    LOVE THIS PLUGIN, but I seem to be experiencing the same problem others have already posted about. Rewrite & Republish – auto post for FB & Twitter + Jetpack email subscribers GET 404 ( i did look through ever post i could find, but never found the answer )

    For Ex: The original link is
    https://spellcasting.biz/mermaid-mummy-found-and-scientists-are-astounded/

    Email subscribers are getting this link
    https://spellcasting.biz/?p=2571

    It is the same for FB & Twitter
    https://spellcasting.biz/?p=2571

    Here is the twitter post

    Facebook says
    SPELLCASTING.BIZ
    Page not found – Spellcasting Biz

    i see someone posted about 3 weeks ago about this and have not even received any type of reply. This is a big deal, love the plugin – but, FB, Twitter + Jetpack email subscribers getting a 404 is a big deal.

    Hope to get some sort of reply, any help will be greatly appreciated!

    WOULD APPRECIATE A REPLY PLEASE !!

    Doing everything i can on my end
    so i contacted Jetpack to see if they could help with this issue
    here is what they had to say

    you are using the Yoast Duplicate Post plugin alongside Jetpack Social’s auto-share feature. so, it may be that the two plugins are not compatible to use in this way, but it’s not something that we would be able to investigate in detail since it involves another company’s plugin. I suggest that you contact Yoast’s support team.

    And thats what im trying to do. Any advice, answer, insight or support would be greatly appreciated – Please help

    we’re sorry for the problem you are experiencing.
    We’re looking into that, can you tell us if you noticed that it started after updating JetPack, and if so, do you know to which version?
    Thanks in advance, we’ll keep you updated!

    I have just installed plugin when i made this post, so i dont know

    but here is the info

    Jetpack
    Security, performance, and marketing tools made by WordPress experts. Version 11.3.2 
    
    Jetpack Boost
    Boost your WordPress site's performance, from the creators of Jetpack. Version 1.5.1

    Also Jetpack support has went above and beyond to address this issue
    here is a rundown from them about the issue
    from jetpack support team

    Hey there,

    Thank you for your patience and detailed replies. Here’s a timeline of what’s happening behind the scenes.

    You publish a brand new post. WordPress assigns this post an ID of 1

    Publicize is told by WordPress that a post was made. It takes the URL it was given and shares it to your social sites.

    You come back later and make some edits to the post

    You click Rewrite and Republish

    You make your edits, then change the date to tomorrow

    You click Schedule Republish

    Yoast creates a brand new post with the same title and content as your original post. WordPress assigns this post an ID of 2

    Yoast tucks away the original post until it’s time to republish. At this point, your visitors are seeing the post with an ID of 2

    Tomorrow comes and it’s time to republish

    Yoast pulls down the temporary post (2), edits the original post (1), and publishes it.

    Publicize is notified that a post was published. It takes the URL it was given and shares it to your social sites.

    Everything is done at that point. Now when WordPress publishes a site, it formats the URL via your permalink settings. This changes the URL from https://examplesite.com/?p=1 to https://examplesite.com/helloworld/. The real URL is still ?p=1 for the post with the ID of 1, but you get to use the more readable version instead.

    What’s happening here is that in step 7, Yoast created a new post with the ID of 2. When it comes time to publish the next day, Yoast is somehow passing along the https://examplesite.com/?p=2 URL. WordPress takes it, passes it along to us, and that’s what we publish. We don’t get the ?p=1 URL again, nor do we get the /helloworld/ URL. We can only share what we’re given, so the ?p=2 URL is sent to your social media sites. Meanwhile, Yoast has already swapped out the posts so the temporary post with the ID of 2 no longer exists. Because it was deleted by Yoast, when people follow the ?p=2 URL they end up at the non-existent temporary post, which gives a 404 not found error.

    Ultimately, even with a paid plan, it won’t fix this issue. If Yoast is still installed then it will continue to share that second post instead of the first. To find out why it’s sending that post to WordPress you would need to talk to the Yoast support team. It’s a third-party plugin so we don’t provide any support for it, nor do we have access to any of their code or tools. As long as Yoast sends up the correct URL then you should be good, but right now that’s not happening.

    Hopefully this clears things up a bit.`

    let me know if you need anymore info,
    but more importantly – let me know something/anything

    i really appreciate your reply
