The inability to publish facebook.com links is a technical limitation imposed by Facebook - as Facebook says, "this has to do with recent privacy changes."
This can result in one of the following publishing errors:
- Facebook error: Permissions error (code 200, subcode 1609008)
- Facebook error: The URL you supplied is invalid (code 1500, subcode 1611248)
