      Hello,
      I set up everything step by step as described in the video. Facebook API set up and then tried to connect to Facebook via the post to Facebook button and received an error message:

      Invalid Scopes: pages_manage_posts, pages_read_user_content, pages_show_list. 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

      Hello,

      First of all, thank you for your purchase.

      Please be sure to use the latest plugin version: v3.3.4

      It seems that something is not right with the Facebook app you are currently using to connect the plugin to Facebook. Please create a new app, following this tutorial video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ibFQRcxXRs – please check the video starting from minute 30:40 in the video.

      If this is not helping, please send me temporary admin login credentials to your site and I check on this issue.

      Regards, Szabi – CodeRevolution.

      Many Thanks. It worked.

      Jet I still have a problem. Publishing posts on Facebook pages works. but I don’t see my groups where I am admin. I would also like to post there.

      I am glad to hear that it works.

      For posting to groups you need a special set of permissions approved by Facebook for your API app.

      You will need to submit your app for review by Facebook, for the group posting permission. For details, please check here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/groups-api/

      Regards.

      I am sorry for this, Facebook made this process really annoyingly hard. Also, making a guide is hard, because they change the steps needed almost monthly, so the guides become deprecated very often.

      I suggest you hire a freelancer from Fiver for this job, they should be able to get your app approved easily.
