Hi there, this is a presale question : is there any Facebook API key to fill in your plugins settings ? Because right now I have a Facebook feed plugin, but I have to update it every 1-2 months, with the risk to lose my feed and get an error message on my site, which is unprofessional. And updating that API key is annoying.

Could you confirm then that you plugin doesn't have that kind of requirement ? Thanks for your answer :)

Hi onirisweb,

Thank you for your interest in Elfsight Facebook Feed!

You don’t have to enter a Facebook API key to use our plugin. However, you still need to connect it to Facebook in the settings, and if the source account is not active on Facebook, you will also have to reconnect once in 2 months.

Elfsight

Hi there. I installed the plugin and I can’t make it work. After I click on Facebook connect I am getting an Access token code from Facebook but I don’t know where I have to insert this code. There is no place were I can insert this code from Facebook. Can you tell me what should I do to make this work? Please check out my print screen: https://prnt.sc/uvuwg3

I just upgraded the plugin to the new version which requires ‘Connect to Facebook’. I have gone through the steps but at the end it says

{error:{code:200,message:(#200) Missing Permissions}}

I tried multiple facebook accounts. I’ve used public facebook pages and it doesn’t work. Do you need to update the plugin or?

Hello 1tansu1,

Thank you for using Elfsight Facebook Feed!

Unfortunately, due to the changes on the side of Facebook, an option to display content via Public Page is not available at the moment.

For the time being, you should have full access to the Facebook page in order to display it in a widget. This way, if you have admin access to the required page, please reconnect to Facebook in the widget with Managed Pages option in order to show your feed.

Regards,
Elfsight

I tried that option and I still get the error.

I own the business page and it still gives me exactly the same problem.

Hello 1tansu1,

We’re very sorry that the issue still comes up for you. Please, start a conversation in our Support Center at https://codecanyon.elfsight.com/contact and provide us with the direct link to your site’s page with the plugin. We’ll make sure to look into this in the shortest possible time.

The plugin keeps disconnecting from the facebook account. I understand my support ended, but is there a way of updating the plugin and preventing the disconnection to happen? Thanks.

Hello monardo,

Thank you for using Elfsight Facebook Feed!

We’re very sorry that you’re having a hard time with the plugin. However, even though your support license has expired, you still have lifetime access to all plugin updates.

Also, due to the changes on the side of Facebook, an option to display content via Public Page is not available at the moment. We’re sincerely sorry for this change!

For the time being, you should have full access to the Facebook page in order to display it in a widget. This way, if you have admin access to the required page, please reconnect to Facebook in the widget with Managed Pages option in order to show your feed.

If any more questions or difficulties come up, please, don’t hesitate to send us a message from this page https://codecanyon.net/user/elfsight and we’ll be happy to help.

Your support has expired on 1/1/1970. Please renew support to get help. Are you joking? I bought it few days ago :-(

And, please, answer to my support request: “No search results for given source. Please, check the input data and make sure the page is open for public access”. And there isn’t way to make it work.

Hi, is there any update on this and do you think it will ever get fixed?
“No search results for given source. Please, check the input data and make sure the page is open for public access.”

I know about using the Managed pages bit by the way, so just curious if it will get fixed for Public pages.

Dear community, I would like to buy Elfsight Facebook Feed, Youtube Channel, Twitter Feed and Instagram Feed plugins. However, before buying I would like to know if it is sufficient to integrate it for all users via shortcode integration or if e.g. on Facebook the user has to connect / identify himself with his Facebook on Elfsight. Unfortunately I could not find this out anywhere. I would be grateful for tips. Have a wonderful day. Many greetings Neo

Hello Neo,

Thank you for your interest in Elfsight!

Our plugin allows you to display Facebook pages that you own or manage. So you need to connect the plugin to Facebook in the settings to be able to display content.

We hope this helps.

i downloaded the plugin with element i can’t find the license code what should i do?

Hello tonin,

Thank you for choosing Elfsight Facebook Feed!

Unfortunately, the activation code is not provided for items downloaded from Envato Elements. The activation code is basically the purchase code you get when you purchase a license on CodeCanyon, so to get one you need to purchase a regular license.

However, the activation is only required to give you access to automated updates and support, but it doesn’t affect the functionality in any way. So you’re very welcome to use the plugin without activating it!

​Elfsight

Hi. You keep mentioning this as the solution to the current problem:

“For the time being, you should have full access to the Facebook page in order to display it in a widget. This way, if you have admin access to the required page, please reconnect to Facebook in the widget with Managed Pages option in order to show your feed.”

What does that mean? How do we “reconnect to Facebook in the widget with Managed Pages option” – Can’t seem to figure this out?

Thanks for the help

Hi jonasbager,

Thank you for using Elfsight Facebook Feed!

To connect via Managed Pages, you need to select Managed Pages option on Source tab of your plugin’s settings, check all the required permissions in the connection window, and select the page you need to feature from the list of your available pages.

We hope this helps.

Elfsight

So why does the page not update when sharing a facebook event (by clicking on the share button)? we post messages on facebook and there is no change depending on the type of sharing.

Hello chupito,

Thank you for reaching out!

Due to Facebook confidentiality policy, our plugin doesn’t support the display of shared posts. Your feed will only display what you post on your Facebook page yourself.

We hope this explains things.

Elfsight

does it work for live video?

Hello inter01,

Thank you for your interest in Elfsight Facebook Feed!

Our plugin works with a 3-hour cache, so if you need to feature live videos in your feed, unfortunately, it is not the right solution for your case.

We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that you’ll find a plugin that can do this.
