RE: Publicize and Share – Why is it when a feature is working beautifully, as intended, and the user is extremely with the results – why does something quirky have to happen and the automated process get screwed up? I publicize and share my blog posts to my Google Plus profile and page. Have done it several times. The displayed results looked wonderful! Until today. WHY????

BEFORE: Blogs posts came through the interface including a description, tidbit and Google Plus even picked up and applied an appropriate hashtag.

TODAY or AFTER: DId the same thing I always do when preparing and publishing a post. But the description did not come through and the hashtag was not applied. Links to examples below so you can view what I’m talking about. I’m not doing anything different from what I have always done, so … what happened to this awesome feature??? It was working just fine!!

(AFTER – Today) https://plus.google.com/106809090625750066200/posts/dQAEM3jh8zw

(BEFORE) https://plus.google.com/106809090625750066200/posts/CYDQP9tUTkF

I am not aware of any changes made to the Publicize app here at WordPress.com http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#google-profiles-and-pages Are you sure there have been no changes at the Google + end of things?

I changed this to RESOLVED. Now today it’s showing as not resolved. I don’t know why I had a problem with that one post. All the other posts are showing up just fine now. Now I’m confused as to why the status here in the forum didn’t change when I marked it resolved. (O.o) I’ll try it again!

It looks like this is related to the size of the image in your post. The two links that looked okay both have larger, particularly wider, images.

Let me know if I can help with anything else.
