When Publicize shares my posts it uses two links. One is a Bit.ly link and the other is the normal URL. Also, the Bit.ly link it creates doesn’t recognize my Permalink settings. I previously used Social from Mailchimp which didn’t have this issue. It only started happening when I switched to Jetpack’s Publicize.

Here’s an example: https://twitter.com/GabrielNovo/status/618408036923629568

2 links in the tweet back to back.
Bit.ly points to https://gabrielnovo.com/?p=1171
Second link is the normal Permalink.

These are all posts scheduled to go live at a later date. When they do publish Bitly shows a second link that points to the correct Permalink URL.

My website is https://gabrielnovo.com

Could you let me know what happens when you deactivate the Bitly Shortlinks plugin you’re using on your site?

I can deactivate Bit.ly Shortlinks (from Yoast), but there’s a bit of code that goes along with it.
```
/**
 * Settings for Bit.ly Shortlinks Plugin
 * https://yoast.com/wordpress/bitly-shortlinks/
 **/
define('BITLY_USERNAME', '<your username>');
define('BITLY_APIKEY', '<your API key>');
```
Do I need to delete that as well?

No, you don’t need to delete that, no worries.

Ok. Plugin disabled. I have a post scheduled for tomorrow morning, so I’ll let you know how it goes.

Alright, one link only on the Tweet and Google+ post. It was the Permalink not the Bit.ly link.

Since it appears that my Yoast plugin is broken, what would you recommend as a Publicize friendly Bit.ly link generator?

I’m afraid there is no such thing right now. We’ll need to improve Publicize to bring the option to use shortlinks back. You can follow our progress here:

I’ll also post again here as soon as I have some news!
