Okay, I'm not proficient at coding. I've been sitting here all day trying to figure out how to get around the numbers following the "ID" tag for websta.

If anyone could school me to a way around the numbers to where iMacros would click the "like" button on Websta.me, it would be very much appreciated.

"TAG POS=1 TYPE=I ATTR=ID:1688607135482281894_1459361488
WAIT SECONDS=8..."

you might want to post this in the "want to hire" section as it doesn't have anything to do with instagram marketing directly

I'm actually doing it for instagram likes. Does that count towards instagram marketing.

Or am I being vague?

I figured people here would be familiar with websta.
 
yes, i understood that, however you basically need someone with dev skills not with marketing skills :) people here are mostly about how to market, not how to code.

I may be wrong, but it doesn't look like he's trying to hire someone. I think he just wants general help from someone that's familiar with iMacros.

@photolife, you may be able to find some help, here.
 
In iMacros, please the parts of the ID that changes with *

So instead of
TAG POS=1 TYPE=I ATTR=ID:1688607135482281894_1459361488
use
TAG POS=1 TYPE=I ATTR=ID:1688*

If the first few digits remain constant. Or use the IMAGECLICK command (or Kantu Web Automation) for image based automation to avoid IDs altogether.
 
Hey OP. I'm good with WP but haven't used it for IG before.

What exactly are you trying to do, and do you have a sample of the code.

Okay, thanks for the reply @songlix. See, I knew I posted my question in the right spot.

I have a couple questions: would I need to place the "IMAGECLICK" command after the "ATTR=" and get rid of the "ID:", or after the "ID:", and if so, what do I use to close the command?

2n question: If *1688* after the "ID:" is the case... would I get away with "TAG POS=1 TYPE=I ATTR=ID:16*", or is the minimum 4 digits?

I'll go play around with it to see if I could get it to do what I want.

Thanks, my good person. thumbsup emoji.

"TAG POS=1 TYPE=I ATTR=ID:16*" can be enough too, but i guess you'll see that soon, if it is or not. :)

The IMAGECLICK command is a directscreen command, you don't need attributes for that: http://wiki.imacros.net/IMAGECLICK
It may or may or not work properly, so try to play with the * wildcard version first.
 
My advice to you. Better learn Selenium. Imacros is pretty unstable and cannot automate some websites. Learn Selenium. It is so much stable and the community support outshine Imacros. Plus you get to learn learn real programming and not some scripts

What I need to get done with my automative jutsu, my iMacros ninja tool is good enough.

But, I'll look into Selenium. Thanks!

@HoNeYBiRD
Ah, man! The wildcard version worked!
But I noticed that the ID's are climbing quick!
It's up to 1690 now.
I'm about to try the 16* now.

So the line of code for the IMAGECLICK would be "TAG POS=1 TYPE=I IMAGECLICK:", or "TAG POS=1 TYPE=I IMAGECLICK="?
You have to forgive me. They said I don't need to know coding to use iMacros to market Instagram... I mean, I see what the codes are doing by reading between the lines. like "=" is pointing to something else and ":" is what the something else is.

Nope, that's not how the syntax looks like when using IMAGECLICK. On the link i posted above you can find the form of the syntax and different parameters, there's a demo too: Demo-ImageRecognition. It should be among the demo macros, which come with iMacros normally. But if the wildcard version worked, that's better and easier.
