AutoPublished Link to Post is incorrect

Hi @michaelw_dc,

Can you let me know the full details of what you are sharing, so this includes the share message, the URL and also a screenshot of the post in LinkedIn or ideally a link to the post in LinkedIn so I can check this out and try and repeat it?

Thanks,

The URL that was being shared was this one: https://www.ruraltransformation.org/blog/policy-brief-equity-in-federal-housing-and-community-development-funding-a-proposal-for-a-national-floor/

It was posted to this LinkedIn company page:
https://www.linkedin.com/company/ruraltransformation/

NOTE: When the content editor noticed that the URL was incorrect, he manually changed the post on LinkedIn, so you cannot see the problem now.

Hi @michaelw_dc,

And you are saying the share message was:

“Policy brief: Equity in Federal Housing and Community Development Funding: A Proposal for a National Floor – https://lnkd.in/dupTB7i system Congress uses to disburse federal housing and community development dollars is deeply unfair, despite their efforts. Poor rural communities in poor states lose out because of a flawed, one-size-fits-all income limit structure. As a result, thousands of families are not eligible for the same level of critical services and supports as their counterparts in rich states.

The Partners for Rural Transformation know these areas are full of hard-working people and of leaders who, when equipped with the proper resources, revitalize communities. The current system references targeting people and communities encountering the most economic distress, however, when a whole area experiences overwhelming concentrated poverty, that system breaks down and an inclusive approach to community revitalization is needed. What if the country increasingly thought about national economic policy as intentionally prioritizing this revitalization, which would advance the economy of persistently poor rural America while maintaining important …”

What I would suggest is try doing a new share using the plugin and see if it happens again. I don’t know what the issue might be, and haven’t had any other reports at this stage. Thanks,

They state that they will be posting something this afternoon or on Monday. I’ll try to let you know when they do, but I might not be notified quickly enough, and you might not be available soon enough to take your observations, before they fix it manually. So, I will try to get in and copy the markup that is posted to LinkedIn when it goes live.

A new post was just published, and both the Twitter share and the LinkedIn share have the same incorrect URL. They’ll probably fix it soon, but you might be able to see it live if you happen to be around. Regardless, here are the relevant URLs and supporting documents.
