 * Yes, I can see the site is self-hosted. The screenshot you shared was from WordPress.
   com, so you must have somehow been redirected there. Perhaps as you created the
   connection to the Jetpack site?
 * However, it isn’t a problem because the site is connected and should be able 
   to use Jetpack Social now.
 * Let us know how you get on and if we can be of more help.

 * Hi,
 * I’m not entirely sure what took you to that flow on WordPress.com, but it looks
   like it’s related to transferring your domain there, which I don’t think you 
   want to do. I can see that docs.zoncircle.com is up and running, and you have
   a Jetpack connection, so you should be all set!
 * If you go to [https://docs.zoncircle.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=jetpack#/sharing](https://docs.zoncircle.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=jetpack#/sharing)
   you will be able to enable the auto-sharing feature (if it is not already) and
   there is a link to connect your social media accounts
 * I hope this helps, but let us if there’s anything else we can do.

 * Please do! The `_wpas_done_all` meta key will have been preventing you from editing
   the custom message, but the other post’s custom message may still be present 
   an the duplicated one.
 * If possible, it would be good to edit the post scheduled for Monday and see if
   you can edit the custom message for it. You could also delete the `_wpas_mess`
   key for the post, and that will have it use the default message.

 * Ah if it’s the same title being used for all posts, and they were duplicated 
   from that post, then it could indeed have something to do with it. We also have
   other meta values that ensure we don’t accidentally share posts twice. This also
   would cause the controls to be disabled, so my hunch would be that those meta
   values are being duplicated with the post.
 * On one of your scheduled posts where you can’t edit the message, if you could
   try looking for the meta value `_wpas_done_all` and if it exists, deleting it.
   I think that should help.
 * For a more permanent fix, maybe there is a hook which can be used to stop certain
   meta values from being duplicated, or there could be another post duplicator 
   plugin which would allow this level of control.
 * I hope this helps!

 * If you have LinkedIn connected, than by default the post will be shared to LinkedIn
   on publish, and unless you edit the custom message, it will use the post title
   and excerpt. You can clear the checkbox next to the connection to prevent it 
   being shared, there is also a filter you can use to disable the connections by
   default [publicize_checkbox_default](https://developer.jetpack.com/hooks/publicize_checkbox_default/)
   but I wouldn’t advise using that unless you are confident making changes to the
   code.

 * What are you removing from the database? You mentioned that helped solve the 
   problem in your previous response. Knowing more details here may help to diagnose
   the problem. The information used to share the post is stored in the post meta,
   but removing this after the post is published is unlikely to make a difference,
   as the process will have already been run to share the post to LinkedIn.
 * Could something else be sharing the post to LinkedIn? Do you have any other automations
   on the site?

 * From the screenshot, it looks like the LinkedIn connection is disabled. This 
   can happen when the connection is broken in some way. With no available connections
   the ‘Custom Message’ field is disabled too.
 * > I have tried to remove it in the orignal post
 * Has the post already been shared? If so, then the controls will be disabled because
   it can’t be shared again from the classic editor.
 * You could try reconnecting LinkedIn [https://cloud.jetpack.com/jetpack-social](https://cloud.jetpack.com/jetpack-social)
   and then checking if you can edit the message on a new draft post.
 * I hope that helps, but let us know if you’re still having any issues.

 * Hi [@nikov](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikov/)
 * I spotted this message and thought I’d let you know that you can create connections
   to multiple Facebook pages, but the interface is a little hidden.
 * While you are managing your connections you can click on the arrow to the right
   of Facebook and it should expand and reveal your current connections, along with
   a button to connect another account.

 * We don’t support groups currently, but as [@deathlynotes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deathlynotes/)
   says, if you make a feature request, it could be something that we’ll add in 
   the future.
 * Thanks
 * Paul.

 * > Thank you again for these details. It seems that this can be done with the

 * That’s exactly how it’s done in the Yoast plugin. You can see it being set up
   in the code here:
 * [https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/blob/87e407ca153285ecef4c0b6f46837338812df88a/js/src/edit.js#L122](https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/blob/87e407ca153285ecef4c0b6f46837338812df88a/js/src/edit.js#L122)
 * I’m not sure how up to date it is, but there’s this tutorial I found on setting
   up one of these sidebar blocks, that might be of use:

 * I had a site that suffered from this problem and despite upgrading my default
   region got set to EU when I only had a domain set in the US, so everything silently
   failed.
 * Could it throw some sort of error in these situations so the site owner is aware
   of it? Better that than someone missing orders in their Woocommerce site – which
   is what happened in this instance.
 * Thanks for all your work on this plugin though, it’s great!
 * Cheers,

 * Ok, great! I’m just doing some work on the low and no stock notifications (there’s
   another thread I’ve started about that as it looks like the implementation is
   changing), then I’ve just got to tidy up the admin interface for it, and it should
   be good to go.

 * Funnily enough I’m working on a plugin to do almost exactly this but with fabric
   quantities as there are varying widths the fabric is sold in, but it’s all off
   the same reel so I want the variations stock to be linked to the parent product.
 * I’ve tried a few solutions including the measurement calculator plugin which 
   looked promising, but eventually I was told it couldn’t do what I wanted. Might
   be worth you checking that out though.
 * Alternatively, if it’s not urgent I’ll happily share my code with you once it’s
   done. I was going planning on sticking it on GitHub anyway.

 * Sorry, missed your reply! Did you fix this? You might need to update your permialinks.
   Just got to the settings page (wp-admin/options-permalink.php) and click save.
 * Also check the settings on wp-admin/options-general.php As the URL might be set
   in there. However, that’s what’s stored in the database so if you’ve run the 
   search and replace it should have picked that up.
