Doesn't seem to work – getposts.php returns an empty response, the URL in "Data Scraped from Facebook Page …" heading changes, but the posts displayed are still from that demo dog page.
EDIT: Upon further inspection, it does work for some pages, but not for all of them (even if they are public). Maybe some limitation by FB's page type/category?
- redhathacker 6y agoyep, I tested and found it doesn't work for all pages. It does a request to m.facebook.com/$Q/posts sometimes it's there, sometimes not. It's just a demo and only to gauge interest in a full blown API / SaaS of some sort. Are you generally interested in scraping data from FB using a API?
- abarrettwilsdon 6y agoI caution against trying to monetize it; Facebook will waste your time with constant cat and mouse changes to the HTML and will bully you with their vast legal resources
