Comment on Workaround to Facebook’s Graph API Search locale change by botactic

Hello, so how can i get information from pages and fanpages in this solution? I compared the graph with this solution and the graph has more results, i mean results form FPs and Pages.

Any ideas?

Thinking that this could probably be improved a lot using FQL Multiqueries somehow.

@Jorge: Haven’t tried that. The graph says (for example):

{
“about”: “SOMMERENS FESTIVAL I TISVILDELEJE d. 18. juli – 20. juli 2013. Koncerterne leveres af kendte og upcoming kunstnere. SEND VIDERE TIL DINE VENNER”,
…
“is_published”: true,
“location”: {
“street”: “Hovedgaden 114″,
“city”: “Tisvildeleje”,
“state”: “”,
“country”: “Denmark”,
“zip”: “3220″,
“latitude”: 56.058267059896,
“longitude”: 12.06385917591
},
“mission”: “SPIL PÅ MUSIK I LEJET 18. – 20. JULI 2013\nSend din musik på spilpaa@musikilejet.dk, så vurderer …
}

Where the location->country (if defined) would make sense to use – but I guess not all pages has a location – and a location is not exactly the same as a locale.

@Botactic: Sounds odd. Have not done that recently but just tried typing http://graph.facebook.com/search?q=thorning&type=post&since=1minuteago in my browser. It worked without problems for me.

Hello,

What about selector “since”? Should I add “&since=1dayago” to the 1st query in variable $geturl?

I mean:
$geturl = “http://graph.facebook.com/search?q=” . urlencode($searchterm) . “&type=post&since=1hourago”;

Doesn’t work … :/

I have also made the same Q&D php
But this “solution” is incomplete for me because you can get the locale field from a user but you can’t get it from a page. Do you know a way to get the locale or the language for a Facebook page_id?

Thanks in advance

Comment on IE7 content disappears by Karen

Thank you so much! The first solution did the trick for me.

I thought for sure IE6 would have been the trouble maker but… hey! It’s IE!

Also, another good tool for testing browsers is Adobe’s Browserlabs… http://www.browserlab.adobe.com A lot faster and more sophisticated than Browsershots

Thanks again!

Maybe they should just consider tearing down the gas stations and building hollow glass skyscrapers?!?

Comment on Javascript performance on current browsers by Jens Ulrik

Just installed Safari 4 public beta on the same T60p laptop. Same test gave an average of 312,10. Never thought much of Safari on Windows – wonder if a plug-in-community similar to Firefox’es could emerge under Safari..

Comment on Feisty Fawn screen resolution issues by Jens Ulrik

@Reuben: A few steps to remedy:

1) Install the nano editor if it is not already installed:

#sudo apt-get install nano

2) edit the xorg.conf file and verify or remove/comment out the modeline again

3) reboot or restart X

It is vital that your modeline follows the specifications of your monitor and your display adapter.

I tried using the steps you provided but when I rebooted Ubuntu. I got a x11 crash. Now I have no GUI what so ever. The read out said that the command “Modeline” was unknown. Is there something I’m missing in your instructions? Because as of right now I am missing my GUI for Ubuntu entirely. Any help from anyone would be great.

In a regular Ubuntu setup you should be able to sudo to edit the file:

$ sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Just supply your own password when requested

Help!
I can’t edit xorg.conf as I keep running into permission problems which I seem unable to resolve. How do I log on as Root when I don’t know the password??
