Publicize randomly posting old posts

Since last update (4.2.2) Publicize still sends updates (to twitter and linkedin in this instance) on new posts, but also tweets and posts random old posts from several years ago., several hours after posting the latest post.

Vantage theme. No other sharing plugins active.

Turned publicize off then activated again. No difference.

Site is http://nearlylegal.co.uk

(A housing law site, before anyone gets anxious. Long story)

Sorry for the trouble!

Could you give me some examples of the posts that got publicized? Can you think of anything notable about those posts? Were they imported after the site was created? Were they published before Jetpack got installed on that site?

Hi

I’ve deleted most of the tweets/linkedin updates, but this one went to linkedin yesterday,

http://nearlylegal.co.uk/2013/08/job-ads/

after I published this new post

http://nearlylegal.co.uk/2016/08/points-mean-no-prizes/

Nothing notable about the posts – just random old ones. The whole site was exported and imported to a fresh install but that was about 9 months ago. I don’t think they were pre-jetpack install.

And there was this one

publicized after a new post on 29 August 2016.

It appears to be different posts on linkedin and on twitter too.

Thanks for the extra details. Does this happen only when you publish another post, or at random times?

Apparently not – I thought so as seemed to happen a few hours after a new post, but yesterday and today, two old posts were publicized to twiyter and linkedin when there were no new posts published at all.

These two

So it appears to be daily, regardless of whether there are any new posts.
