As a follow-up, I should have mentioned that this is an issue with sharing a website post with a Facebook page rather than a personal account. My personal account is the owner of the page and this have previously been working fine. There is a manual workaround, but not using AddtoAny share buttons, and involving much more effort.
This is also an issue for me.
This is happening to me as well for past many weeks.
Is this just not an issue that is going to be addressed?
Yeah – does being top of the Active Topics list mean something will happen? Perhaps Facebook have changed something to block the AddtoAny Share Buttons, but it would be really good to get some kind of response.

This does seem to be a larger issue with Facebook and sharing via a URL to Facebook pages (not personal profiles).
Correct, this is not an AddToAny issue — Facebook sharing issues never are.
Here is Facebook’s sharing endpoint in action:

The plugin has a helpful FAQ on troubleshooting your site’s issues with Facebook sharing.
Note that Facebook has neglected link sharing for years after half-assing a redesign — users can’t easily share to Pages, Groups, etc. like they used to.
Thanks giving us the plugin developer’s assessment, micropat,
It’s a shame – it was working quite nicely up until about a month ago.
It still shares OK to individual accounts, just not to pages or groups. We can work around it, but our site visitors may not go to the extra trouble.
All the best,
Andy.
@andy-sussex can you tell me how did you work around to share on pages or group ?
Bonjour, Y a t-il eu une évolution depuis 5 mois pour partager facilement sur une page Facebook svp ? Quand je clique sur l’icone Facebook, ça ouvre le partage sur ma page puis ça n’aboutit pas, ça tourne, ça tourne ! Existe t’il une méthode pour facilement partager sur Facebook svp ? Cordialement
Bonjour, Suite à ma publication précédente, le bouton de partage Facebook (articles, pages, produits…) fonctionne très bien sur smartphone, à partir de mon site, ça c’est bon à savoir. La question reste entière : pourquoi le bouton de partage Facebook ne fonctionne pas à partir d’un PC svp ? Cordialement,
Hello, Is there responsive support or not please ? Or is there no one there? Perhaps support is on holiday on Mars ?

Sadly, the issue sharing to Facebook isn’t a plugin issue… it’s a Facebook issue. There’s no known workaround.
