How to Archive Facebook Comments (pizzagate)
submitted 5.8 years ago by IShallNotFear
This is a companion post to my recent write up about James Alefantis' Paris trip in 2015. https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/3071535
When I was working on my last post, I couldn't get the Facebook comments to archive. I tried all of my normal methods (screen shot, cache, translate, archiving on one site and then archiving that on another site) but nothing was showing up correctly. For example, I wanted to archive James Alefantis' response on this post. https://www.facebook.com/artem.shcherbakov.96/posts/10155422228960570 However, you can't see the comments on archive.is (http://archive.is/kducw) or on web.archive.org (http://web.archive.org/web/20190122031207/https://www.facebook.com/artem.shcherbakov.96/posts/10155422228960570). This is because the comments require an additional click to open on a computer. However, this is not the case on a phone. When I switched the links to the mobile version, the comments appeared. All I had to do was replace "https://www" with "m" (https://m.facebook.com/artem.shcherbakov.96/posts/10155422228960570). This archived perfectly. (http://archive.li/kIBn6) I was then able to copy the link from "view previous comments" in order to archive comments that didn't fit on the first page. (http://archive.li/ybT7P)
This one isn't a complex fix. However, I just thought I would make a post for those who come across this issue later. No need to struggle as much as I did.
I will cross-post this on AskPizzagate for future reference. EDIT: Here's the link https://voat.co/v/AskPizzagate/3072652

Since this isn't directly about pizzagate, but is valuable info, WHY NOT MAKE THIS A STICKY?

Nice. I'm giving this the "ProTip" flair, IShallNotFear. :-)
