How can I simple get count of likes, shares and comments from a URL using PHP?
The method using FQL or graph.facebook.com didnt work anymore.
I need also about 1000 requests per day, I need solution with request limit more then 1000.
I think that FQL became deceprated by the beginning of August. I've solved this problem using graph API and stating the fields argument
fields=likes.limit(0).summary(true),comments.limit(0).summary(true)
the fields likes and comments would give you a list of people who liked or commented on it, the .limit(0) means that you don't need any exact names mentioned and .summary(true) gives you more detailed info on it - the number of likes/comments.
I hope this explanation helps, you can find more info here https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer

My question is that. I'm trying to get the likes of a facebook page with facebook apigraph explorer but I can't get the count. I have look for other answers but they don't work to me so I'm thinking that it is because I'm not administrator, could be ?
I think that it is a simple thing so it have to be possible, as I can see the likes of a page entering in it on facebook.
I know that with /namepage/likes I can get all the likes but I need the count of all of them. For example:
humorcabron/likes?fields=likes.limit(1).summary(true)
but I don't get the count of all of them.
Plese could you tell me How can i get the number of likes and what I'm getting?
Solved the previous versions of the api (before 2.5) works like I said at first
humorcabron?fields=likes.summary(true). At newer versions what I was looking for is humorcabron?fields=fan_count

I am curious; is it at all possible to somehow get data about the locations of likers (those who have a public location anyway) on facebook pages?
I'm merely curious for statistical reasons whether A or B is more popular in country Z, etc....
I assume its not possible without a bit of coding but any points as to what would be the way to look into creating something to trawl a likes list?
There's the page_fans_country metric of the Page's insights edge, e.g.
/cocacola/insights/page_fans_country?period=lifetime
to get the lifetime likes by country for the CocaCola page. You can use this with an App Access Token like this:
GET https://graph.facebook.com/cocacola/insights/page_fans_country?period=lifetime&access_token={app_access_token}
where {app_access_token} is the App Access Token you want to use.

I want to know if there is a way to get through facebook api information about the tagged places of my friends without asking them for permission?
furthermore can I get the tagged places of users that are not in my friends list.
It seems that this was once possible using the /checkin endpoint however at this point in time it looks like this method is no longer available.
Taken from the Facebook documentation:
This document refers to a feature that was removed after Graph API v1.0.
From the changelog, you can see that this feature was totally removed:
Endpoints no longer available in v2.0:
...
/me/checkins has been removed, along with the user_checkins permission.
...
Further down in the document they continue to list the permissions that have been removed:
All friends_* permissions have been removed. They include:
...
friends_checkins
...
It seems that it is simply no longer possible to access the data you need. FYI this changelog information was posted on April 30th, 2014 - so it's been like this for a while.

If I have the URL of a facebook thread from a user's messages, is there a way to get the id of that thread? I get how to construct a url given an id, but not the other way around.
The URL can have two formats:
https://www.facebook.com/messages/123456789
or
https://www.facebook.com/messages/<username>
I need to be able to handle both cases.
Thanks.
SELECT thread_fbid
FROM unified_thread
WHERE single_recipient = <USER ID>
Doc: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/unified_thread
This gives exactly what you want. The problem is:
(#298) You must be a developer of the application
Please read unified_thread still not open for public?
So, one actual workaround would be to loop on all the threads from graph.facebook.com/me/inbox?fields=to as long as you didn't find one which:
has only 2 participants (because some threads are group conversations and you don't want them),
and contains the participant who is the person represented by a user ID/username.
This has to be done manually, using your favorite language.

This morning dynamically generated links to FB pages from our app stopped working. Link to a page like this http://www.facebook.com/pages/125567350861413 used to work just fine, now it requires page name http://www.facebook.com/pages/Daniels-Real-Estate/125567350861413
Why would this be changed? Was there a problem with old pages link format?
We tweaked our code to take into account page name and made it work. But if a user changes the name of a page the link to this page will break, until we refresh the list of pages in our db. We'll write a chron job that will refresh the list of page names for all users using our app multiple times a day, but we'd prefer not having to do that.
Anyone else ran into this issue? What was your workaround (other than the above)?
While this is probably an off-topic question, you can get the page url using the graph api:
http://graph.facebook.com/125567350861413 and looking at the link property. As to why Facebook changed this, you would have to ask them at their developer group or log a bug.
