Hi Jeremy, thanks for your reply!
Unfortunately I have been a very impatient boy (I had been looking for solutions for some time prior to posting thw issue here) and decided to do away with Jetpack’s subscription altogether (still using other Jetpack elements to full satisfaction, mind yoy).
I now use a subscription form included in X and have set up a MailChimp account to manually mail all my subscribers when I post a blog -I post once a week at the most and have set up a mail template, so that isn’t much of a hassle.Once again, thanks for your reply; hopefully others with the same problem come across your suggestion and try it out!
Sure, though I must warn you it’s a bit clumsy. But it works.
First, I set up my entire post in VC/Backend Editor, only saving as draft.
When the preview is to my liking, I switch to Classic Mode, so that it shows the naked ugly code. I ctrl-X ctrl-V all the code to Word.
Then I stay in Classic Mode and erase most of the post and set up a simplified version of the post in the Classic Mode -I basically just keep the Featured Image and the text, without worrying about lay-out and stuff, as the rest won’t show in the Facebook post anyway.Then I hit Publish.
Before anyone will actually read the post on WordPress, I clear the entire Classic Editor field again and copy-paste all the code I saved in Word earlier. Then I hit update and all is well.
Like I said, it’s a clumsy, Neanderthal sort of solution, but it gets the job done. And once you get it in your system, it isn’t as complicated as it may sound. 🙂
I hope this explanation is clear enough. If not, feel free to ask or comment.
Thank you for your reply. I really had been searching pretty hard (I thought) but couldn’t find this known issue anywhere -so either it’s not all that known, or it’s extremely known, to such an extent that nobody’s talking about it. 🙂
Anhoyhow, I’ve constructed a work-around protocol for this issue, so I’ll manage. 🙂
