 * Hi,
 * I have followed the steps to manually authorize the Facebook feed. After enabling
   the feed, FB returns the following error:
 * >  Access to this data is temporarily disabled for non-active apps or apps that
   > have not recently accessed this data due to changes we are making to the Facebook
   > Platform. Learn more here: [https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/03/cracking-down-on-platform-abuse/](https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/03/cracking-down-on-platform-abuse/)
 * Can’t use the plugins authorization either as it keeps on returning the ‘Application
   request limit reached.’ error.
 * Thanks
    JP

 * Hello, please try to re-create FB app. As for our app, check this doc [https://docs.social-streams.com/article/133-facebook-app-request-limit-reached](https://docs.social-streams.com/article/133-facebook-app-request-limit-reached)

 * Hi, unfortunately it doesn’t work to create a new app.
    You can create the FB
   app, but as soon as you enable the feed, FB returns this error message:
 * >  Plugin received next error message from network API for this feed:
   >  (#200)
   > Access to this data is temporarily disabled for non-active apps or apps that
   > have not recently accessed this data due to changes we are making to the Facebook
   > Platform. [https://developers.facebook.com/status/issues/205942813488872/](https://developers.facebook.com/status/issues/205942813488872/)
 * I realize it’s a FB issue and not a flow flow issue though.
 * Thanks

 * Hello, Facebook has changed privacy rules for apps after serious data leak. Using
   of own applications have more limitations now and can be deprecated in future.
   Please use our app for authentication [https://www.dropbox.com/s/i10uigid8ihnhwj/2018-04-16_20-31-43.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/i10uigid8ihnhwj/2018-04-16_20-31-43.png?dl=0).

 * Hi Oleksandr, I do but there are two problems with that one:
    1) There is a request
   limit. I have seen this error quite a few times: ‘Application request limit reached.’
   error. 2) It needs re-authentication every once in a while. That’s totally fine,
   but I only see the warning when I am logged in to the website and visit the page
   with the flow flow stream.
 * What do you think of the idea to send an email to the WP admin when one of the
   feeds runs into an error (including the error you also see in WP)?
 * thanks

 * I just received the following email from Facebook about the Facebook App that
   I created to get an App ID and Secret for the sync Events addon.

 * Do I really need to start approval? Or is this something that will be taken care
   of by an update of the plugin? If I do have to start the submission process, 
   which features and permissions do I need to select for the plugin to work again.
   These are the choices:
 * >  Select the items you want to include in this submission
   >  LOGIN PERMISSIONS
   >  business_management groups_access_member_info manage_pages
   > pages_manage_instant_articles publish_pages publish_to_groups read_insights
   > read_page_mailboxes user_age_range user_birthday user_events user_friends user_gender
   > user_hometown user_likes user_link user_location user_managed_groups user_photos
   > user_posts user_tagged_places user_videos

   > Content Access Groups API
