Facebook Problems

Are other writers experiencing problems posting Blogger/ Blogspot links to their Facebook timeline/ profile/ page?

This morning, I became aware that my links and a number of other writers' links were producing the following error message when you try to post the links to Facebook:

Upon further inspection, I've found it's only blogspot.co.uk links Facebook is blocking, and Blogger.com links seem unaffected.

The work around I've found to enable you to share blogspot.co.uk links on your Facebook timeline is to do so via share button, like the one I have on the top of my posts.

Is anyone else experiencing similar problems?

I've contacted Facebook support and let them know blogspot.co.uk shouldn't be blocked, and isn't spam. Hopefully, if enough people complain, they'll sort it out.

  1. Yes I've just found the same problem and contacted them... well annoying, and only a recent things, as it's always been fine in the past! Kerry

    1. Hopefully a number of people contacting them will make them change things.

  2. I've been having a different Facebook problem. It started last night and continues this morning. I can't post, like, share, or expand a list of comments. I can't view any of my groups. I tried logging out, but now it won't let me back on.

    Guess I'm going to have a Facebook-less day.

    1. That's not good at all. The only work around I've found is having a share button. There should be one on the blogspot navigation bar, just left of the search box. It gives you options to share on facebook and twitter.

  4. I'm having the same issue, Clare.

    Not only can i not post new Blogspot links, but all my previous ones have vanished from my timeline. Which is irritating.

    1. It sounds like a lot of people using blogspot.co.uk are having this problem. Facebook really need to resolve it.

  5. I solved my problem (or at least I think I did) by wiping out my browsing history on Google Chrome. I don't know what that had to do with it, but I googled "Facebook Chrome Problems" and this is what came up.

    It's working again, for now.
