  • My topic Captchas
  • In the captcha settings we are given the option between manual and death by captcha Does MANUAL mean that I can stand by the computer and when the bot prompts the captcha I can insert it manually? Or else how does it work? And how do I trigger it? With the function captcha or something else? Is this even feasible with the latest picture (street name plates, house numbers) captchas?

  • My topic Botchief Footprint
  • Hi, I have noticed that when I perform the old fashioned way (i.e. by hand) the same exact actions I do with my bot websites go through smoothly. When I perform them with my bot, I cannot accomplish anything not even once. The site kinda gets stuck. And I am using my local IP in both instances, same input data etc. So I am wondering that perhaps sites got a bit smarter at detecting bots. What are you guys doing not to let breadcrumbs behind when botchief is used?

  • My topic Impossible to execute click...
  • I am having a hard time making my bot work. The bot seems not to find the correct way to select specific page elements where I can click on. Moreover, I also have another problem. When I try to go to some URL, it does not go to the specified address.

  • My topic Repeat subset of steps N t...
  • Hi, I would like to know if it's possible to have a bot repeat a subset of steps n times, then run from the beginning (loop through the subset). In short, I need to login with one user, accomplish some tasks a number of times, then change username, repeat the tasks N times, and so on. I am trying with the IF statement, but it gets quite convoluted and messy, plus not feasible for a large number of users. Thanks

  • My topic Select correct Radio Button
  • Hi, when selecting html in a control operate action I need to select between male or female radio button, the html is clear, so I am using a variable, but when running it always ignores the variable and uses the gender I clicked on to select the html then modify with variables, without looking for the one with the gender specified by the variable. Hope it's clear.

  • My topic How to simulate ENTER in ajax
  • Hi, I noticed botchief struggles a bit with ajax, or I am unable to find the right onpage elements to make it work. I have this search form with no submission button, it's an ajax event <form action="#" method="post" onsubmit="return false;"><input type="text" data="input"></form>. To activate the search the only way is to hit ENTER, but when I simulate it with the bot it doesn't work. So I guess I am either focusing on the wrong element or the ENTER simulator cannot handle ajax. If you have a way, much appreciated.
