    I have installed jetpack successfully and assumed I could link to my facebook profile
    when trying to link it asked for a page to link to. I then created a page and linked successfully to it.
    If convert my Facebook profile into a Page would I then be able to link to it

    Thanks

    Hi @redhillbowls

    I don’t have direct experience converting a profile to a page and am unsure of the potential benefits and/or drawbacks of that approach. Theoretically, it should work as Jetpack can post to Facebook Pages but not Profiles.

    I’d suggest reviewing the documentation here to ensure that the resulting page would meet the criteria:

    Hi thanks for reply

    One odd thing that is happening is as follows.

    after writing a post on wordpress it then shows on my facebook page so I tried a post with an image, that worked but now every new post I place on wordpress shows on facebook with the same image as my first test (when viewed on the wordpress site it does not contain the image)
