Hi!
Confirm: has the same issue.
Facebook – 4 failures – Received HTTP response code: 403 Forbidden
Hello!
I’m not sure what the problem is.
It might have to do with the API quota allowed by Facebook, and if the site is on a shared server then maybe it’s possible another use with the same IP address has already reached the quota for the API.
If anyone can debug this, the plugin tries to make an HTTP GET request to the following API endpoint, which in this case is returning the 403 error:
https://graph.facebook.com/fql?q=SELECT%20url,%20share_count,%20like_count,%20comment_count,%20total_count,%20click_count%20FROM%20link_stat%20where%20url=%27http://www.ww.wp.xz.cn%27
Hello again, please try updating the plugin to version 1.5.0 and see if Facebook is able to collect data. I have changed the way that the Facebook data is collected in this version.
There is also now a page under
Social Metrics > Configuration > API Connection Settings
Which will let you pick between two different ways to retrieve data from Facebook. Let me know if this fixes the issue or not.
