that function is for internal use only, the comment for usage in code is old version you need to add a parameter in get_post, which is extra_info

Where do I have to add the 'extra_info' line? Do I have to modify any file from the facebook-scraper folder?

for example: for post in get_posts('nintendo', pages=1,extra_info=True) but sometimes it doesn't work properly, like sometimes I can only get reactions from a post that includes video, and idk why

Thank you for your response, yes i arrived to collect reactions using 'extra_info' parameter,,but i need the comments for each post , do you have any idea how can i extract them ? thank you.

The extra_info starts acting up when analyzing long sets of data for me. The CLI usage is also funky when I try to create a .csv for data sets > 5 pages

I think this is the most helpful one https://github.com/rugantio/fbcrawl its good at crawling comments, but its crawling post functions is kinda broken
