Javascript Question
How to get the ID of a page from the url?
I need to get this: 1606321809619553
From that: https://www.facebook.com/Free-Travel-Vacations-1606321809619553/?ref=br_rs
This: barackobama
From that: https://www.facebook.com/barackobama/
and This: barackobama
From that: https://www.facebook.com/barackobama
I tried this code:
identifier = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf("/"))
but it only work when there is not the final slash url ( like in the last case above ).

Answer Source
you can leverage regexp
var re = /^https:\/\/www\.facebook\.com\/([-\w]+)/;
re.exec("https://www.facebook.com/Free-Travel-Vacations-1606321809619553/?ref=br_rs")[1]
=> "Free-Travel-Vacations-1606321809619553" //then use string manipulation
re.exec("https://www.facebook.com/barackobama/")[1]
=> "barackobama"
re.exec("https://www.facebook.com/barackobama")[1]
=> "barackobama"
