Hi, so I post around 30 facebook market place ads a month, its a super tideious task and could easily be done by a computer. The issue is, is that facebook has such a weird structure when I inspect elements. the image attached is a example of it, the class names are this weird code, and I cant find any names, ids, on these elements to give to Selenium. at the moment I use py auto GUI + selenium to click around the web page, but this is super hard coded and doesn't work all the time. so please let me know what you guys recommend

Facebook does it utmost best to make it HARD. so yes, auto gui/hotkey-like solutions are probably the only way..
