I also encounter this bug, this a bug in facebook mbasic. If you click on the "See More Stories" enough times, eventually it will loop. The only way to work around this issue is to use the -rf flag to pass in the file with contains the cursor URL you want to continue. Patient and do it page by page manually, eventually you will get all the posts
Since it not related to our side, we should close this @kevinzg
Hi! I'm trying to collect the posts of a public Facebook profil. Its ID is as follows: 100008565963538. However, when I begin the process, the collection does not collect any posts before February 12th 2023. In fact, when it hits February 12th, the collection then, for whatever reason, begins again collecting posts around February 22nd. Then it proceeds to collect towards February 12th, then going back to February 22nd. This continues until I stop it or the code is blocked by Facebook.
Any help much appreciated. I include the code below.
The
start_url
.txt
file which is read in consists simply of the following text "https://m.facebook.com//profile.php?id=100008565963538". The idea is that, after the initial run of the code, this.txt
file will have thestart_url
to be used later.
