Facebook reconnect appears successful but pages do not update
If you disconnect and reconnect Facebook but the page list stays the same (or is missing), the OAuth callback may not have completed on the backend.
How to diagnose
1.In Techne, go to Settings → Integrations → Facebook.
2.Click Show connection diagnostics to see the last callback timestamp and stored pages.
3.If the "Last updated" date is old or "Last callback" is missing, the reconnect did not complete.
Common causes
•Popup blocker: The OAuth popup was blocked, so the flow never started.
•Wrong Facebook profile: You logged in with a different profile than the one that admins the pages.
•Meta permissions: During Login for Business, you didn't select all required pages.
•Network/redirect error: The OAuth redirect back to the app failed silently.
How to fix
1.Disconnect Facebook in Techne.
2.Ensure popups are allowed for this site.
3.Click Connect with Facebook and carefully:
- Select the correct Facebook profile
- Grant access to all required pages on the consent screen
4.After the popup closes, check the diagnostics panel to confirm the "Last updated" timestamp changed.
5.If pages are still missing, check your Facebook Business Integrations to verify Techne.Blog has full access.
If using Facebook Business Manager
Pages managed via Business Manager may require explicit app access:
1.Open Business Settings → Integrations → Business Apps.
2.Ensure Techne.Blog has access to the page assets.
3.Reconnect in Techne after updating.
