 * In Italy after receiving the notification this and other publishing plugins don’t
   work anymore. I have not understood what I should/could do to fit for the new
   facebook whims.

 * I am wondering also, after receiving the message from Facebook. If I click, on
   FB, to enable migration for the March and April changes, will that break things?

 * Me too, i think the problem is related to the fact that we didn’t enable the “
   February 2013 Breaking Changes”, but for some reason (we past February 6 ?), 
   you can’t enable this anymore ? This can’t be right, if you are too late enabling
   this, there isn’t a way anymore to rectify this ????

 * Hi AntoniusFM
 * Once February 6 is passed “February 2013 Breaking Changes” are now forcefully
   enabled on all apps by default. That’s why you cannot see any option to enable
   it now.
 * Same will happen with upcoming breaking changes in March and April.
    You can 
   enable them now if you want to test your app. After the specified date your app
   with automatically migrated to those changes whether you want it or not.
 * The Plugin is working for me. Only error i got in case of republishing a post
   that already posted on fb.

 * Thanks for your quick reply Anand, and it makes sense what you are saying. Nevertheless,
   the plugin doesn’t post to FB anymore after the 6th of Feb, and it seems that
   i am not the only one having this problem, so is it just coincidental that it
   stopped working after the 6th ?

 * I think that the solution could be to delete the “old” applications and to redo
   them brand new, as it requires few minutes to create one. I tried to make a new
   one and I’m asked to apply to new parameters, so it can be done. The problem 
   is that I don’t know what of many items insert in the form.
    What is needed is
   a step by step tutorial to create/fix the applications with the new standards.
   Thank you for who could and want to help, me and a lot of other newbies! 😀

 * I don’t think there is any need to delete and create new app.
    I am running it
   properly on 2 websites without any problem and there are regularly publishing
   20-30 posts per day on facebook page.
 * Are you getting any error message on post edit page or on plugin settings page?

 * I get this errors:
    “**Some or all access permissions are missing. Please click
   the button Grant access rights! and authorize the plugin to post to your Facebook
   profile or page. [Error occured at line 774] Your page or profile’s access permissions
   could not be verified.“
 * I have the button “Grant access rights!” fonts red. When I click it, I have a
   new error added to the former:
    **Facebook returned an unexpected dataset. Try
   to resolve this issue, update the plugin or inform the author about the problem.[
   Error occured at line 597] Your application’s access permissions could not be
   granted.

 * I had faced similar issue once.
 * Please follow the steps below that might solve your issue
 * go to [http://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications](http://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications)
   
   it will show you the list of all the app that you had authorized.
 * look for the App that you are using for facebook page publish.
    Remove app access
   by click on X link on right of that app.
 * Now go back to Facebook Page publish settings in your WordPress Admin.
 * This time when your click on Grant Access it will open Facebook Dialog box to
   authorize the app.
    Further steps will be same as you have done while configuring
   the plugin for the first time.
 * I hope this trick will work for you as it had worked for me.

 * Thank you anand.au14 for the help.
    I did it, the FB dialog appeared, but after
   clicking it I was slammed back to the plugin setup page with the 2 pink frames
   with the known errors. Beside, opening one of the different links at the left
   of the application, that I’m not able to find again… appear a message saying 
   that the application has not been sent for review… For the moment I’m posting
   manually, what a…

 * Hi Anand, one more question regarding the “February 2013 Breaking Changes” if
   these changes are forcefully enabled, why does it alert me and ask me to fix 
   it (Fix Now) ?
