It's not that simple, the id returned for a post should allow to like/unlike the post according to documentation. Liking works, but unliking does not in cases where the post_id returned has the profile_id prefixed. So you have to remove the profile_id from the post_id to unlike. The reason why developers have to reverse engineer is that the Facebook platform doesn't and did never work the way it is documented. Here's a bugreport for that problem which hasn't been solved since last February! (The top comment here with a workaround for that issue was created by myself: https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/539328566085833?browse=...) |

I've suffered from having designed bad/limited APIs before and watching as people dig into bits I didn't want them to dig into, limiting what I can do in the future.
Not sure on the best way to avoid it, but I guess it's a 'nice problem to have' since at least people are using your API.
