The WordPress Reblog Button Mystery…

During the last few days, I’ve noticed that when I want to reblog posts, either:

  1.  The Reblog Button doesn’t work, OR,
  2.  After persistently pressing it, it eventually works, BUT,
  3.  It takes up to 10 minutes, a LOT of searching through my Admin – Posts – Published section, to actually FIND and UPDATE the reblogged post.

WordPress are obviously making ‘enhancements / improvements’ and still trying to catch all the gremlins they accidentally let loose during the process – SIGH…

If you are finding the same problem, or, you follow a notification link to someone’s reblogged post, please be patient, do not delete the notification, but keep trying until it finally appears.

    • Often the reblog button is just not there when I try to reblog….and the other thing is what (I think) Sally alluded to…and that is, I sometimes can’t post at all. One of the most common messages I’ve been getting is “your URL is too long” (it never was before…and now I can’t remember whether I got that message only when I tried to post using my FB icon, or if I got it regardless how I tried to log in, I think the latter). Anyway, none of my URLs were ever too long before! And now it will be interesting to see if THIS post goes through lol

  1. This has been doing my head in for weeks. There is no pattern that i can discern. I have the Wordpess app on my Iphone, and the reblog button doesn’t work. I access on my Mac, doesn’t work. Sometimes. Access at work on Chrome, sometimes works. I logged out this morning, then it became available on one site, but not others. This post, for example, I can’t reblog on IOS, but can on my PC at work (Chrome).
    Grrr. I have read some awesome blog posts that i would love to share, but can’t. So it’s not just me?
