    After following all the instructions, the plugin cannot proceed with the Authorization and so, it cannot work at all!
    The error message that I get from Facebook is this:
    “Invalid Scopes: publish_pages, user_posts, manage_pages. This message is only shown to developers. Users of your app will ignore these permissions if present. Please read the documentation for valid permissions at: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions”

    What my be wrong?

    As per new Facebook platform product changes and policy updates

    Apps in public mode no longer allow their admins, developers, or testers to access permissions or features that normally require app review. This affects all apps built after May 1st, 2018, immediately. Apps built before then will not be affected until August 1st, 2018.

    If you switch the app from live to development mode ,then it won’t show the invalid scope error and also posts will be auto published to Facebook,but the posts won’t be visible to others since the app is in development mode.These post will only appear when you make the app live.

    Your app need to go through the review process for the scopes publish_pages,manage_pages and user_photos to work with the existing plugin code.
    Submitting app for review isn’t easy,so we are working on alternative method.
    Thank you for the feedback and support

    So, in other words, until you find this alternative method, there is no way of auto posting with your plugin, right?

    Yes,only apps in development mode is able to post,but it won’t be visible to others.
    So we will update the plugin when the alternative method works without any flaw.
    Thank you.
