    Just one: Change your Profile so that the site linked to your name is your WordPress.com blog. We can't help with other forms of WordPress here.

    1. Log into your WordPress.com blog. Go to your blog’s dashboard -> “My Blogs” -> uncheck “Facebook” under “Publicize”.
    (On the “My Blogs” page, make sure you’re looking at the correct row for the blog in question.)

    2. Reload the page and confirm that the Facebook checkbox is unchecked.

    3. Lo into your Facebook account. Go to “Account” (upper right corner) -> “Application Settings”. Remove “WordPress.com” by clicking the “X” in its row. (If there is no WordPress.com row, don’t worry, just skip this step).

    4. Log *back* into your WordPress.com blog. Go to your blog’s dashboard -> My Blogs -> *reclick* “Facebook” under “Publicize”.

    5. Wait for the popup appear that asks you to “Authorize connection with Facebook”. Click that button.

    6. You’ll be taken to Facebook and asked to “Allow” several pieces. Allow them all.

    Hello.

    I do have the same problem with all of my blogs. Also on my second wordpress acoount did not get connected.

    Funnywise on one blog it worked...

    I did not find the "system" behind the mistake. could just be, that I connected and disconnected too often... maybe the computers involved are blond... as I am.... )))

    If you are running into trouble with the Facebook option for Publicize not connecting properly, please run through the steps Hanni outlined above.

    Also having the same problem. I've gone through the above steps 3X and still the next post says that I need to authorize Facebook again.

    Must be a bug of some sort?
