Filling Forum Forms ?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Culd someone please help with filling forum forms !

 

The problem am having is that some forum register forms only have

 

username

password

password_confirm

email

accept terms

 

This is most of them, but then there are others that also need

 

First name

second name

 

etc

 

and so on.

 

But the problem am having is that when trying to chose by atribute with these, the actual name or other atribute is not the same as for other forum regester forms !

 

ie .. on 1 form First name atribute might be "m_field_id_1"

 

but then on another form that attribue is maybe address or something !

 

Is there anyway around this please ?

When you are developing a bot for processing a particular forum you need to stick to the same kind of form software.

 

For instance if you are designing to process IP Board version 3.0.4 then when you search for forums to process you need to search for that version. You can do that by adding a footprint criteria when you are searching. like this

 

atlanta dog training "Powered By IP Board 3.0.4"

 

Googling the above search term I found a few Forums that fit the bill.

 

I would stick to the most current versions of the most popular Forum software because over time site owners will upgrade.

 

Good luck.

Ye,the forums am trying to do it with are all "powered by expressionengine"

 

Most of the forums only insist on the usual stuff like

 

username,password,password confirm,email and accept terms.

 

But then there are a few others that require, first name,last name, zip code etc

 

Now i thought it would be easy to just add IF commands, but i tried on the first one, and the FIRST NAME attribute was "m_field_id_1" on the input field, and "m_field_id_2" on the LAST NAME and so on.

 

So i added the IF commands to fill these, but then on the next form that had more stuff to fill in, these 2 input fields were nothing like last name, but were been used for ZIP CODE or something else.

 

I have been looking for something thats universal but cant find anything !

How about a cheap Indian IM worker? :P

 

I've been down the road with my own bots. You start piling up the exceptions and you end up driving yourself bonkers. What's annoying is when I use Roboform, it seems to be able to handle many different input fields for the same data.
