Only likes and loves are scraped properly

Hi,

Great tool, congrats! I am using the following code:

from facebook_page_scraper import Facebook_scraper
import os
import stem.process
SOCKS_PORT = 9050
TOR_PATH = os.path.normpath(os.getcwd()+"\\Tor\\tor\\tor.exe")
tor_process = stem.process.launch_tor_with_config(
  config = {
    'SocksPort': str(SOCKS_PORT),
  },
  init_msg_handler = lambda line: print(line) if re.search('Bootstrapped', line) else False,
  tor_cmd = TOR_PATH
)
page_name = "metaai"
posts_count = 10
browser = "firefox"
proxy = "socks5://127.0.0.1:9050"
timeout = 600
headless = False
meta_ai = Facebook_scraper(page_name, posts_count, browser, proxy=proxy, timeout=timeout, headless=headless)
json_data = meta_ai.scrap_to_json()
print(json_data)

Numbers of likes and loves are correct, shares and other reactions seem to be always zero, as for number of comments I am getting a different (lower) number.

Same without proxy.

I am using the tool from Europe with language set to English(UK), although I am not sure about the correct way to select language without using authentication.

I would appreciate any advice you may have for me.

Thanks for raising the issue, the selector was outdated. Pushed some fixes, should work fine

Thanks a lot for fixing shares and comments, it works fine now :)

Regarding the issue 'only likes and loves are correct', I realized it's actually not likes and loves but the top 3 reactions, which are visible without clicking on "See who reacted to this":

while other reactions are missing and only visible after clicking:

On the other hand you can only click on the button after logging in. So in my understanding, it is not possible to get all the reactions without authentication, but I may consider top 3 as an estimation.
