Uploading profile pic - twitter

gabel · November 13, 2012

that`s really weird, make sure you have the latest flash version , maybe that`s an issue

Twitter Dominator · November 13, 2012

Here's a quick demo bot , it includes an Avatar folder where you should place your images

haha i wish that was the problem, but nope, all up to date :/

i actually find that sometimes you have no choice but to force a removal of flash and then a completely new fresh installation after running ccleaner

earthlingj · November 15, 2012

did that. still not working tearsss in my eyezzz

earthlingj · November 19, 2012

who is lilly? why does she work with support?

I put in a support ticket about this. explaining everything. how we are trying to get profile pics to work.. how poisedon shared his source.. and it works for some but not everyone.. so with the same source.. how come the problems?

I then linked her to this thread..

her response?

the forum is for help within the coumminity.. please submit a ticket with the problem.

so im like... i just did that? but okay.. so i submit another ticket.. with the problem.. again.. linking to the forum thread for an example..

and she tells me the same freaking thing???

"Hello,

Again, the forum is for getting input from other UBot users.

If you are having an issue, present the issue in a ticket.

Thank you."

I assume that means she doesnt know and their is no solution? im shocked how shitty support is.

P0s3id0n · November 19, 2012

Well submit a ticket with no link to the forum just lay out your issue and share with here the source and tell her that is not working that you need it working.

earthling- Did Lilly answer your ticket? Most of the time the support I get from her is good, but sometimes it seems like it takes way too many messages back and forth for her to understand what I'm asking. Lately it's been solid, though. (and she's seth's sister, btw, or something like that)

I'm having this same problem. I just get the header image and it stays on an infinate loop. I will work on it some more, but if you got an answer to your ticket that works, then it would save me (and I'm sure others) a lot of headache if you could share it with the forum.

illmill · November 25, 2012

Okay, I have just about got it. You need to change the way it looks for the element to change for the file upload. What I did is click on "Choose Photo" and then use the camera tool to select Choose existing photo. The only thing is that the popup looks different from the header one. I have attached a screenshot and the amended ubot file. I just don't know shit about javascript. Could someone who does take a look at this and post a different javascript code that will work for uploading a random file? Or is there a different way all together to do this?

WTF, why can't I find the button to click to upload an attachment? ugggghhhh, ok, here's the part of the code I'm referring to. I haven't uploaded an attachment since they changed the forum interface and now I can't find it to save my life...

click($element offset(<class="caret">, 1), "Left Click", "No")
wait(2)
change file field(<image="___IMAGE___2___IMAGE___">, $random list item($get files("{$special folder("My Documents")}\\Your Image Directory Here", "Yes")))
wait(2)
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\").click();")
wait(2)

This also didn't require a loop. This just brings up a popup to let me select the file to upload, but I don't know what to do after that.

EDIT: I think the way I'm selecting the path to find the files isn't correct. I'm going to shelve this for now and come back to it (already spent wayyyy too much time trying to figure this out). I figured out how to post an attachment. Here are my ubot file and screenshot. I decided to try and pull the image a different way since my directory has about 100 images and they are all named the same format (image1.jpg, image2.jpg, etc.). When I did it this way it at least pulled the right directory, but didn't select any of the images.

Guys I have being looking at this and here is the exact code that I am using. I am getting a %100 sucess rate on profile pics and they are showing just fine while sending tweets.

navigate("https://twitter.com/settings/profile", "Wait")
wait for element(<type="application/x-shockwave-flash">, "", "Appear")
run javascript("document.getElementsByName(\"user[location]\")[0].value =\"{$random list item(%location)}\";")
run javascript("document.getElementsByName(\"user[description]\")[0].value =\"{$spin($random list item(%Bio))}\";")
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\").click();")
wait for element(<id="settings-alert-box">, "", "Appear")
wait for element(<type="application/x-shockwave-flash">, "", "Appear")
change file field(<type="file">, $random list item($get files("{$special folder("Application")}\\female_pic", "Yes")))
wait(2)
loop while($not($exists(<innertext="Upload a profile image
">))) {
 change file field(<type="file">, $random list item($get files("{$special folder("Application")}\\female_pic", "Yes")))
 wait(2)
}
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\").click();")
wait(2)
wait for browser event("Everything Loaded", "")
navigate("https://twitter.com/settings/design", "Wait")
wait for element(<src="/images/themes/theme9/swatch.gif">, "", "Appear")
wait(1)
click(<src="/images/themes/theme{$rand(2, 19)}/swatch.gif">, "Left Click", "No")
wait(1)
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\").click();")
wait(1)
}

Ok since uploading to the new version of ubot today this has progressed a bit more for me. I can get to the part where it uploads the image, but in this case the dialogue box appears looking for me to set the image rather than it doing it behind the scenes.

Also, it gets cauught in that loop and the only way I could end it was to run the task manager and shut ubot that way, FYI.

P0s3id0n · November 28, 2012

just get rid of the whole lop thing man.

No need anymore. I am getting a %100 success rate with the new updated version.

just do a simple change file field it will get you an offset element media. keep the offset element but change it to type=file. That should make it work

I am busy updating many bots here but I will fix that demo code I made and post it here later on.

I got rid of the loop, but I'm having the same issue kev is. It's not changing the file at all. It opens the dialogue box rather than just selecting a file. I'm running windows 7, which shouldn't be a problem obviously. I'm wondering what the common denominator is between all of the guys who are experiencing this same problem.

P0s3id0n · November 29, 2012

here is how I am doing it guys.

navigate("https://twitter.com/settings/profile", "Wait")
wait for element(<type="application/x-shockwave-flash">, "", "Appear")
change file field($element offset(<type="file">, 0), $random list item($get files("{$special folder("Application")}\\your folder full of pics here", "Yes")))
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\").click();")
wait(2)
wait for browser event("Everything Loaded", "")
wait for element(<id="avatar_preview">, "", "Appear")
navigate("https://twitter.com/settings/design", "Wait")
wait for element(<src="/images/themes/theme9/swatch.gif">, "", "Appear")
wait(1)
click(<src="/images/themes/theme{$rand(2, 19)}/swatch.gif">, "Left Click", "No")
wait(1)
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\")

Getting a %100 success rate with that.

Do not forget to set the User Agent to IE 6 during the account creation.

It works!

I didnt think I would ever get this going to be honest, but that code (with a small bit of editing) worked for me.

Here's the slightly edited version I used:

clear cookies
define Create account {
   reset account("Female")
   set user agent("Internet Explorer 6")
   navigate("https://mobile.twitter.com/signup", "Wait")
   type text(<full name field>, "{$account data("First Name")} {$account data("Last Name")}", "Standard")
   type text(<email field>, "{$account data("First Name")}{$account data("Zip Code")}@hotmail.com", "Standard")
   type text(<password field>, $account data("Password"), "Standard")
   type text(<name="captcha_response_field">, $solve captcha(<create account link>), "Standard")
   click(<name="commit">, "Left Click", "No")
   if($exists(<innertext="Choose a username">)) {
    then {
	    click(<name="commit">, "Left Click", "No")
	    wait for element(<innertext="Turn images off">, "", "Appear")
    }
    else {
    }
   }
}
Create account()
navigate("https://twitter.com/settings/profile", "Wait")
wait for element(<type="application/x-shockwave-flash">, "", "Appear")
click(<id="profile_image_upload">, "Left Click", "No")
wait(2)
change file field($element offset($element offset(<name="media[]">, 0), 0), $random list item($get files("C:\\Users\\Kevin\\ETC ETC", "Yes")))
run javascript("document.getElementById(\"settings_save\").click();")
wait(2)
wait for browser event("Everything Loaded", "")
wait for element(<id="avatar_preview">, "", "Appear")
navigate("https://twitter.com/settings/design", "Wait")
wait for element(<src="/images/themes/theme9/swatch.gif">, "", "Appear")
wait(1)
click(<src="/images/themes/theme{$rand(2, 19)}/swatch.gif">, "Left Click", "No")
wait(1)
run javascript("document.getElementById(\\\"settings_save\\")

A massive thank you for all your efforts with this. I truly appreciate the time you put into this and to help us through with getting this going.

Let's hope earthlingl gets it going now too!

Respect, sir.

P0s3id0n · November 29, 2012

I see that you used

<name="media[]">

For me I had to use

<type="file">

So whoever come behind if one doesn't work try the other.

Glad that my posts were helpful.

Dude, props to you. I haven't tested this code yet, but if Kev (who had the same issue as me) got it working now I'm sure it will work for me. The reason he used <name="media[]"> is because the element to upload a header image is also <type="file">, so when I was using that it would bring up the upload header window when I wanted the profile image. Anywho, thanks again, man.

Yeah know actually there are 3 type="file" on that page on is hidden that is the reason why you must use the element offset to let Ubot know exactly the one you wanna use.

Twitter Dominator · December 7, 2012

did twitter just disable the image upload that was working now or is it ubot update that is stopping it any1?

Looks like this has been fixed. No wonder my pictures weren't uploading.

Kev · February 9, 2013

Hi Kazzo,

Im trying out your code now and for some reason I can't get the image to save... I can choose one no problem, press save no problem, but it doesnt progress from there. When I press Save it greys out, too.

KingKong · February 13, 2013

Hey Guys,

Any luck with profile picture upload?

I have followed all the codes in this thread but none works.
