[GET] My PHP Article Scraper & Spinner

Sorry, I should have realised to enable curl. That was stupid!
Everything works great now, this is better than TBS.

Only suggestion I have is that all the words in the title of a spun article should start with Capitals. Other than that, this works brilliantly!
 
It's funny the way said it, "I'm new to php", while some of us can tell you're a badass coder.

I like a new version which includes Michael Schrenk libraries but all in all I really want to thank you for taking your time writing this script, I know how time consuming it can be...
Thanks for the compliment. I found the library of Michael Schrenk is better in some task but the new one still use the HTML DOM library. It's really fun when code this stuff anyway :D

I think the title is capitalized the initial characters of words already. Could you check it again?
 
The captialization only works sometimes, i think if the spun replacement contains more than 1 word, the second word isn't capitalised.

I see, I will check if there is a fix for this.

Find your www folder. Probably located in C:\wamp\www\

make a folder called spun in there

extract the contents of the zip archive into that folder.

Start your server, and go to http://localhost/spun/

You need to install also :D. After installing, do as jerome said
 
Thanks for your help.
I did manage to install it and have tried it out but I just get this error message.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in \spun\ocas\class\botlib\LIB_http.php on line 249

you need to enable curl first. Google "how to enable curl in wamp" or see few posts above, you will see the answer
 
howdy, this is great but I seem to have a wamp issue..I get
1) a warning-file_get_contents*****failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!

2)a fatal error-Call to a member function find() on a non-object in C****


I had to set wamp to work on port 8080 since localhost:80 was busy

any insight? thanks

Something is blocking the script from accessing the article sites. It maybe your firewall or another problem. I would recommend reinstalling WAMP on port 80.

OK yeah I'm gona try that.. I relly want this dandy lil thing to work... thanks
 
looks like a great script you made here. I'll download it and tested it and posted in here again if it work for me.

Thank you!
 
I tried everything I could think off.. I disabled IIS, turn off everything that might have been using a server, disabled Avast for wamp re-install, reinstalled WAMP, got green buttons across the board,
got curl turned on
but I get these again:
1) a warning-file_get_contents*****failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!

2)a fatal error-Call to a member function find() on a non-object in C****

when I hit the fetch button on the scraper.
wamp IS enabled through the firewall.. hmm lemme see..I can drop my entire website folder(flash) in the www of wamp and run it fine.

Im baffled..
 
What programs do you guys use this with?
I got it to work on my localhost and it's giving me regular spinnable content with the {} brackets and all.
What programs do you guys use to unravel that into regular human-readable content?
 
Friend u just saved a lot of my time :) The first thing i wanted to do today after coming back from office is to code a similar script . I was lucky to check BHW before starting to code. Thanks a tonn :)

I am still getting an error message Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:wamp\www\spun\ocas\class\botlib\LIB_http.php on line 249
I removed the ; before the extension

  1. Find "php_curl.dll"
  2. Remove the semicolon before it. Save the file and restart WAMP.
still I cannot get it to work. aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
