PHP based facebook ads submitter, works as of 3rd October. I use this myself so I am constantly changing it to work with Facebook, said I might as well release it if I'm fixing it the whole time.

Self-hosted script, requires PHP, curl, mysqli and ioncube loader. Yes, source is encoded so you've to take a leap of faith that your account details aren't being phone home. Use Wireshark on your linux box to sniff all packets if you're not sure.

-Supports multiple accounts
-Split test nearly anything
-Bulk upload of images for split testing
-Can use split test varibales in ad copy and URL. eg
'Chat to hot women in [[state]] now' and the script replaces [[state]] with split tested state.

Here's some screenshots, video coming soon:
Split test ads page, note the split test Images pane. You can bulk upload images and then select as many to split. You can split by age ranges, countries, genders, location, whatever.

Main page


Price is $150 which includes the inevitable updates as Facebook change their ad submission. I use this software the whole time myself so it's regularly updated. PM for more details.

yeah, big security risks but all i can say is i'm not sniffing passwords

i've had a few sales, people seem happy once they get it working

monchi954

Where can I get this ?????

oneano

I have the money waiting, but I would like to see someone from WF verify that this works.

Xdreamer

Does it works with different facebook GUI languages? Mine was set to German and the fb ads manager didn't worked until I changed it to english...

yes, not many sales though. i provide full support and have slowly coded more and more installation gotchas in, so installation is easier. for example, in default cPanel settings, open_basedir is off which breaks the script.

contact me for a link to a demo installation if you're interested.

Dude.. supply some copies at a discounted rates to get some reviews, guarenteed after you have some reviews you'll sales will come!

Coppers rules.. who would want to talk to sober Irish women?

harrymouni

there already is a few users, i've just got to ask them to post reviews.

lacrosse_20

Doesn't look like they're playin ball. I'd be happy to take a review copy and post my honest opinion of it

ok real quick: the tool does work. The initial bugs are fixed. the developer is a good guy and has been responsive to updates and has also implemented my suggestions to improve the tool.

the only major thing I don’t like about it is that it’s not open source - so yes, you’ll have to take a leap of faith if you want to use this software.

harrymouni

Added support for day-parting of Facebook ads. This really has nothing to do with the exisiting script. You enter your FB account details, select campaigns to scrape ads of and then select which ads to daypart. A cron script runs every 5 minutes and will run/pause any ads that need to be. I've been using it myself for the last week, seems to work OK.

cryptix

yeah, you're right. it's more fun to stare at unused licenses. good luck bros.

harry, I just got this last week so I still have a few questions.

1) How do you update each FB account login info? I had to reset the passwords on one of my accounts and can't find a way to edit it in your app.
2) Do you have an update? How do we get notified of your newest versions?

Thanks, so far the rest of it's working pretty well.

leebo1010

one other thing:
3) Can you add a variable delay in between submitting the ads?

harrymouni

1) No, I never coded that in. Go into the accounts table in the database using phpmyadmin or whatever and edit the password for whatever account you need edited. If you can't do this, send me an email
2) Updates sent by email at the moment. If you're looking for the dayparting update, it's still a bit buggy, I havn't mass-mailed it yet. Email me if you want to test it.

leebo1010

That's ok then, I'll wait for a more stable version. What about question #3 though? Can you code in a way to set a delay in between FB campaign ads being uploaded?

Thanks Harry.

budicemerlang

I got recommendation from my friend while i am looking FB ads tools, is it working and stable ?

harrymouni

yep, still working and relatively stable, Facebook don't seem to be changing much these days

Makavelimob

whats meant by relatively stable? interested in buying but liked to know whats buggy before purchasing

harrymouni

jesus, like a politican analyzing words! yes, it works fully, submits ads, split test ads, etc.

i meant relatively stable as facebook aren't changing stuff much. there's only been 1 update because facebook changed something. the other updates have been new feature requests

leebo1010

I'm reporting back to say that this tool is great. I made a couple of mistakes as I was learning how to use it, but they were minor things. Super stable and very easy to use.

Harry, I just sent you a question via ICQ. Thanks!

leebo1010

Harry,
Looks like we have an issue. The tool no longer is caching the account settings. I can only create NEW campaigns rather than split testing ads under the same campaign.

I tried this on a couple of my servers and accounts and it's all the same issue.

Please let me know when you have a fix for this.
Thanks!

harrymouni

Yep, the Facebook changed something, fix sent out. Sorry for the delay.

leebo1010

Harry, I added the patch, but I'm getting an error message when refreshing the cache:
<br />
<b>Warning</b>: preg_replace_callback() [<a href='function.preg-replace-callback'>function.preg-replace-callback</a>]: Requires argument 2, 'Facebook::replace_unicode_escape_sequence', to be a valid callback in <b>/home/gtrack/public_html/fb/php_fbads_manager/facebook.php</b> on line <b>75</b><br />
Campaigns and connections have been cached for (email here)

I added the mbstring to my hosting, I was getting this message before adding it and still getting it after.

Thanks for the support.

harrymouni

They way I coded it required php 5.2.3 or later. I've sent you the fix for all PHP 5 versions. I should have tested it more, sorry.

leebo1010

Thanks for the fix. I'll try it now and let you know if I have any more issues.

leebo1010

Update: thanks for the fix. That works.

One of the things I didn't follow up on was the issue with having multiple accounts under one facebook ads account. It looks like this:



Only one of my accounts is like this, but the FB ads tool doesn't recognize it, so none of the ads show up. I am testing another FB uploader and that one does recognize it, so would you be able to code that into yours?

Thanks again...

harrymouni

i've never even heard of that. alright, i'll look into it, give me a few days

sak3d

harrymouni

Sleeping? I don't get it.

I'll setup wireshark on your linux box and you log all traffic for anyone who doubts.

sraza

Just ordered and sent a message. Haven't gotten the link yet.

harrymouni

sorry, emailed now. hit me up if you run into any problems

veneficus

any reviews on this? worth getting?

polarbacon

Its a decent script.....atm I prefer it to the other desktop one that is out now.


Its nice because it allows you to see the ads.....I have uploaded over hundreds of ads with very little issue......

It does seem that it likes to do it in smaller batches (less than 20 at a time) but that may be a fb issue....

either way I would recommend it.....it could use some UI improvements as its not very pretty....but it does what it needs to do......well

Destro

How is the dayparting script working? is it still buggy and can I test it? PM me details. thanks!

harrymouni

Dayparting working pretty well now, the few small bugs were ironed out.

But the CTR/CPC stats by hour was a lot more work than I thought, not ready yet.

uplinked

Harry's the man.
I negotiated a $50 discount in exchange for a review copy, so after shipping him $100 via paypal, he got me setup quick and rightuous.

Less than 24 hours after mailing out the money, I had this motherfucker up and running on my VPS. Installation was relatively painless, if you've ever installed a PHP app before, but homeboy needs to polish up his install instructions cause I don't think there was even a readme.

The product works fucking great. In the last week, I've gotten over 100 ads through, and probably spent less than an hour total in creating/submitting them. Generating creatives is the worst part of being an affiliate (for me), so this thing really takes the load off.

Don't mind the ugly-duck interface; as a coder, I understand that making software that "looks good" takes 2-3x as long as just the same software that "works well" -- Harry focused on the latter, and left the former aside, and I fully support that decision. His emphasis on handling their edgecases and supporting their full featureset really shows as you're using the product.

I've got a multivariate subid tracking system, and being able to pass %IMGID%, %AGE% and %GENDER% in the URL lets me do awesome, awesome optimization with very little hassle. Haven't tried dayparting yet (Harry, do I need to setup a cronjob for this?) but every other feature works flawlessly.

This script is highly recommended for anyone who's got better shit to do than click "Create Similar Ad" for 4 hours a day, but still wants to make money on Facebook.

+Rep Harry, thanks for the awesome product.

Does the intern url field cloak the real url?

harrymouni

Cheers for the review uplinked!

@ecgta3, yea, it cloaks real URLs so you can geo-targetted offers in.

patje72

Well I am interested, but I cannot PM. Maybe you can PM me?

l.simon.89

What exactly other systems are out there like this one? Just to compare...

mindcryme

this guy definitely doesn't respond to emails or pms anymore..
