 * I have created an app on my facebook page and also installed the plugin. I have
   taken the facebook page id, app id and app secret and input into plugin.
 * When i run without an access token the plugin appears to work but says there 
   are no events. I have been on to facebook developer and got hold of the access
   token and manually input it. This seems to work for a while until i log out of
   facebook or leave it for a while.
 * Any ideas?

 * if you get the access token manually it will be invalid when you logout. need
   to get the access token from the widget by clicking the button in the widget 
   settings.
