Wordpress "Add Link to Facebook" plugin - wordpress

I've been using the Wordpress "Add Link to Facebook" plugin to add links to articles to Facebook. This has been working fine until last night (coinciding with our first scheduled post).
Now, if I go to a published post, I can see "Add link: Facebook error: (#283) Requires extended permission: manage_pages" as a custom post value.
On Facebook, when I go to Settings -> Apps and click the edit icon on the app, it does appear to have the Manage your Pages permission.
I've tried logging out, logging in, deauthorising, reauthorising etc.
Besides the scheduled posts, I have no explanation for why it's suddenly stopped working. Does anybody have any idea what might be going wrong?
Thanks!

Facebook forced apps to update to API v2.3 last night. Sounds like something went wrong though, so it's just a matter of waiting for them to fix it...

Why is my WP website redirecting the register page, to the login page

I have somewhat recently become the admin for a friend's website. When I came on he had about 80 different plugins and I have recently gotten rid of a lot of the useless one. The website was working perfectly fine afterwards. Then I found out (a bit before the WordPress 5.5 update) that the register page wasn't working properly. I went ahead and cleared a lot more things and have been troubleshooting it nearly everyday. The website is now at the point where you can go to the login page, but attempting to go to the register page will redirect the user back to the login page. If I visit as an admin I can access the page, but the form displays the text that I am already registered (correctly, but not useful).
The plugins that are currently enabled related to logins are: Ultimate Member, Gamipress, Jetpack, Loginizer, and various Gamipress and Ultimate member integration plugins. If you want to see the site for yourself you can find it here:

I cannot comment for more information, so I use the answers... In admin, then "Settings", then "General", does the box "Membership: Anyone can register" is checked? If the answer is no, I think that redirects to the login page.

WordPress Facebook comments error "Can't download"

I want Facebook comments on my images on WordPress. I'm using the Social Gallery Lite plugin for WordPress. It shows a comment lightbox for each image.
I have two problems:
The comments are not appearing in my moderation tool / I'm not getting notifications of new comments
Every time I add a new comment, I get an errormessage saying "Can't download", nothing more. When I refresh, the comment is added. When I add another comment on the same image, I don't get any errors. When I add another comment on another image, I get the error again.
This is what I did:
installed and acitvated the plugin
created a new app on facebook
copy pasted the APP ID in my plugin
made sure that I am the admin of the app
published the app (not even sure if this was necessary)
Am I missing a step?
Not really a coding related question here. So possibly on the wrong forum, best asked on the Wordpress community.
However, will attempt an answer here, it would seem that on the plugin itself does not need a facebook app to be created screenshot for app ID, it has a native app to do that. What you need to do is to provide your admin ID to the plugin to access your comments screenshot for admin access.

Remove element from Wordpress plugin

I am currently using a social media login plugin for my website that allows users to login via their social media account.
Currently the flow of the plugin works in a way such that after ANY user authenticate themselves through Facebook, they will be brought back to my site with 2 options, link their Facebook account with their site's account, or to register an account.
How can I edit my code such that I am able to remove the "registration account" part without editing the plugin code directly as this might affect future updates of the plugin itself. One way that I know will definitely work is to comment that section away in the plugins itself but I do not wish to touch the plugin code.
After researching, a possible way that I think might work is to apply a filter that removes the element but I am not sure if that is the correct workaround for this situation.
Can anyone shed some light on this matter?
Thank you!
I don't see a way to filter executed php code on your Wordpress website.
I got two ways of dealing with this:
1: Disallow people to register an account on your site. The registration link will probably not be displayed anymore.
2: Or comment out the code within the plugin. Remember where you edited the lines. Whenever the plugin gets an update, comment out those lines again. Or contact the owner of the plugin to issue a feature request.

Website Likebutton admin page not accessible

First, i've read all other related topics but did not found a solution for my problem.
I've many normal Websites with Like buttons integrated but i can't get access to the Adminpage to publish Messages to the Newsfeed of Users who liked the page (i can't see the "Admin Page" Link anywhere).
I have done the this instructions but i does not work for me.
For only a few page i can find the admin link under , there i can see the request (red box) to migrate my page and everything works fine.
So my question is how to obtain the Admin-Link for my page to get these migrated to normal FB-Pages?

Facebook for WordPress plugin unable to submit Opengraph Action

I try to follow the Instructions here but I also consulted this. I was able to install the plugin, create my Facebook app, get the namespace, icon etc. even a test post worked, but when I click "submit", I get a dialog box that says this:
Built-in Action Types require that you provide instructions for using your app's Open Graph integration as your Open Graph Test User in a functioning test environment. Failure to provide a functioning test environment will result in rejection of your Action Type.
I've tried typing in the box, but when I click continue I just get this box again. I wanted to setup auto syncing and ditch Networked Blogs, but maybe I should have stayed with a working solution, given this has gone far from smoothly. How do I get the publish article action submitted and approved?
I actually got the Facebook for WordPress plugin to work, but I didn't find it actually made my blog better. It seemed to run slow, unexpectedly stopped working at times, and did not result in increased traffic. If you want to share your posts to Facebook and you can stand clicking the button yourself after you hit publish, I recommend the Professional Share plugin. If you want related posts, I recommend the Yet Another Related Post Plugin.
The Facebook for WordPress plugin and JetPack are just too big, they have too much cruft, they are not worth running in my opinion and I've been using WordPress since 2005. Just because a big corporation makes an official plugin, doesn't mean it is the best.
