Cancel share is not working

problem
#1

I have clicked on cancel share several times to unshare the story but it is not working.

I have tried to cancel it from the menu in my feed list and in my blurBlog. But it did’t work in either case.

Wait, what? What’s the cancel share button? I’m either having a brain fart or you’re discovering code that I never intended to launch.

If a story is already shared

Right click on in. Click on “Shared”

Then click on cancel share

It won’t have any affect.

Now from your reply, I understand, cancel share is for making the share dialog box go away and not removing the shared item. But the idea I got from the text “cancel share” on an already shared item was: it will cancel the ‘share’ or remove the ‘share’.

1- How about having a way to remove the shared item?
2- If an item is already shared, the “share” button in the share box (see image#3) would change to “update comment”. Because that’s what it is actually doing - updating the comment. The item has already been shared.
3- “Cancel share” can be renamed to just “cancel”

I am pretty share cancel share would be confusing for everyone. Even you said:

What’s the cancel share button?

Yeah, I’ll just rename it to “Cancel”. But it does work as intended. A real unshare is coming, although it’s not at the top of my list for obvious reasons. If you’re wondering, today’s goal is editing replies. And that’s already a big goal, since I’m expecting to announce big news today and that’s going to take quite a bit of my time.

Sounds good to me!
