FB Ads Manager problem



Problem solved: was using an old version of firefox, when upgraded the ad manager works fine!

I wished! I still get very frequent glitches in the tool... some of the errors I get frequently: It'd select a different country from the one I chose, it'd skip pass and not include the keywords (images as well!) I want my ad to appear for and it gets "retarded" and keeps selecting then deleting keywords that are similar, for example, red flower and red flower shop (I'd have to manually type in the keywords when that happens :321:) I give up... :crying:

Nobody else is having these problems. Make sure you're running it in a separate window and don't interfere with the window when its running.
 
Au contraire my friend. I've seen it fuck up my bid prices just last night. I'm not a big fan of the tool, plus I can make ads faster by hand.

^ oh yes i didn't mention this. it happens to me every time. i set 0.1 as my bid price in the tool and the bid price for the some of the ads ended up at 0.5

Maybe they don't say it?

I've done everything imaginable, including what u said above, to try and fix the problem before bitching on here.
 
When I first started using the tool, I too thought it had bugs in it. But as I went on, I figured out all the problems I had encountered were caused by myself.

Dude, that's not the script fucking up bid prices. That's just Facebook's interface. Back when I did ads manually, this shit happened all the time. I would clearly set bids, region, or ages - only to look at the ad later and see that the settings were way off with some random values.

And how do you make ads faster by hand? Creating ads manually takes about 1 minute per ad with their fucking slow interface. The script flies through each ad creation in about 10-15 seconds.

So how did you fix it? Delete them and redo again?

I agree.

Every now and then I have some problems but I assume it's either facebook or my shitty satellite internet connection.

I've never had the bid price be different when I create them manually... Why would one ad be priced at 65c when the rest were 45c? My vote is still a shitty script. I've tried many versions and I do not like it one bit.

When you have a handful of decent ad copies you can just create similar ads and split test images. I can do 50 ads in 10 minutes. I didn't time it last night, but it seemed to take at least 20 minutes for 40 ads.

That's because Facebook auto populates the bid price based on your demo. If it takes a while for Facebook to figure it out and send it back (again this depends on Facebook and your connection), it can undo the bid price set by the script once in a while. Big deal, you might have to change a few bids. If you want to sit and click through the same screens hundreds of times a day/week, go ahead. It's pretty funny comparing that to a script running in the background while you can be doing other things.
 
tools arnt worth useing either way ....
in most cases i creat ads faster by hand : / ...

plus reviewers will dissaprove your ads even if they get a slight wiff that you've used a bot : /

Stick to manual dudes automatics for pussies ; / <3
 
If you make your ads faster by hand than with an automater then you really should just go ahead and shoot yourself in the face now.

It'll save you some time.

Happened all the time for me. Even random ass countries like Uganda or Peru had been replaced by my clearly specified United States or whatever. Specify a range like 18-25, only to see the ad later says "45 and older". Wtf?! This was all without the script, and yes it happens sometimes with the script - but again, not the script's fault.

Well, most times you wanna do some serious split-testing, cycling through many different age brackets, several ad copies, and split genders. Try creating 300+ ads for a split-test like that manually.. :)

The more people who believe this, the more monies I can make. :)
