Facebook just changed the format for their "Recent Friends" Section and the add to mobwars links are no longer able to be generated.

Would it be possible to update the script so that it works again with the new facebook changes? We'd be eternally grateful!

I've updated the script, but I'm getting 'invalid user' messages when I try to use the links, even though the links are correct... let me know what you see.

Hi, Thanks for the update Dave. I just installed the new version and I'm not getting any <add> links. I included the http://www.facebook.com/friends/?added&ref=tn as well as http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/friends/?added&ref=tn But for some reason the Add links aren't popping up.</add>

It might have to do with how Facebook does so much in Ajax - so clicking on the "recent friends" link doesn't actually load a new page, and so the greasemonkey script doesn't re-run.

If you right-click the 'Recently Added' link and open in a new tab/window, you should get the links.

hmmm... strange, it's not working for me. the links are no longer appearing :( I tried your suggestion. I uninstalled and reinstalled and added the latest url http://www.facebook.com/friends/?added&ref=tn Still no go. Are the links appearing for you still? Maybe FB changed something again? Anyone else experiencing thesame thing or are you guys able to have the links appear?

no one else has tried it out to report anything?? :( I'm running Firefox 2.0.... would that make a difference? I'm still not getting the links to pop up. *ughhh* :(

It was working for me yesterday and days before that, but not today :(

still looks like it works for me - are you opening the 'recently added' page in a new tab/window?

Weird...now it works! I tried all the steps above yesterday with no results. And yet today it works!

Hey guys,
been reading all the topics here and even followed all the advices you gave. No success, the links will not show up at all. Any ideas?

Thanks
