Not sure if this has been addressed. Im working on the notifications from Plexpy. I have tried the email and Facebook. They are not working. Here are the messages that Im getting in my log.

2016-02-08 11:54:32 WARNING PlexPy Notifiers :: Error sending Facebook post: (#200) Insufficient permission to post to target on behalf of the viewer  
2016-02-08 11:54:31 WARNING PlexPy Notifiers :: Email notification failed: please run connect() first

I know that these are experimental but I wasnt sure if anyone has gotten these working yet. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Im sure that it is something that Im not doing right; whether it is a checkbox somewhere or not putting in some sort of text.

I figured it out. I had forgot to add information to the login credentials.

Can you please expound on how you added the correct information to the login credentials? I am having the same issue with email notifications and am unsure where you made the correction. Thank you

Ensure that you allow the app you create to post to your friends. I had this set as “Only Me” and this error was generated.

Where do I make that change? In PlexPy or on the Facebook Dev page?
