Hi, I bought Ubot standard edition, back in 2014 I think. Even though Ubot is supposed to be for the non-programmer, it always seemed too complicated to me, so I have never really used it. But I would like to try again. I need to replace a scraper program. I still have the setup files and the license key, but since the dev has gone out of business, it can't phone home to verify the license. And the computers I have it on have died. I have been watching some of the how-to videos on youtube, but I still don't have a clue what to do. I'm hoping that someone can sort of give me an outline of wh

Does your program get the businesses email address?

I did that! (went to the page and logged in - yay!). Actually a bit more than that. The sites are already installed and a theme uploaded and activated. I want to be able to choose one site from a dropdown list and have the bot go to the log in page and login. I've read all the commands and some of the functions. Although I'm quite confused, I think I can see that there are several ways to do it. I do want to log in to the first site in the list and then go through a list of things to set that site up, and then go to the next one, login, etc... But I first just want to login, and then run t

Thanks for the advice. I did print out the help files (had to go buy a new ink cartridge!) and will read them whenever I get a chance. I would rather read than watch videos, cuz I can go at my own speed - I get impatient watching videos! And thanks for the ideas, that is what I was looking for, rather than a step-by-step answer. I really want and need to master this software, but at the same time, don't have a lot of extra time to give to it. Catch 22?

I thought maybe someone could point me to which video would cover this. Is there a place online to print out the commands and parameters/functions all at once, rather than page-by-page through the help guide?

Hi, I am just getting started. I want to set up some WP sites, all pretty much the same way, so I'm thinking maybe there could be a dropdown box for the urls to navigate to, and for the usernames and passwords connected to them. Where would I start with this? Is there a certain tutorial vid that addresses it? Thanks!

Thanks VaultBoss, but I don't think that would work for me. The file is over 10g in size, so I wouldn't want to overload any of my servers by working with it, and I don't have php/mysql/etc set up on any of my computers. Wouldn't there be a way to loop thru the file and create a new file with the lines that have the "abc" at the certain positions?

I have this huge stock file, it has about 1 1/2 million lines, which is more than my database can handle (MS Access), so I have to pull only the lines I really need. What I need is something like: if position 283 thru 286 = abc, then save the line to a new text file. How would I go about this? Thanks!
