 * Hi there,
    we are trying to connect to the Facebook page, but the only thing 
   we get is this error message. We already disabled the plugin, tried to reconnect,
   even with a different user. But it doesn’t seem to work.
 * Any idea what might be the issue?
 * Thanks for your help!
    Mandy
 * “Facebook API Error: {“error”:{“message”:”(#100) Object does not exist, cannot
   be loaded due to missing permission or reviewable feature, or does not support
   this operation. This endpoint requires the ‘pages_read_engagement’ permission
   or the ‘Page Public Content Access’ feature or the ‘Page Public Metadata Access’
   feature. Refer to https:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/docs\/apps\/review\/login-
   permissions#manage-pages, https:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/docs\/apps\/review\/

   review\/feature#page-public-metadata-access for details.”,”type”:”OAuthException”,”
   code”:100,”fbtrace_id”:”XXXXXXXXXXX”}}
    Reconnecting to Facebook may fix the 
   issue.”

 * Hi [@007me](https://wordpress.org/support/users/007me/),
 * Sorry for the late reply.
 * Please update the plugin to the latest version 1.7.4 and reconnect your FB connection
   in each collection:
 * 1. Go to the integration of your admin FB profile [https://web.facebook.com/settings?tab=business_tools&ref=settings](https://web.facebook.com/settings?tab=business_tools&ref=settings)
 * 2. Delete the Widgetpack application
 * 3. Go to your wp-admin
 * 4. Delete all connected FB widgets and shortcodes
 * 5. Create new widget and shortcodes and connect your FB page(s) again.
 * Sorry, we must changed the API permissions in the Facebook API and this steps
   are mandatory to fix the issue.
 * Let me know how it goes.
 * Thanks!
