Before the community dismisses this - this is not a repeat of other issues with the Facebook submission process. Were a non-profit looking for help getting this running.
We have many articles on our website but we are not able to get them to appear in https://childmind.org/feed/instant-articles
I am not able to see where you instruct the FB Instant Articles WordPress plugin which content you want to publish e.g. our articles aren't in /blog but rather in /article e.g. https://childmind.org/article/adhd-behavior-problems/
Everything else is configured seemingly properly. Does anyone have an idea?
After we get articles in the feed, we can submit for review.
NOTE: We have edited and saved articles to "trigger" them being added but has not worked.
Articles sound like a custom post type which you need to manually tell the plugin by using a filter for your CPT.
add_filter( 'instant_articles_post_types', 'add_post_types', 10,1 );
function add_post_types($post_type_array){
array_push($post_type_array,'post'); // Standard post "blog"
array_push($post_type_array,'articles'); // The name of your custom post.
return $post_type_array;
}
This should then get pull the articles for the feed as long as everything else has been set up correctly. Taken from a post on the WP Plugin forum.
Note: Also, Facebook have their own validation process once you get this working before you will start to see them on Facebook.

I'm creating a wordpress plugin in which i want that if new post is published the notification gone on another page of same wordpress website.
Thanks
There is a few ways todo this. But I would do it this way.
When you create a post, you add a post_meta to that post that tells that this page is new.
Then you have an cronjob or something that is running an wp_query that are searching for all posts that have that post_meta. And when it finds the new post/posts it either clear that post_meta or set it to false.
And then on the page that you wanted to display it somehow, use that cronwork to update that page or something like it.
Hard to describe more when I don't know what that other page should do with the information about the new post
This is in a way a followup of this question : Jetpack Publicize: Sharing only on Twitter for a category
I am currently working on a website in which one of the category only serves as a way to curate news on the net and then, share it on the front page and on Twitter.
The post itself is empty, I use a custom field to receive the URL from the user, grab a few things from the target website, update the permalink and save. Upon saving, SNAP publishes the post on Twitter.
My issue is that it is not using the permalink but the url of the post itself (which is absolutely empty). Having a look into the plugin's code, I saw that it was using post metas (most notably urlToUse, snap_MYURL) but couldn't determine if it was a priority issue or something else.
I also try to adjust my code to set these meta values to the url I want, to no avail.
Is there a way I could set my custom functions or the SNAP plugin so that the permalink is used ?
No answer after a week, neither here nor from SNAP's support. No problem.
The ugly patch I used :
Jetpack Publicize for all the Twitter updates
SNAP for the Facebook ones thanks to their ability of posting based on a specific category
It's bloated and I'd love to understand but, sometime, you have to ship
This seems like a simple question but can't find an answer anywhere online.
I have a Wordpress site that, whenever a post gets published, pushes an email out to feedburner subscribers. Very straight forward.
My question is, I need to change some of the posts to privately published so I can test some new stuff and I dont want subscribers to get an email to an empty post.
Can someone lead me to somewhere where it explains what gets pushed and what isnt?
I'm assuming it wont but want to confirm.
I need to change some of the posts to privately published
If that results in the posts not being in the original public
wordpress feed, then there's no way for feedburner to get them.
So view the wordpress feed in a browser window where you are
not logged in to your wordpress account.
However, if you've set your Wordpress feed to have eg.
the 50 latest posts (the maximum), and a post that you make private
is within the those 50 , don't be surprised when Wordpress then provides
the 51st post to Feedburner, which may get re-emailed.
I've just made a Wordpress blog, where I'd like to use Facebook Comments plugin. The plugin itself looks to work perfectly fine (I can log in, switch accounts, post a comment etc.), though when a comment is posted, it doesn't appear in author's FB News Feed or Activity Log ('post on facebook' box checked).
See example
Could you please let me know what could be the issue here?
WP 3.8.1
Plugins:
Facebook
Facebook Open Graph Meta Tags for WordPress
Edit:
So I use a Bliss by Bluth Company theme currently, which has FB social plugins implemented (including Likes and Comments), but I've also tried using Facebook Comments plugin from developers.facebook.com generator. The result is always the same - comment in posted on the blog, but it never appears in FB news feed or activity log.
Since I'm unable to post a pic here, I've put in on imgur.com - the comment on the pic never showed up in my FB AL, neither any of my FB friends has seen it.

I want to publish the same post which I just published in the worpress blog to blogger & facebook automaticaly. I know it possible and there are various plugin out there. But cant find one free to use plugin which do this.
I used a 'network publisher' plugin. Its free for facebook by need to pay if we want to add another on like blogger or other. But its working good for me in facebook
Now I am really worried what to do for my blogger to get automatically posted from wordpress.
At last I got the blogger (.blogspot) to get my post automatically from the wordpress.
The blogger can be configured to post via email. There in the blogger account we have to create a secret email address in the setting tab
format look like this - name_of_the_site.secretcode#blogger.com (so that a mail send to this address will automatically posted in the blogger)
And then in the wordpress install a plugin named CROSSPRESS which do all the required stuff
where simply put the email address and the signature which we want to show underneath each post.
Test it by creating a new post and publishing it. You will get the same in blogger
DONE......
It is now possible to post directly using Blogger API (since 4 weeks)
I think you just have to wait a plugin that integrate this feature.
Here is the API announcement : http://code.blogger.com/2012/06/blogger-api-v3.html
Simply set up Blogger and Facebook to get your Wordpress site RSS feed. Look at Blogger and Facebook for docs on how to do that.
Cross post seems to have issues in that line breaks don't get carried across properly and it seems to generate ASCII character 160 in a few random places as well at the moment.
