 * I recently got kicked out of my facebook account because of a bad image on a 
   page I control. Facebook forced me to reauthenticate. All my application connected
   via facebook required reauthentication. When I tried to use the new version of
   your plugin I got this error.
 * Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Facebook\Exceptions\FacebookAuthenticationException’
   with message ‘Error validating access token: The session has been invalidated
   because the user has changed the password.’ in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas04_data02/

 * It seems it fails completely if FB authentication fails and there is no way to
   re-login again.

 *     ```
       SELECT * 
       FROM  wf_options
       WHERE option_name LIKE  "instant%"
       LIMIT 0 , 30
       ```
