Description

http://pcp.gc.cuny.edu
a commons site is currently using the Social plugin to broadcast tweets and fb postings, but since not supported, what do you recommend as a replacement?

Busra Unluonen, a student, has asked me to help her. She demonstrated how it no longer works.

I recommend using the Publicize feature that's built into Jetpack. Here's some documentation: https://jetpack.com/support/publicize/

Thanks for the heads up about the Social plugin. I'll make it unavailable for activation in the future. https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/4d0e38107df0c9043b9811c19e74f27f480b3262

Bursa points out that unlike Socialize, JetPack's Publicize does not allow for the broadcasting of events. Is there a work around?

I've just put a fix into place along the lines of https://jetpack.com/support/publicize/#custom-post-types. I'm unable to test this fully because the Jetpack integration is closely tied to the current user's wordpress.com account. Can your team verify?
