Fix issues with Facebook API in the OpenCart module
22 USD In OpenCart, there is a module for integrating Facebook and Instagram via API, OAuth, and Webhook.
After opening the module page in the browser, the number of API requests to Facebook starts to increase, and the number of errors gr:get:InvalidID also rises. It is necessary to find what is causing the issues and fix them.
More detailed specifications with screenshots can be found here - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zJKREvYmC-iJoxYOTggGncku0JMw9Fi9qB4ixs9JR_c/
When you place a bid, please immediately indicate when you can start working and how much time it will take to fix. Thank you

Hello, Volodymyr!
I have reviewed the description and your Google document. The task is clear: we need to stop the avalanche growth of API requests and eliminate the gr:get:InvalidID errors when opening the module page.
I have been working with OpenCart and the Facebook Graph API / Webhooks integration for a long time. The symptom indicates a loop (infinite polling or incorrect rendering/recursion) when the script tries to poll outdated or invalid object IDs without a stop condition. I will also fix the output of the nickname and followers (likely due to changes in API versions).
⚡ When can I start: I am ready to begin work today / soon.
⏱ How much time is needed: * Day 1: Localization of the problem, analysis of requests and module logs, searching for the loop point.
…
Day 2: Fix, adding ID validation before sending, testing API stability.
Overall for the work: 1–2 days.
To get started, I will need access to the admin panel (test stand) and FTP/SFTP. I will be happy to help, feel free to message me!

Good day! I can start today. The situation is familiar: when opening the module page, the front starts a synchronization cycle and begins to flood requests to the Graph API — either it's a continuous polling that doesn't stop, or a product enumeration where some items do not have a valid Facebook ID in the catalog, and each such item returns gr:get:InvalidID. Errors multiply because the request is repeated on every render/interval.
Plan: first, I will look at the module logs and network requests on the page (where and how frequently the calls are made), find the initialization point — it's almost always a failed setInterval/recursion or synchronization without checking if the FB-ID exists. Then I will set a guard, remove unnecessary repeats, cache responses, and correctly map/skip items without a valid ID so that InvalidID is not generated at all. I will review the specifications from the Google Doc before starting.
Estimated: diagnostics and localization — on the day of the start, fix and check the stability of requests — another day. Question: will you provide access to the test stand (admin panel + module log files), or are you editing on the production? And what version of OpenCart — 3.x or 4.x?

Hello, I can take on the diagnosis and fix the OpenCart integration with Facebook/Instagram. Usually, such problems arise due to incorrect request cycles in the module (self-recursion, duplicate OAuth calls, or improper handling of Webhook/ID parameters). I will check the logs, the place of API call initialization, and the reason for the increase in gr:get:InvalidID, after which I will fix the source of the requests and stabilize the integration without unnecessary API calls.

Good day! I am ready to start today. OpenCart module for Facebook/Instagram integration: I will find the cause of the avalanche of API requests and errors gr:get:InvalidID, add logging/tests, fix the loop/incorrect IDs, and check the webhook/OAuth. Deadline: 3 days.

Good day. I understand the task: in the OpenCart integration module with Facebook and Instagram via API, OAuth, and Webhook, after opening the module page, the number of requests to Facebook starts to grow exponentially, and the number of errors gr:get:InvalidID increases. We need to find the cause and fix it.
I have been working with OpenCart and integrations via API for a long time, so I am familiar with the general mechanism of such a problem. The symptom, when requests start to multiply specifically upon opening the module page, usually indicates either a cycle of repeated calls during page loading (repeated token refresh or polling in a loop without a stop condition), or an invalid object or ID being passed to the Facebook Graph API, which causes InvalidID, after which the logic repeats the request again and again. I will check what exactly is triggered when opening the module, how IDs are formed in requests to the Graph API, and where there is a lack of stopping or caching to eliminate unnecessary calls and the errors themselves.
I will look at your detailed specifications with screenshots in the Google Doc to link the errors to a specific place in the module code. I can start in the near future. Regarding the timeline: first, I need to open the document and look at the module code to specify, but based on experience, a similar fix usually takes a few days, where most of the time is spent on localizing the cause, and the actual fix is usually small.
Please provide access to the module code and the environment where the problem can be reproduced. Is this a custom module or a ready-made one from the marketplace?

Good day! I carefully read the technical specifications — the task is clear.
Two problems are solved separately:
1. Nickname and number of subscribers — most likely changes in the Graph API (v14+) removed fields that were previously returned by default, they need to be explicitly requested.
2. Mass requests with gr:get:InvalidID — most likely the polling script is accessing the API with IDs that no longer exist (deleted messages, pages, or avatars). We need to find where these requests are formed, add ID validation before sending, and remove unnecessary calls.
I can start tomorrow. For diagnostics and fixes — 1-2 days depending on the volume of the module's code.

Hello!
I have reviewed the specifications. I have experience with OpenCart, API integrations, and troubleshooting similar issues where background JS/PHP code generates excessive requests and quickly hits the limits of external services.
I can check which specific function is causing the gr:get:InvalidID requests, add logging for Facebook/API responses, remove incorrect calls without breaking the current functionality of the module, and separately fix the output of the nickname/subscribers. I see in the specifications that an important criterion is that errors should not increase and API limits should not be consumed when the module page is open.
I can start today/tomorrow.

I understand the task, I have gone through the specifications, and I can take it on.
According to the description, the most suspicious areas are:
periodic AJAX requests from the admin panel;
updating the unread messages and comments counter;
fetching user or page avatars;
finding information about Facebook and Instagram pages;
requests for comments or messages that have been deleted;
… requests by ID for objects that no longer exist or have become unavailable.
These mechanisms can lead to constant requests to the Graph API, an increase in gr:get errors, and a gradual depletion of the application's available API limits.
Overall, preliminarily, I estimate 1-2 days for the timeline.
Regarding the cost, I can approximately offer 1700 UAH, or if you have a desired amount in mind, you can also let me know, and I can consider it.
Currently, I am not busy and can promptly start working after we get in touch.

Good day! I have experience with PHP/OpenCart and integrations with Facebook/Instagram Graph API, OAuth, Webhooks.
I read the specifications - both issues (disappearance of the username/followers and API limit leaks with the increase of gr:get:InvalidID) are very likely related to the code that periodically updates the client's profile data (username, number of followers, avatar) through separate API requests while polling unread messages. If the user ID in these requests becomes invalid (for example, due to a change in ID format in the Graph API or an outdated token), each polling cycle generates the error gr:get:InvalidID and consumes the limit.
Work plan:
1. Find the function(s) that make these requests (most likely in the polling script of the admin panel)
2. Add logging of the Facebook request/response to a separate file
3. Determine the exact cause of the invalid ID
4. Fix the request, restore the display of the username and followers
… 5. Check that the API limits are no longer consumed when the tab is open
Deadline: I will start today, estimated time for diagnostics + fix — 4-6 hours (possibly faster, depending on the structure of the module code).
Estimated cost: 2500-3000 UAH (for the entire scope - diagnostics, logging, fixing both issues, documentation of changes).
I am ready to start with code analysis, please provide access to the module files (FTP/SSH or archive) and the request log if available.

Volodymyr, good afternoon. I'm glad to see a task from you again.
I can take it on. From the description, it seems that after opening the module page, a repeated request to the Facebook Graph API is triggered somewhere, or the object ID is processed incorrectly, which is causing the `gr:get:InvalidID` errors.
I can start today/tomorrow after opening the Safe and access.
Time estimate: 1–2 working days for diagnostics, searching for the source of the requests, and fixing. If the problem turns out to be deeper in the OAuth/Webhook logic or the module structure, I will note that separately before making additional changes.
I work the same way as last time: first, I find the exact cause, then I fix the code and explain what specifically caused the problem.

Good day!
I have extensive experience working with PHP, OpenCart, REST API, and Facebook Graph API integrations.
I have reviewed the problem description. Judging by the symptoms, it is necessary not just to fix a specific error but to conduct a full tracing of the module's requests to the Facebook API and identify the specific functions that are causing mass calls and gr:get errors.
I plan to carry out the work in the following sequence:
• Analyze all AJAX requests of the module's page;
… • Find the functions that make periodic calls to the Graph API;
• Add detailed logging of Facebook requests and responses;
• Determine which IDs are being transmitted incorrectly;
• Identify the source of excessive API limit usage;
• Restore correct retrieval of username and followers_count;
• Eliminate the cause of gr:get errors;
• Ensure that the current functionality of the module does not change after the fixes.
After the analysis, I will provide a list of files and functions that are causing the problem, as well as a detailed report explaining the reasons and changes made.
Timeframe: 1-3 days
I can start immediately after gaining access to the code and testing environment.

Hello! I have experience working with OpenCart. I can write a modifier and modify the module code without directly altering the code in the module. I can start working on it from the 14th. It will take about 3-4 days to familiarize myself with the code. I need to check what the module might contain; the module code could be obfuscated, which would make its extension or modification impossible, and in that case, I would need to contact the module author. I will also need you to be available and provide answers to any questions I may have.

We already have a practically ready similar solution for integrating the store with external APIs, which can be quickly adapted and launched for your OpenCart. I'm available here ))
I can start today after receiving access; I estimate 1-2 working days for diagnostics and fixes.
The cost estimate is 8000 UAH.
We can go through a proper technical diagnosis - find the place where the admin panel cyclically hits the Graph API, add a separate log for the module's responses and Facebook, and remove incorrect ID requests without breaking the current functionality.
In the specifications, I see an important point - we need to not just hide errors but prove that with the module tab open, gr:get:InvalidID does not increase, limits are not consumed, and the Network is clean.
Access to the test copy of OpenCart, module files, admin panel, logs, and a test Facebook application with permissions to check requests is needed.
I would like to clarify two points:
- Is there a test store, or do we need to work on a copy of the live one?
- Can we add temporary logging during the diagnostics and test the module with the tab open for 30-60 minutes?
… Similar experience in e-commerce and integrations - https://business.ingello.com/eva - here the logic of stores, integrations, and process stability is similar.
Also relevant - https://business.ingello.com/carveli - about technical support for the store with business logic, where it is important not to break the current functionality.
About us and the work format - https://systems-fl.ingello.com/ua
As a bonus, I can suggest where to add AI classification of messages so that the module not only accepts dialogues but also helps operators respond faster.
Overall, it's fine; tasks of this type are better fixed through measurable logs and limit control - measure seven times, cut once =)
