Troubleshooting

Running into problems? Find your error message below and follow the steps to fix it.

General Issues

These can happen with any platform:

"Platform not configured"

What it means: The credentials haven't been added to the website yet.

What to do:

  • Contact your administrator
  • Make sure they received your App IDs and Secrets
  • Ask them to add the credentials to the website settings

"Callback failed or Token exchange failed"

What it means: Something went wrong during the connection process.

What to do:

  • Try again — sometimes it's a temporary issue
  • Make sure the redirect URL was entered correctly in the app settings
  • Check that the App ID and Secret are correct
  • Contact your administrator if it keeps happening

Facebook Issues

"No pages found"

What it means: Your Facebook account isn't connected to a Facebook Page.

What to do:

  • Make sure you have a Facebook Page (not just a personal profile)
  • Make sure you're an admin of that Page
  • Try disconnecting and reconnecting

"Invalid OAuth access token"

What it means: The token may have expired or is incorrect.

What to do:

  • Generate a new token in the Facebook Developer portal
  • Make sure you're using the Page Access Token, not User Access Token
  • Check if the app is in Live mode (not Development mode)

LinkedIn Issues

"Insufficient permissions"

What it means: LinkedIn hasn't approved your posting request yet.

What to do:

  • Check your email for an approval message from LinkedIn
  • This can take 1-2 days
  • Go back to LinkedIn Developers and check if "Share on LinkedIn" was approved
  • If it was rejected, you may need to provide more information

Reddit Issues

"Invalid username or password"

What it means: Wrong login info, or you have two-factor authentication enabled.

What to do:

  • Double-check your username (don't include "u/")
  • Double-check your password
  • If you have 2FA enabled, create an app password (see instructions below)

"Rate limit exceeded"

What it means: Reddit has strict limits on how often you can post.

What to do:

  • Wait before trying again
  • Reduce your posting frequency
  • New accounts have stricter limits — build up karma first
