This used to be a relatively simple thing to do (not as simple as it was a year ago, and now even less simple). Caveat: I am not well-versed in the Facebook API — I don't build apps; I just build web sites, and every once in a while need to display a simple (but far too custom for a facebook widget) display of a facebook page's feed. No problem, usually, but…
I usually just used a client token — just generated it once and stored it permanently as a variable. But for this site, accessing the feed requires a user access token because it's age-restricted (alchohol site). The way this would have been done earlier is to just generate a token with "offline_access", and I could store that permanently as a variable. But offline_access has been deprecated.
From what I understand, now my only option is a long-term access token. But these must be extended every sixty days.
All I want to do is display a feed — I don't want the user to have to do anything but see the feed — never be prompted to log in, etc. And I certainly don't want myself or my client to have to generate a new token every two months.
Is there some simple, permanent (I mean, until facebook changes the rules again) way to do this?
