better name parsing for facebook groups

Hey this is an issue I resolved and would like to commit to your open-source project.

Right now your package only groups the first user name on a given facebook page. This is fine for pages but terrible for groups, which always have many posts from many users.

I added support for grabbing the author names from every post in a FB group, instead of just the first author on a FB page.

Is this an open source project, or will my solution be only available to me?

Hi @lrudolph333! I've been looking for a fix for this issue as I am trying to use this project for facebook groups instead of facebook pages. I hope you can share the changes you made soon!

@shaikhsajid1111 I have these changes committed locally, however I don't have permission to push or create branches on this repo. I'm getting a 403 error when I attempt either of these, who are you allowing pushes from on this repo? You may have to adjust the repo settings.

Hey apologies on the delay, I just opened a PR with my changes from my forked repo. Before I was trying to merge from a branch I made off your repo.

Let me know what you think.
