    Hello,

    So, I activated the publicize option from Jetpack and had been working for descriptions. But not always. Sometimes it writes the custom message I wrote, but sometimes it just writes what’s on the article from my blog.

    Why it’s doing that and how to fix it? I repeat. Sometimes it write what I want, sometimes not.

    My website is: https://www.ajay.ro

    Could you give me some examples, so I can take a closer look at the data saved for those posts in Publicize?

    Thanks!

    Ok, for example I write this post:

    hello, my name is Leo, nice to meet you.

    and in the custom message

    custom message

    I want to post that^.

    Sometimes it shares on the facebook the message I want in the custom message, but sometimes it posts what’s in the post.(hello, my name is Leo, nice to meet you.)

    I don’t know how to explain it better…

    Thanks for the extra details.

    sometimes it posts what’s in the post.(hello, my name is Leo, nice to meet you.)

    Could you share some screenshots of a post where that happens? For that post, could you share a screenshot of what got displayed on Facebook, and a screenshot of the Publicize box in your dashboard?

    Thanks!

    That message doesn’t seem to be customized. It’s the post title. Could you try entering a custom message there with your next post? As long as you enter a custom Publicize message, it will be used instead of the automated post excerpt.
    If you don’t specify a custom Publicize message, a post excerpt will be used instead.

    I hope this clarifies things a bit.

    You see, when I don’t write anything, I expect to share on facebook the title, but it shares the post excerpt.

    That’s correct; when you don’t write anything it shares an automated excerpt.

    If you’d rather share the post title, I’m afraid you’ll need to customize the Publicize message each time.
