This conversation has been merged. Please reference the main conversation: IMDB ratings not being shared in Facebook

As of today the really nice feature of sharing my IMDb ratings to Facebook no longer works. Nothing shows up on my Facebook page if I rate a movie.  I didn't touch any of my settings and my IMDb is still linked to my Facebook account  In addition to that my entire history of ratings on my Facebook wall is missing. I've been sharing my movie ratings for the past year so needless to say I am very angry about this. Please look into this and get this fixed.

Exactly, I tried reauthorizing, but it does not work. All of my +500 posts on Facebook from the past couple of years have gone missing and ratings are no longer posted automatically on my Facebook wall. 
This was also a problem some years ago, and it worked to rate through the iOS IMDb app. I am not in possession of an iPhone, but ratings do not appear using the Android app nor from the website.

Due to Facebook policy, IMDb will no longer automatically post Watchlist Adds, Ratings, and Check-ins to users Facebook accounts.

Users may continue to share and like movies and people on IMDb and those will be posted to their Facebook account as before

There was an option before to turn it on, this wasn't enough ?
Guess I'll be copy pasting my review to my checking and my Facebook share in the future...

At least give us an option to connect it with Twitter so after we post something on Twitter it will be posted on FB too...

So, posting the ratings automatically is not allowed anymore. Fine, add a share button so I can do it manually. But, why were all my old posts (ratings) including lots of comments deleted from my Facebook timeline? That's really not OK. I guess they are gone for good or is there a way to get them back?

Trevor, this isn't true. My friend's ratings still show up on IMDb; every time he rates a movie, it is posted to his wall automatically. Here is one from 6 hours ago today. I asked him what he did to fix the issue and he said nothing, it has worked the entire time. It's broken for some of us and not for others, and we need IMDb to fix it, or tell us how to fix it. It is not disabled by Facebook, as you can clearly see.

That looks like he just shared it to Facebook. It looks different from the posts when it shows up on your wall automatically.

if all that you said there is true, this would mean that Rotten tomatoes cant either get the ratings posted? Well, i just tried and its true, you cant get ratings posted on your wall not even with Rotten Tomatoes! Shame.. I liked it too... Don ́t really understand the harm this can do...
