your site URL so I can have a look?

 * Hello,
 * When I first downloaded the JetPack plug-in, my site was under the temporary 
   URL. However; now that the site has gone live I am not sure as to how I can change
   the URL to the permanent one. As of now, publicize is forwarding my published
   content to an inactive page and email subscriptions are also being forwarded 
   to this link: [http://69.195.124.100/~hiphopf4/hiphopflucom](http://69.195.124.100/~hiphopf4/hiphopflucom).
 * The correct link is: [http://hiphopflu.com](http://hiphopflu.com)
 * Please assist.

 * Jeremy,
 * Don’t laugh, but I learned to manually insert my post to Facebook – I had avoided
   Facebook until my followers ask for it. I love your Jetpack because it saved 
   me one more step. It seems I understand WordPress and the plugins better than
   Facebook. So I am good to go for now that is if Facebook would just stop plotting
   against me. lol

 * What am I missing? I am unable to check the box to automatically post to Facebook
   when I publish a post? After my last problem, I was careful to see the box was
   checked. This worked after my last conversation with you, but now it is back 
   to the same issue. Only this time I tried to check the box before I published,
   but was unable to do so. I manually posted to Facebook, but I really like to 
   have the option to automatically post while publishing.
 * Any help will be appreciated.

 * Publicize only works with newly published posts, so you may run into issues if
   you use a plugin to clone or copy posts.
 * If that’s not the case, could you try to reset your Publicize connection, as 
   explained here:
