    Hello,
    I recently ran updates to this site and now this plugin isn’t working. The error on the widget says
    “ERROR: An access token is required to request this resource.”

    When I try to get an access token at first I got this error message.
    “Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App’s settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App’s domains.”

    So, I went in and edited my Facebook app to remove the https://.
    Now I get this error message.
    “Invalid Scopes: offline_access. 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”

    Please advise and thank you for your help.

    the error is because of Facebook updating their API and deprecating the old API version.
    I’ll work on a fix. there will be a new version this week.

    for now maybe just try to edit facebook-events-widget.php line 248 and remove ‘offline_access’ from the list.

    Thank you for your quick response.
    I tried removing “offline_access”. I don’t get the same error when requesting the access token. However, I don’t get an access token either. I’m just returned to the widget page.
    Looking forward to the resolution.

    strange. should work. anyway i’m uploading a new version in a few minutes.

    I am having the same problem. I have version 1.9.12 installed. Any update?

    This article helped me solve my problem:

    I had to login to the Developer App page and fill in App Domain and Site URL for my page. Then updated the widget settings and generated the token.

    Seems to be working now.

    At djlmcdonald’s suggestion I double checked my developer app and verify that my url’s were there. The url appeared several times but was missing in the “app domain” field. After entering that, it worked.
    Thank you
