Hey there,

Upon using your script, I got some errors, in specific when It was writing the message of the post:

@sheinfeld did you ever get this to work?

andrewka85 commented 4 years ago

I am trying to do the same script, but it is not working, it cannot find some elements by xpath on the page, im also just confused if Facebook allows bots to do this

I had the same issue, fixed it by adding some delay to the code to let the page load fully and accept the cookies popup, I'll provide a part of the code here. If it does not work let me know. I'm working to further improve the code and make it fully usable again.

Code

# Login Facebook
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
prefs = {"profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications" : 2}
options.add_experimental_option("prefs",prefs)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
driver.get('https://www.facebook.com')
emailelement = driver.find_element(By.XPATH,'//*[@id="email"]')
emailelement.send_keys(account)
passelement = driver.find_element(By.XPATH,'//*[@id="pass"]')
passelement.send_keys(password)
#Pauses the code to let the page load, adjust for slower internet connections
time.sleep(1)
#Accepts all cookies
cookieselement = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[@title="Accept All"]').click()
loginelement = driver.find_element(By.XPATH,'//*[@name="login"]').click()
time.sleep(2)
