   I recently set up a Facebook page to publicize our blog. I think I enabled this feature correctly at WordPress.com because my first post afterwards appeared just as I hoped it would: on Facebook my status update showed an image from the WordPress post, a blurb from the post's beginning, and a link to the post. So today I did my second post since enabling publicize, and nothing at all was posted to my Facebook page. I ended up just pasting in the URL myself. As far as I know I didn't alter any of the settings between my first and second post, so I don't understand why the publicize feature didn't work the second time.

   The blog I need help with is trekohio.com.

   1. Try flushing your FB cache but disconnect from FB first http://umairj.com/146/how-to-clear-facebook-shares-cache/
   2. Try the full reconnect procedure again detailed at http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-facebook including step 3 (removing the FB app), which is probably the most important step.

   Note: RSS Grafitti http://www.facebook.com/RSS.Graffiti can be used for posting to Facebook walls if you prefer. RSS Graffiti periodically checks the RSS/Atom feeds that you specify and posts any new entries it finds to the Facebook Walls that you specify. You can get any feed written on any wall (Facebook Profiles, Fan Pages, Groups, Events and Application Profile Pages). In fact, multiple feeds to multiple walls. You choose the combination.
