Hello i'm trying to get all the images from a facebook group using facebook API
i have a problem i can't get all the photos using
$facebook->api_client->call_method('Photos.get', array('subj_id' => $uid));
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Photos.get
what i'm using now is the method
$albums = $facebook->api_client->photos_getAlbums($uid, NULL);
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Photos.getAlbums
and then loop for ever album on
$facebook->api_client->call_method('Photos.get', array('subj_id' => $uid));
then i add every new array results to my big array
$big_array = array_merge($big_array,$result_array_from_that_call);
2 problems occurs here :
1- sometimes this calls fails - i think because of too many calls per second -
2- the request takes a v.long time to process
is there a better way to do that?
Thanks guys
Cheers
EDIT :: i tried to get all the images using
$facebook->api_client->call_method('Photos.get', array('subj_id' => $uid));
and using $uid as the group ID but that's doesn't work " don't know why maybe because all the images is listed in groups "
