When I go to Twitter, I see 20 odd tweets ready to scrape. But if I scroll to the bottom of the page, it keeps adding more Tweets. Before, I am sure there was a button that you used to click for more tweets, right? So what can you do now? If I want to scrape I sizeable page of tweets, I figure I will need to load the page and then scroll that page a few times, then do the scrape. How do I get ubot to scroll so more tweets are added? Thanks, Jon

I've tried this bot but I get a whole load of html junk in there. Anyone got an update?

Totally agree DjProg.

Ok, gotcha. That makes sense. Thank you.

Not quite sure how that would work. I want to have multiple user/password/article situations going on, where the bot would loop round and process each set.

I would like to create a bot that can login with user/password to a site, then submit a couple of paragraphs of text. I thought about having this in some csv file. Can you have a csv file with paragaphs of text or does it become a problem because you want a new line in there and have to have everything in quotes an it can't cater for line breaks etc? If I have a csv with this data in (if its possible) can I then read that into a list in Ubot? Thanks, Jon

Thank you.

Yes, you are right. It is in an iframe. How do I deal with that?

Its very frustrating when you have a long script and you then have to delete some sections. Grrr!

I am trying to click the OK button in WordPress, which edits the slug. Then fill in a variable into the field and click the OK button. It doesn't seem to be working. Anyone achieving this ok? Is it something to do with it using Javascript or Ajax? Also, how can I edit a Page content area that already has text in it? I just want to replace that text with a variable. Jon

It would be really helpful if I could comment out a node, so that if I am stuck on something I can just grey it out and let the script run but ignoring those nodes. Is this possible? Thanks, Jon

I know nothing of this VPN!

I want to create some account creation scripts that will obviously need testing. But at the same time, I don't want to get my regular IP address banned for any of these services. What do you do to prevent this? Jon

I'm running a script and then it fails. But I don't know where it fails. And there is no button to step through each node one at a time. Why not number the nodes and have the window popup what node the error was on? How do you deal with this issue? Thanks, Jon

Are there any link clicking tutorials around here that show how to click on each of the different types of links there are?

Sure thing.

In cpanel > Domain Manager tab > Assign a domain to your cPanel account, I can't seem to click this last link. I get an error saying I should assign an attribute. But I have. If I run the assign node and click node manually, they work. But not in the continuous script. Any ideas why? Thanks, Jon

Cool, thanks guys.

Lets say I want to create a directory submission script. I get the bot to create an account and login. It clicks the add site button. Next, I have to populate a form with my standard data. But one of those options is to pick the Category. Is there any way to pause the script so you can manually choose that aspect yourself? Then have the script continue? Thanks, Jon

I have tried to create a script that loads a csv into a table, creates a list and UI, then populates that UI with the contents of that list, but I keep getting the following error: "There was an error loading the bot. Some data may be missing, but we have loaded as much as we could. Please check your work." Then it deletes a node. Odd! My script is: 1. create table from file 2. add to list 3. ui list box Where do you think I'm going wrong?

I want to create a two column list. Can I do that displaying two columns? Also, If I select one of the list items in column one, I want to populate a field with the corresponding item in column two. Any ideas on how I might do this? Thanks, Jon

Any ideas on how you might scrape a sentence from a webpage that contains your keyword phrase? Just want the sentence and nothing else. I believe there is a new "contains" qualifier if this helps. Thanks, Jon

Lets say you want to create a bot to make 1,000 Twitter accounts. You would need a different IP address each time. What do you do? have uBot scrape some proxies or what? Maybe there is some standard library code we can call on this forum? I'm thinking this must be such a common requirement that there is a best practice solution. Anyone? Thanks, Jon
