Without connecting my blog to my social accounts, they use @wordpress... when people click on the share buttons. Do you know of some other way to ensure they use my handle (@m_sabbath) when shared from underneath the post?

This is just another reason I never use automatic posting stuff such as publicize, not even on my client's sites. I have them use the share buttons below the posts after they publish the post. That way they are in control of when and if something gets posted on the social networks.

You could also try unchecking the services in the publish module in the editor window as described in the link I gave above.

I did this and it reposted about 5 of them to my social sites all at once.

However, now every time I make any edit to a blog, the blog is automatically reposted on all my social media accounts. I want to periodically add tags, links, etc. to past blogs, but not resend it via social media each time - this messes up my schedule of content. If I disconnect the social media temporarily to make changes, as soon as I reconnect, the blog is reposted on my social sites. How can I make edits without the system sending it to social each time?

I really don't even need auto updates to my social media, mainly I just want my name to show up when people share from my blog instead of it just showing @wordpress. Maybe there's a way to just do that?
