   I managed to link my WordPress blog (http://%5Bemail redacted]) to my Facebook profile, but my WordPress blogs only show up on my Facebook wall and are not distributed to my friends or on the news feed. I tried resetting my Facebook connection, but I'm not prompted with anything that lets me expand my Facebook distribution. And I can't find anything within Facebook that lets me share the WordPress posts that appear on my Facebook wall. Any thoughts?

   The blog I need help with is englishcompost.wordpress.com.

   That's perfectly normal and there is nothing you can do about it if you continue to use Publicize.

   Facebook has decided it doesn't like roboposts. It wants content to be posted by hand, by a real human being. So when it sees something autoposted like that, it downgrades it. It will never show in your friends' news feed. Your friends can see it if they go to your wall, but not otherwise.

   The solution is to disable Publicize and post the link by hand.

   What makes you think I'm a real human being? ;)

   Thanks for the input time and and rain. One FB friend is seeing my posts in her newsfeed, even though I don't see it it mine. I've also been checking the FB forums, but haven't come across any relevant posts or help pages. I'm going to do a little more testing with other friends' newsfeeds and then post manually if I have too.

   It's about time. I sick of seeing the same link and snippets roboposted ie. spammed to multiple sites.
