Just used 896704ba from above. OK, this looks cool - so what's the deal? Is it totally free? Do you have pay per thousand? It's free for now, but later you'll pay?

It's funny - the first thing I learned to use WAS tables. (I just bought Ubot about 3 weeks ago) Using lists were tripping me up when I finally got to them.

Well tables are great for things like bookmarking. You want to group things together like TITLE, URL, DESCRIPTION, TAGS on one line in a table. Let's say you've got 100 URLs with different descriptions, tags etc. you want to bookmark on a particular site. The only thing that changes is the row # variable as your Ubot cycles through everything. Not even sure how you would do that with lists. Every element has it's own list? How you would look at everything at once? With a .csv file it's easy.

Thanks Lily! It worked! OK, now I gotta bitch about Seths logic. Here is the differences between the two: http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/5305/tablelistuibox.png They both start out exactly the same. "UI open file" and you dump it into a variable. There's a nice "create table from file" command, but why no "create list from file" command? You've got to "add to list", then do a "$list from file" THEN insert your variable. Someone should make a whole wiki of these short little command sequences. I haven't even started playing with all the qualifiers. Not sure how one would string them

I'm trying to add a UI box so I can easily load a text file into a list. I know I can load to a list via "add to list" then $list from file, but I can't swap text files via a UI box. This works for loading a file via the UI and creating a table with it: http://img704.imageshack.us/img704/2720/createtableui.png But when I do the same flow for a list, it doesn't work: http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/6539/createfiileui.png What the heck am I doing wrong? Is the #imported variable screwing me up? Ya know..it's these little things that are tripping me up. I didn't see an example of th

Right. That's what I meant when I said the first list. I'm wondering how one would actually append the two together. Do i need to create a third list or variable or do I need to do it on the fly somehow? You can't select two blue boxes at one time and group them together. (at least I don't think) So I started making a Ubot to scrape RSS feeds of their latest posts so I could use them within Scrapebox. It was doing a lousy job of posting a comment to my new lists, so I built my own auto commenter! (Hence, the need for random emails) My Ubot works way better than Scrapebox, only a few sites I

So I know how to generate a list of random emails, but they're all variations of @text2re.com. That's the only domain it generates? Is there some hidden preference setting where I can add other domains to randomize with? You sayin' EVERY Ubot out there only generates @text2re.com emails? Don't you think that's a major flag for UBot? I have a vague idea on how to make my own random emails. Start with 2 lists, one is random accounts, other is domains that I can randomize. Trying to think how I would combine the output of two lists into one list or variable.

Gee, wadda ya know, I was working on a Diigo bookmark last night! I didn't have any problems with that button, I had a problem with the loading of the screens. Seems if I used WAIT TILL FINISH, sometimes the page stopped and never loaded. I've uploaded the working bot that I finally got running. The two .csv files it wants are: (loaded vial UI element) Accounts .csv: USERNAME, EMAIL, PASSWORD Bookmarks .csv: TITLE, URL, DESCRIPTION, TAGS The bot will loop through as many URLs as you got. I was able to post around 40 URLs on my first try. Abs - you making any other bookmark Ubots? I've fi

Oh for cripes sakes - I've been hitting the run button so quickly when I test these things in the past that I forgot to actually SELECT something with my new UI Browse button. :-P So yes Lilly, your first tip WAS correct and my logic was correct in laying out the sequence. (except for the first set command) Thanks!

Nope. Didn't work: http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/8992/tableerror.png http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/8743/wannago.png Has anyone done this? Is it because I'm working with tables that it's so new it hasn't been done before? How hard can this be?

OK, so what am I doing wrong? I'm trying to use a UI element (UI Open File) to allow me to create a table from a file. This way I can change my data sources for different lists. Where am I going wrong? http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/3327/tableuiload.png Here's the bot as is - I've got a working version without the UI box within it. (and a basic .csv file) table-ui-load.zip

So wadda ya think? Is Stumbleupon TRYING to make it harder to automate a login, or is it just a silly interface layout? Just finished my Stumbleupon URL spammer. Damn, I'm using more IF flow commands than I thought I ever would.

Use http://www.stumbleupon.com/login.php?? Hey that's cheating! :-) Damn it, I looked for an alternative login page, I guess I should've tried "login.php" :-P Yup, I'm in now. Thanks! OK, my question still stands: is it possible to get a password in the above example? What is going on with that text field? I'm seeing this when I select OUTER HTML: <INPUT id=switch class=text tabIndex=0 value=Password name=dummyPassword jQuery1280005070277="3"> I tried all sorts of wild cards on the end there. Is it possible to somehow TAB over from the username field and do a SEND KEYS FIELD CHOS

I'm building a series of bots that need to change accounts on the same site. With IMacros you can insert the CLEAR command which clears the cache. Next time I go to that site I'm logged out and can start fresh. I noticed that CLEAR COOKIES on Ubut doesn't do this, I'm still logged in where ever I am. Is there a fast and easy way to get myself logged out (say Yahoo) without having to build an entire IF sequence where I log out if I'm logged in? Is there a way to clear the cache?

So what's the deal with the Stumbleupon password login field? I can't get anything to be inserted into it. (like a password perhaps) I've run through all the standard selections for the past hour. Is this some javascript thingy that's kicking my butt? What is the typical solution? http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/3361/stumbleuponlogin.png Attached is the ubot I've got so far. (which isn't much) Stumbleupon-login.ubot

Hey Igloo! That looks like some pretty damn impressive Ubot programming. Could you give us a hint at what's happening under the hood of it from a programmers perspective? You're saying that it can identify a Wordpress, Blogengine, etc. sites before it even does anything? Are you doing some sort of if/then routine where it's looking for specific identifiers on the page? Did you build a sub routine for each of the platforms and then combine everything, or was it easier to just start a fresh ubot each time and import them together into a huge bot? Just trying to get my head around such an unde

What about Seths Keywood Tool Tutorial? http://vimeo.com/6805724 I went through it a week ago and it shows you exactly how to scrape Googles old keyword interface.

I've been using http://www.proxybonanza.com/ Shared and private. Pretty cheap for the shared ones, and you get a bunch too.

OK, but that was my first question, what IS that code that Ubot is using?

So what programming language is Ubot using under it's GUI? Visual basic? Can I see the actual "source" code if I program/build something in Ubot? Let's say I get real good at working with Ubot and fully understand the work flow. Would I be able to take this knowledge and program directly in the "source" programming language? What sort of things is Ubot doing that's making my life easier instead of programming directly with it's "source" programming language? (other than the point and click nature of it)

I'm interested in knowing if UBot can scrape the suggested keywords from the Google keyword tool along with Local search volumes per month. Then filter out the ones that are below a certain threshold. (below 3,000 per month) Is this what you guys were talking about?

What is the preferred method of getting text/data INTO Ubot? Store it within a .csv file? (like Imacros does) Let's say I want to make a bot that posts a bookmark. I need to feed my bot Title, URL, description, keyword data. How do I enter it and where is it stored? Does $spin work for entire blocks of text or does it work for only each bracket group? Can I just insert (1) $spin in front of a 600 word formatted article?

I've got my money in hand to buy Ubot, just need to know a couple of things. How do I get text data into Ubot so I can then use it as a blog post or a bookmark description? Here's a basic scenario - I've spun out an article with The Best Spinner twenty five times and I've got a folder of 25 text documents of around 400 words each. I've got 25 wordpress blogs that I to post to. Blog #1 would get doc #1, Blog #2 would get doc #2, etc. Can Ubot access data from a folder of text files sequentially? Can Ubot access data from an Excel or .csv file? What is the preferred method of inputting data?
