Can you clarify what “7.0.5 beta” version is for? Is that the WordPress desktop app, your Edge browser version, or your version of Windows?

If it’s the app version, please let us know the following:
– Windows OS version (XP, 7, 10, etc.)
– Edge browser version number

Once we have that information, we’ll be better able to advise. Thanks!

That should be fine, but the beta releases are for testing and not guaranteed to be stable.

Would you please see if you still have trouble after fully deleting that and re-installing the stable version? https://apps.wordpress.com/desktop/

Thanks for the additional information. It sounds like you might be impacted by a bug in the app that other users are experiencing in the web browser. Since a Reblog technically creates a new post, it does fit this particular bug.

You can follow along with the status of this bug here:

https://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso/issues/53100

I’ve added your specifics to the issue as well.

In the meantime, you will need to use the Edge browser for Reblogs until we can get this fixed.

Let us know if you have any questions in the meantime.
