How to create an Access Token to Manually connect a Facebook Page

This guide outlines the process of creating a Facebook Access Token using our Facebook Access Token tool. This can be used if you have been asked to provide one for setting up a Facebook Feed on a website.

Unfortunately, due to changes in Meta/Facebook’s data protection policies, we are no longer able to offer our tool for retrieving an access token to manually connect a Facebook Page.

If you are setting the plugin up for a client, here are some alternate methods to help them connect their page:

1) Your client can give you a role on the Facebook Page. Then you can connect the Facebook Page in the plugin using your own Facebook profile.

2) If your client is an Administrator on the WordPress site, they can directly access the WordPress Dashboard > Facebook Feed > Settings > Manage Sources area to connect their account.

3) If your client is an Editor on the WordPress site, you can use the steps in our guide here to give the Editor role access to the WordPress Dashboard > Facebook Feed > Settings page and connect their page.
