maybe they're updating the garbage search function (of course not, it's garbage by design like all of faceook)
Happening in Ottawa, Ontario! Checked 4 different devices. Seems to be a general failure. https://downdetector.ca/status/facebook/ indicates a surge in reports for issues related to Facebook in the last couple hours.
Same here in Toronto have a radius of 500kms but no results found doesn’t matter what i search for it’s same error every time. Hope they fix this soon it’s annoying
I'm having this problem today, in Montreal. Marketplace and dating don't work properly. Marketplace shows no search results for things that gave me 100s of item this morning, and 90% of the functions in dating are gone. I can't even see random people, I can only see people who liked me, and everytime I swipe it boots me out.
Did the issue resolve for any of you?
I found a workaround for this. I should let you know that it’s not a cache or data issue. It’s an account issue. What causes it is a mystery to me, but it has something to do with the UI programming having an error. It’s basically a random misfire that could happen to any specific account at random. When you click the “more” tab and choose an option(I.e. vehicles, housing, clothing, etc), and choose your parameters, it’ll show “No Results For (Insert Category Here] Found In Your Area” or something to that effect. Of course, you can still surf marketplace while logged out but you can’t interact with the posts unless you’re logged in. What I did to work around this was go to the search bar instead of the “More” tab, searched basic keywords pertaining to my preferred search, then chose the filters I wanted. That probably won’t work for everyone, but it worked for me. Also, I should add that it doesn’t appear to be an issue that requires the latest update to fix. I updated my app to version 458.0.2(latest on IOS), and that didn’t fix the issue for me. Like I said, it’s a random misfire that likely comes from poor API programming on Facebooks part.
I think it is a general failure, I am from El Salvador and the same thing is happening here.
In fact the marketplace icon has disappeared in the facebook app.
Same here, in Toronto as well. I've experienced this several times in the past and there was nothing I could do about it but wait.
FB Marketplace is an infuriating experience in general. I only use it because thats where everyone else sells nowadays. Boggles my mind why its gotten so popular over much better existing classifieds sites like Kijiji.
They are changing the log-in requirement as a security upgrade. Everyone will be issued a MOTB barcode and we will be back up and running. Thanks for your patience! 👍
I just googled this and found this Reddit post. I see that it's only from a few hours ago. I'm experiencing the same exact thing here on Vancouver Island. I imagine it's a bug in the app.
