Troubleshooting: Facebook error when connecting App to Social Post Rotator

After adding your App ID and App Secret into your software settings:

INVALID SCOPES ERROR
If you are seeing the following error...

"Invalid Scopes: publish_pages, user_posts, 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"

Make sure you go back through the App Set Up video inside the Training Tab. Follow each step precisely, as the above error means that the steps in the video were not followed correctly. If the issue persists, try the ANOTHER ERROR troubleshooting fix described below.


***********************************************

URL BLOCKED ERROR
If Facebook is giving you the following error:

"URL Blocked: This redirect failed because the redirect URI is not whitelisted in the app’s Client OAuth Settings. Make sure Client and Web OAuth Login are on and add all your app domains as Valid OAuth Redirect URLs"

Go back to your App inside your Facebook Developers account, and find the Client OAuth Setting check box that was part of the Facebook App Set Up instructions (https://s3.amazonaws.com/socialpostrotator/SPR+Facebook+Settings.pdf) and ensure you have turned it on, as per the screenshot in Step #16. Once that's done, try connecting the app to the software again.

***********************************************

ANOTHER ERROR
If Facebook is giving you another error...

1. Go back to your App, and turn OFF your App Status in the top right hand corner and Save



2. Then try to connect the App to the software again
