I'm trying to do some textmining with Rfacebook, but whenever I enter code for finding pages which include a string:

searchPages("facebook", token = fb_oauth, n = 10000)

I get back this error:

0 pages Error in searchPages("facebook", token = fb_oauth, n = 10000) : 
  No public page mentioning the string were found

I already know that the command searchFacebook has become deprecated since the second version of Rfacebook, and I have seen one thread mention that searchPages has also become deprecated. Am I doing something wrong or is this command simply no longer available?

I've also tried using code from this thread (Facebook search by keyword) but I run into the same problem since it uses searchPages.

If searchPages is deprecated, any suggestions on how to still get data about key words through facebook?
