Question

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 “

Answer 1

the best solution was to output the album and then the user clicks on an album and check the images inside it
