Facebook/Instagram Token status is active. I get a red dot. Feed is not live. What can be the problem? Thanks! Also, I’ve been having this issue for years. Not sure if this plugin is still supported as, I’ve left comments here and have requested support for years now and have not received any response. Please advise, please respond or refund all of my licenses. Please demonstrate commercially responsible efforts.
Hello, please send site info via https://social-streams.com/contact/ There been lot of updates for social network API lately, possibly you need update
Hi, how can i manage to block flow flow with complianz user must accept cookies to show?
Hello, currently there is no integration with complianz or similar plugins. We have built-in cookie feature in to-do for next versions
Dear Flow-Flow Developers please see this error report. Thank you.
Flow-Flow v4.9.85 — Bug Report: Excessive Debug Logging in Production
Summary
The plugin writes verbose debug logs to error_log on every cron cycle in production (WP_DEBUG off). This pollutes server logs and may affect performance on high-traffic sites.
Affected files
1. libs/flowflow/core/src/LABase.php — refreshCache() method 2. includes/FlowFlow.php — checkTikTokToken() and checkLinkedInToken()
Bug #1 — Inverted WP_DEBUG condition in refreshCache() [LABase.php]
All debug error_log() calls inside refreshCache() use the condition:
if (!defined('WP_DEBUG') || !WP_DEBUG)This is inverted. It logs when WP_DEBUG is OFF (production) and stays silent when WP_DEBUG is ON (development) — the exact opposite of the intended behaviour. There are 8 occurrences of this pattern in the method (lines ~278, 305, 311, 321, 405, 414, 421, 436) plus one unguarded error_log on line ~426.
Symptoms observed in production: – “Flow-Flow Debug: refreshCache called with streamId=null …” – “Flow-Flow Debug: Refreshing all feeds with expired cache” – “Flow-Flow Debug: Found 0 feeds to refresh” – “Flow-Flow Debug: refreshCache completed in X seconds” – Full JSON debug dumps every minute (or whatever the cron interval is)
Fix: replace every if (!defined(‘WP_DEBUG’) || !WP_DEBUG) with if (defined(‘WP_DEBUG’) && WP_DEBUG)
Bug #2 — Unconditional logging in token-check cron jobs [FlowFlow.php]
checkTikTokToken() and checkLinkedInToken() log warnings via error_log() with no WP_DEBUG guard when no refresh token is stored:
"[Flow-Flow TikTok] No refresh token available for cron refresh"
"[Flow-Flow LinkedIn] No refresh token available for cron refresh"These cron jobs are scheduled unconditionally (every 6 hours for TikTok, daily for LinkedIn) even when TikTok/LinkedIn feeds are not configured. Since no refresh token will ever exist in that case, the warning fires on every scheduled run.
Fix: wrap the error_log() calls in if (defined(‘WP_DEBUG’) && WP_DEBUG) so they only appear during development/debugging.
Optional improvement: only schedule the token-check cron events when the corresponding service has actually been authenticated (i.e. a refresh token exists in options).
Hello, thanks for reporting, will patch
Hi! Token status is active. I get feed errors and the plugin don’t work. Feed is not live. What can be the problem? Thanks!
Hello, please send details via form https://social-streams.com/contact/ and we’ll assist
Do you mean that the content can be fully indexed by the Google search engine? Can it be easily edited using Elementor? Can it integrate perfectly with the King theme (https://themeforest.net/item/king-wordpress-theme/19436704
per my understanding google indexes such dynamic content. Elementor is supported. Theme compatibility is usually defined how all WP standards are followed, should be fine with any themeforest theme
Is the social stream FlowFlow produces crawlable by Google? In other words are you SEO friendly?
Hello, yes, Googlebot uses a modern, headless browser (Chromium instance) to execute JavaScript and process pages much like a user’s browser would
Do you mean the content can be indexed by the latest Google search engine?
I’m trying to get my Instagram feed to work but I keep getting the ‘unsupported get request’. The Insta account is a business account and is connected to the Facebook Business Page, just like the instructions mention. The Facebook page connects and pulls in posts fine, but the Instagram feed won’t seem to connect with the message “App received next error message for this feed: Unsupported GET request”. How can I fix this and get my Instagram posts?
Hello, please download latest version 4.9.84 and update plugin, this should be sorted.
Thank you so much, all working!
Hi, it’s pulling in the Instagram feed ok but it is occasionally causing an Database Connection error message to pop up ’”SafeMySQL: 1226 User ‘bakusr_cgp’ has exceeded the ‘max_user_connections’ resource (current value: 30)”’
hello, thanks for pointing at this, will look to improve in next update
The free version of flow-flow (4.7.5) is currently closed on wordpress.org because of an unfixed security vulnerability. Is this fixed in the paid version (4.9.83)? (BTW: the “Big Cards” demo is probably broken, the old demo site flow.looks-awesome.com is still accessible and certainly broken).
Hello, yes, we fixed all reported vulnerabilities. Thanks for pointing, demo is up now
Is there a sales page with a menu and payment options? I’d like to create an environment like that exclusively for paid users.
Hello, if you mean membership plugin access so users can create own feeds than no, it’s not available
After a decade of users begging for a native way to translate the 'Show More' button, I’ve implemented a pure CSS solution that works flawlessly on version 4.9.83 without adding the bloat of extra plugins.
This machination rebrands the Lightbox to match a dark theme perfectly, ensuring a seamless and high-performance user experience.
You can witness ‘The Watcher’ in action here: https://piorevangelho.online/#observador
️ Technical Highlights:
- Zero Bloat: No extra JavaScript or translation plugins required.
- Pure CSS: Surgical mapping of containers and pseudo-elements.
- Dark Mode: Complete visual overhaul of the Lightbox interface.
Hello, nice customization. Did you have translation issues? We include language translation files for some languages and you can generate language files for other, you can even send us files for portuguese and we will add it to the plugin distributive
Hello! Thanks for the feedback.
Did you have translation issues? We include language translation files for some languages…
Actually, my pure CSS solution was a deliberate choice to achieve Zero Bloat. After a decade of users waiting for a native way to translate surgical UI elements like the 'Show More' button, I performed some Digital Archaeology to bypass the need for additional .po/.mo files or translation plugins.
By mapping the containers directly via CSS, I’ve ensured maximum performance and a seamless Dark Mode overhaul that works flawlessly on version 4.9.83 without adding any server-side overhead. This machination is about providing a lightweight, validated alternative for developers who prioritize code integrity and speed.
FINAL UPDATE – Migration & Solution Archival (April 2026)
After several months without a technical response regarding my license request and the integration of my performance feedback, I have decided to migrate my ecosystem to a more stable solution.
Consequently, the link previously used as a ‘showcase’ (piorevangelho.online) is no longer active for this plugin. However, in honor of the #ZeroBloat philosophy, I am not deleting the solution itself.
To those who persist with this plugin and need the Pure CSS fix for version 4.9.86, the technical documentation remains archived and publicly accessible at my official laboratory: https://geovanesou.com/maquinacoes/.Signing off, Geovane Souza (OS Admin)
Hello, I’m having trouble accessing my Facebook feed:
- Authentication completed - Token generated - Profile picture generated - Feed created, but it loops endlessly with the Facebook page ID or page name, indicated by a red dot next to the Facebook feed.
The feeds are generated in the “Connected Feed” tab.
- Firewall disabled - I deleted the 2023 version of the Facebook Feed app and connected the 2026 version. I don’t know what to do next. Please help.
Hello, please contact via https://social-streams.com/contact and provide temp account so we can troubleshoot and fix
Ok merci
What is the approximate waiting time?
Hello, please send temp admin access via contact form so we troubleshoot and fix
Okay, it’s done.
Hello, not sure we received communication via email from you. Try the form on this page alternatively https://codecanyon.net/user/looks_awesome
Okay, it’s done.
Thank You for the work
My ticket has been unanswered for more than 5 days. Can someone look into it?
Hello, sorry for delay due to holiday season. Please check email
Did TikTok approve API access?
Hello, yes, integration was added since 4.9.82. Working example on main demo
I think that’s new. I’ve always selected ‘local caching’, not cloud.
Flow-Flow v. 4.9.72
Hello, this is normal behavior, these urls are provided by facebook APIs and exactly for purposes to display Facebook/Instagram on third-party sites. That’s how majority of similar solutions work. You can add notice about that in your site disclaimer
Ok. Thank you for quick response.
Can I completely curate a single feed? Like, I just add a few Instagram URLs, a few X post URLs, etc. (all from different accounts).
Hello, such feature is not available because plugin idea is to pull recent posts, closest you can get to curation is existing posts moderation (you can enable/disable posts) so you can show specific posts from recent feed
Hello, particularly this feed is not working but we are looking now into its format to see how it can be done
we added ATOM feeds support in latest version released today. reddit feeds work now
thanks but you work on reddit.
Yes, the feed you requested. see screen https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/k7024rfqle7khnoi2bh3b/Screenshot-2025-12-08-at-19.58.41.png?rlkey=1rt2kht2nqnt8nj0ohtres9i2&st=whjoemfd&dl=0
Dear author,
I been trying to fetch Facebook page but failed. It used to working like a charm. Not sure why.
Page = https://www.facebook.com/technologysimplicityIt’s my own Facebook page, I had connected under “AUTH” but I just can’t create feed. I tried the following combination: 1. Page = technologysimplicity 2. Page = 177466525940297 3. Page with restrictions = technologysimplicity 4. Page with restrictions = 177466525940297
I had tried to remove the app connection (Flow-Flow app), and then authenticate again, still no luck.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
I just realized something, if I didn’t authenticate, it’s working like a charm, using FREE version.
But paid version, not working, even I do the exact same step like FREE version. I’m stuck.
Hello. It sounds like you are using older pro version, can you update and try with latest?
Latest version, but still can’t get Instagram feeds by hashtags. App received next error message for this feed: (#100) Please read documentation for supported fields.
Hello, confirming it’s general issue, looking into it to patch
Hello, with 4.9.8 installed we get this message: There is a new version of Flow-Flow available. View version 4.9.72 details or update now. Please change it if possible…
Hello, thanks for reporting issue, will update
Hi there,
Have used your social streams for several years now. Currently have it set up to a school board website that has over 10 Facebook feeds from different schools, set to their individual school profiles. The feeds aren’t updating appropriately, so I am wondering if perhaps there is a limit of feeds we can use.
Once you reply, I can send you a screencast video of the error. Hopefully you can look into it further.
If prefer I send this information via email or a contact form, please guide me to the best option. Thanks!
Hello! Please update to the latest version 4.9.8, which includes a more robust content-update mechanism along with several other improvements. The update is currently available for download on CodeCanyon, and it will also be available via the WordPress admin panel soon.
If you continue to experience any issues after updating, please let us know via https://social-streams.com/contact/
Okay, great. Will give the update a try and keep you posted via your contact form. Thanks much!
Send you an inquiry form, but will add it here too.
After updating the plugin, I am now getting a critical error when trying to open the Elementor page builder. If the social stream plugin is deactivated, I’m able to access Elementor again.

Okay, just updated the plugin and it fixed the problem. I’m still having issues with feeds updating regularly.
