POGet my facebook public events and show in the my site with Facebook API - SDK

Body
copied!<p>I'd like to show my public events on my site. I use the code below, but it returns an empty object.</p> <p>My app has permissions on: user_events; rsvp_event, read_stream I would not use "offline_access" it will be deprecated permission.</p> <p>I read extensively the api documentation, but it lacks practical examples...</p> <p>As I use the "static token / $token_offline" it returns the events correctly.</p> <pre><code>// include SDK if (!class_exists('Facebook')) require_once (THEME_FACEBOOK_SDK .
