Description

Expected behavior

Calypso offers a "republicize" feature to Premium and Business plan owners that lets them share a post again after publishing it. (Details in the support doc.) You get to it from My Sites > Blog Posts > Ellipsis menu (for a specific post) > Share.

Here's how that looks on the web:

Other plan owners see an upgrade nudge there:

Actual behavior

Currently there's no equivalent feature for republicizing/resharing a post in the app.

Research direction

Start with the existing My Sites > Blog Posts > Ellipsis menu > Share flow and review the linked support document for the republicize behavior and plan restrictions. Implement an equivalent republicize or reshare path in the iOS app, including the upgrade nudge for unsupported plans, and verify the feature matches the web behavior.
