[pitzmoni]

Hi!

This is happening since today. Any idea how to fix this?

Starting to iterate pages
Requesting page from: https://m.facebook.com/search/posts?q=nintendo&filters=eyJyZWNlbnRfcG9zdHM6MCI6IntcIm5hbWVcIjpcInJlY2VudF9wb3N0c1wiLFwiYXJnc1wiOlwiXCJ9In0%3D
Parsing page response
No raw posts (elements) were found in this page.
The page url is: https://www.facebook.com/search/posts?q=nintendo&filters=eyJyZWNlbnRfcG9zdHM6MCI6IntcIm5hbWVcIjpcInJlY2VudF9wb3N0c1wiLFwiYXJnc1wiOlwiXCJ9In0%3D&paipv=0&eav=AfYBYtYXxPsmSCoItP-NULyhOx13CGO6SHQiqtPSRrm2w5taUxlDlImty8q9s1gKi38&_rdr
The page content is:
+------------------------------------------------------------
| Facebook
| :root, .__fb-light-mode:root, .__fb-light-mode {--fds-black:#000000;--fds-black-alpha-05:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05);--fds-black-alpha-10:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);--fds-black-alpha-15:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.15);--fds-black-alpha-20:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);--fds-black-alpha-30:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);--fds-black-alpha-40:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);--fds-black-alpha-50:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);--fds-black-alpha-60:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);--fds-black-alpha-80:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);--fds-blue-05:#ECF3FF;--fds-blue-30:#AAC9FF;--fds-blue-40:#77A7FF;--fds-blue-60:#1877F2;--fds-blue-

etc.

was it working for you yesterday?

Facing same issue, was working for me yesterday. Please post here if you find any solution.

The same worked well for a long time. I tried with different accounts, IPs, headers, nothing worked. I guess I will try to build something with selenium.

@pitzmoni looks like you tried moda20/facebook-scraper, its also not working?

moda20 fork didn't work either even though using base_url, start_url, mbasicHeaders etc.

[ahmad-a-radwan07]

the reason it's not working anymore is that the generic facebook version that had the elements setup in the format supposedly tackled by the library is no longer showing, i used to get to that version by using an unsupported user agent, but it just shows unsupported browser message, if anybody can get a url format that would allow us to access that version of facebook the issue would be fixed

I am also having this issue with the get_posts_by_url method. It's been working fine for months.

Any news?

[MarcosChavarria]

Facing same issue, looks like m.facebook.com are gone

@pitzmoni any news?

No great progress here. Selenium's output was the same, with Playwright I managed to get some data, but not everything I wanted. Anyone else?

@pitzmoni @MarcosChavarria @Kaosam a whiel a go i forked this repo and focused on using the mbasic version to get all the needed data : https://github.com/moda20/facebook-scraper
it still works as far as scraping pages, but you can also try groups. Note that it requires cookies

It does not work either: "Couldn't get any posts."

Solved with moda20#66

Unfortunately, still no solution to get_posts_by_search, though get_posts works fine.
