Announcement – Facebook Messenger Changes in Development

Dear WordPress Users,

As you might have already heard, Facebook is updating on improving data security to strengthen user privacy experience, and recently they announced they have been making changes to their Platform.

In the meantime, app review process is paused which includes the ability to connect/ reconnect a plugin to any Messenger app or new authentications on approved/non-approved apps.

>>>>>> Here is what they have stated:

“Today Ime Archibong, VP Platform Partnerships, announced some updates to the Facebook platform, which also impacts Messenger. These critical steps will give people more control of their data, and put stronger protections in place to prevent misuse. As it relates to Messenger, we are currently pausing app review, which means there will be no new bots/experiences added to the platform while we review our policies and make necessary adjustments. Existing Messenger experiences will continue to function as is.”

So what does this means?

⇒ Existing apps will not be affected: Everything will be as per normal and you will still be able to continue running your campaigns with our plugins. Be noticed that don’t disconnect an app, it will be impossible to connect again.

⇒ New apps signups will not be able to connect Facebook page: Review app for submission is pausing and connecting webhooks get an error.

We are expecting this temporary “pause” to last for just a couple weeks. During this period of time, please seek your kind understanding and patience.
If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to let us know. We will be happy to help.

Best,
Ninja Team
