Facebook Avatars on Imported Comments Have Disappeared on 24 Oct 2020

  • Today all of the Facebook avatars on comments imported by Nextscripts have disappeared. Facebook implemented Graph API v8.0 yesterday (see warning from Facebook below):

    You need to generate a client or app token to access user pictures starting October 23, 2020 @ 10AM PDT.?As part of Graph API v8.0, we’ve made changes to our token requirements. These changes will impact your app. A client or app token will now be required for querying all picture endpoints, including user pictures through public_profile. Queries without a token will return a generic silhouette as the user picture.?If you still need access to user profile pictures, you need to generate a client or app token before these changes take effect on October 23, 2020 @ 10AM PDT.

    Can you update the Nextscripts plugin, so that all imported Facebook comments have avatars again?

    Will be fixed in the next release.

    Facebook announced the changes to Graph API v8.0 back in August. i.e. 4 months ago. Many plugin developers upgraded their plugins in advance of 23 October to enable a smooth transition.

    The fact that Nextscripts did not anticipate this change is disgraceful. Three weeks later we are still waiting for the new release, which you promised.

    Your customers who purchased and paid for the PRO version are not really getting the after-sales service they expect. You must have thousands of dissatisfied customers!

    When is the new release coming? This month, next month, next year???
