    Hi,

    I’ve installed the plugin and have followed the instructions to set up an app ID etc. but when the plugin attempts to get the Facebook reviews it pops up with the following error:

    Insecure Login Blocked: You can’t get an access token or log in to this app from an insecure page. Try re-loading the page as https://

    Do I need to have an SSL certificate installed on the website to work with this plugin or is there any workaround available?

    Thanks in advance,
    Sean

    It looks like Facebook is now requiring https on all new apps.

    From:
    https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/security#surfacearea

    Enforce HTTPS for OAuth Redirects and SDK APIs. This setting requires HTTPS for OAuth Redirects and pages getting access tokens with the JavaScript SDK. All new apps created as of March 2018 have this setting on by default and you should plan to migrate any existing apps to use only HTTPS URLs by March 2019. Most major cloud application hosts provide free and automatic configuration of TLS certificates for your applications. If you self-host your app or your hosting service doesn’t offer HTTPS by default, you can obtain a free certificate for your domain(s) from Let’s Encrypt.

    Facebook has temporarily disabled access to the Page Reviews portion of the API to any new FB apps. This plugin will not work till they reopen it.

    Hi,
    I solved the HTTPS problem using a plugin called “Force HTTPS”.
    Indeed my page is now HTTPS.
    But now i get the following message from facebook :
    “Invalid Scopes: 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”
    When i go to this page from facebook, it shows a list of permissions but i don’t know what to do with this information.

    Change your FB app status to “In Development”.
