Revive the posts that resonated the most with your audience by re-sharing them with your audience on your selected social platforms. Recycle your evergreen content by automatically re-sharing your previously published posts.
To re-share a post using Jetpack Social, the user performing the share must be connected to a WordPress.com account. This is required even if a shared social connection is already set up on the site. If the user is not connected, the share attempt may fail.
You can connect your account by going to Jetpack → My Jetpack and clicking Connect under the Connection section.

- Open the published post that you’d like to re-share.
- Bring up the Jetpack menu by clicking the Jetpack in the top right corner.

- When you’re ready to share, find the Share to Social Media section and enable the social accounts where you want to re-share your post. They will all be disabled by default.

Re-sharing posts with the Classic Editor

See Using Blocks and the Classic Editor for instructions on moving from the Classic Editor to the Block Editor.
