Looks pretty cool!

What if I don’t use FB?

Just kidding, Sean. Nice work, as usual!

Should this show how many likes you have in total or does it only show new facebook likes from the moment you start the mirror?

@MSimonart
This shows the number of likes which specific page has received. Not for personal account. If you have store or shop or any other page, this could be useful when you lay on the wall in your store.

MSimonart

Ok yeah perfect, got it working. Thanks ;)

How can I add this to mine?

@mykle1 Okay, so I did find that before and it is (at least for me) extremely confusing. I cant get past the making of an app. It says to just pick one but they all come with some sort of additional set up that I cant figure out.

Is there one in particular I should use to make this easier?

I am an absolute beginner with all of this and its only by copy and paste I was able to get as far as I did with the basic magic mirror set up.

I dont even know how to update it. Believe me Ive tried on both of these for hours.

Installation and Configuration is not so difficult. The only hard part is to get proper “token” from Facebook.
Where are you stuck now? I can help you. Give me a mail (eouia0819@gmail.com) or a Telegram chat (@eouia)

@sean wow thank you! Email sent

I’m not sure what I may have done wrong, but it’s not showing the current amount of likes that my page has…

Page says this: Total Page Likes as of Today: 574

MMM-fbPageCounter shows: 0

would you be able to help me figure out what the problem is?

Hellonoonan

I cant even get by step 2. I get this error

{“access_token”:“EAAE2ASglvOABADkkXv4DXzN0BNIGSbEpfcPk9ZBLtZAZBSgh1pgKueD0ZBbpw9jio4dzeTYpIkVkZBhwByiCe68eE9TuiSaHN1KNxiMDN5tdodeRjMyHUCTBoGwZBTBFk347mXfff3v6Xnk84uZBV9ZAjLtkqlPIFmoZD”,“token_type”:“bearer”,“expires_in”:5184000}

any idea what Im doing wrong?

justjim1220

@hellonoonan

this is the token you need for the next step…

@justjim1220 I think I may have gotten the info I need. What files do I need to change? Sorry I have no clue what Im doing. I added the code to the config.js file but it doesnt come up. Are there other files I need to alter?

Thanks

justjim1220

@hellonoonan

shouldn’t be, you just need to make sure you put in the correct tokens and codes in the right places.

Did you go all the way through the steps?

The last output should look something like this…

{
   "data": [
      {
         "access_token": "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321",
         "category": "Computer Repair Service",
         "category_list": [
            {
               "id": "123567890987654321",
               "name": "Computer Repair Service"
            },
            {
               "id": "123567890987654321",
               "name": "Business Service"
            },
            {
               "id": "123567890987654321",
               "name": "Business Service"
            }
         ],
         "name": "Hallock Technical Services",
         "id": "123567890987654321",
         "tasks": [
            "ANALYZE",
            "ADVERTISE",
            "MODERATE",
            "CREATE_CONTENT",
            "MANAGE"
         ]
      }
   ],
   "paging": {
      "cursors": {
         "before": "NDAxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
         "after": "NDAxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
      }
   }
}

You need the access_token & the LAST “id” from this data…

For example:

{
			disabled: false,
			module: "MMM-fbPageCounter",
			header: "Hallock Technical Services",
			position:"bottom_left",
			config: {
				access_token: "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123567890987654321",
				page_id: "123567890987654321",
				refresh_interval_sec: 12, //minimum 10. If your daily visitors of page are under 10, use 30 as this value.
				size: "huge"
			}
		},

Hope this helps!

@hellonoonan

This is what I meant by the LAST “id”

from this section:

"name": "Hallock Technical Services",
         "id": "123567890987654321",
         "tasks": [
            "ANALYZE",
            "ADVERTISE",
            "MODERATE",
            "CREATE_CONTENT",
            "MANAGE"

@justjim1220 I did not get that. I keep getting errors. Ive only been able to get the basic magic mirror modules to work by help forums and copy/paste. This is beyond my knowledge. Honestly Id rather venmo you like $10 to do this for me haha. It seems like its easy for those who know what theyre doing but I dont.

I have the screen up in my office similar to what the OP shows (without any mirror) just as an information screen and I think this would be a nice touch to boost social media presence.

Any interest in taking on the job?

Not sure what venmo is, but no need to send money!
