None of the answers to related issues have helped me.
I am trying to create a Facebook login for my Ning site. When I Add Platform under settings, it is only the 'Website' icon that is unclickable.
I followed the Ning instructions for enabling this to the letter, they are here:

Any help would be appreciated.
I had this problem too:
In my case it was because the Website section was already added:

I've been using the Facebook Plugin for years, on dozens of websites, but all of a sudden, I can only see the page's facebook header, the actual feed appears only as a spinning icon. This is on my desktop and mobile device, feed is at the bottom of the page. https://saltydogfestival.com

However, my co-worker in the desk across from me tried it on his desktop and laptop and the feed loads just fine.
I'm not a page admin for this particular feed.
I have this plugin for other facebook pages, for which I AM an Admin, and those don't show up for me, either. I've tried using Chrome and Edge.
I'm knocking my head against the wall with this.... or maybe it's something so simple that I'm not seeing it... Suggestions??? Please save what's left of my sanity!
I think this issue has affected many sites including mine. I used a third party plugin recently that's said to no affect page speed. It's called "Buttonizer - Smart Floating Action Button" you can add a FB messenger button also and add call to action and any they button as well. I have disabled the Facebook chat one for now. If you can update me if it's now work for you that would be great as I'm in the same boat. Email mtgusto#outlook.com
Edited - bug seems resolved
This is what worked for me:
Go to Facebook Developers - Page Plugin and configure the 'widget' with desired params.
As you change the parameters the preview should update & show. If it doesn't, try signing out.
Click "Get Code" beneath the preview. I used the JavaScript SDK method.
Copy & paste the first piece of code after the < body > tag.
Copy & paste the second piece of code where the box should appear.
Previous answer - leaving here for posterity / reference
It seems to be an issue with Facebook that occurs when the visitor is signed in to Facebook. Try viewing the page in a private window or reload after you have signed out of Facebook to see if it loads when you are not signed in.
There's more information on a Facebook Developers bug report, which was just marked as closed 8/26, although it still appears to be happening: https://developers.facebook.com/support/bugs/584988619248795/
This other community thread has a work-around - look for Dave's comment: https://developers.facebook.com/community/threads/1018223139108570/
I've been trying to do the tutorial here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-basic-display-api/getting-started but I immediately get stuck on Step 2 because there's no product under "Add a Product" list as seen on the screenshot below.
Facebook App Dashboard - Add a Product
I've done the following but still no luck:
Google
Search SO but wasn't able to find an issue like this
Disabled adblocker
Created a new account solely to use in Facebook Developers site
Anyone can point me to the right direction? I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!

I have the same problem like asked here: Facebook messenger checkbox plugin is hidden
I tried the implementation of the Facebook Checkbox Plugin according to Facebooks documentation but it won't show on my VM in my Company.
The Facebook SDK Implementation works fine, I tried the "Share" and "Like"-Button, which show up correct.
I have a Facbook Page which has public access and a Messenger APP in DEV-mode. The "Send-API" from Facebook works correct too: I am able to send message to myself as administrator from my Webpage on my development VM.
Following Steps are done: use a random user_ref on every request, set my page on the whitelist, use "https", visit my page FB-loggedIN and FB-loggedOut
But the result ends in Markup and Log-Infos like this screen:
See FF DeveloperTools Markup Screenshot for current state
According to this I visited a page given as origin where the Plugin should work (see first link in my question) - but there the plugins' HTML is the same like mine.
So is there a general problem on Facebooks' site or is there quite more necessary, to get this plugin running? Could it be a problem with self-signed certificate on my VM?
At the moment I don't want to notify or login any user. All I want is that the checkbox is shown.
Pherhaps anyone has an idea or the same experiences :)
Additional Info: the console shows following message
fb:messenger_checkbox failed to resize in 45s
after some fiddling we found out that a registered webhook is required (even if you dont consume the events) to make the messenger checkbox plugin render properly.
I inserted the facebook code where required and absolutely nothing happens or shows up. Using dreamweaver cs6 and in live view or when testing in ANY browser, nothing shows up. It's a blank box. ANy thoughts? I read somewhere that the website must be made into an application of facebook? Is this something?
Specifically, after activating the plugin and properly connecting the plugin to the facebook app,which does work and has been used extensively before hand, comments simply fail to load. There is no comment box, no past comments pull in either (note the app has historical comments already).
In the plugin settings area on the right side of the screen where the comments check box exists, there is a read more link that takes you to the facebook developers page where it discusses adding the facebook comments iframe.
If there is some other location where comment settings might also exist (past the three fields that require the 2 keys and the app name) I could not find them and this was not referenced in the plugin setup.
I'm trying to add the "Follow" plugin to my website. There are several methods for this (as described on the Facebooks developer page), but none of them work for me.
They do work with the example user "zuck", but not with my profile. When I was trying the XFBML approach, I thought I was doing something wrong, but even the Iframe version won't work for my profile. I can't explain this.
Plugin with default user (zuck's) URL shows:
http://www.facebook.com/plugins/follow.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fzuck&layout=standard&show_faces=true&colorscheme=light&font&width=450
Plugin with my profile (middelkoopjan) URL doesn't show:
http://www.facebook.com/plugins/follow.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fmiddelkoopjan&layout=standard&show_faces=true&colorscheme=light&font&width=450
I feel like I'm overlooking something elementary, but I'm at a loss here... any help would be very much appreciated.
You have to allow subscriptions in your Facebook profiles account settings. Click on the 'Subscribers' link on the menu on the left side of the screen, and check the box on "Allow subscribers". That should enable the follow plugin to work for your profile.
