Sorry for the delay in getting this out - added several new features and some bug fixes/improvements. Made a lot of changes under the hood, so please email me or open a ticket if you experience any new (or remaining) bugs and I'll push some quick fixes while I work on the next update (full v2.2).
I made some important changes to the WordAi calls, but my trial of WordAi ran out (I don't use it personally so don't have a subscription), but I get the feeling there will be more adjustments needed for WordAi to be fully useable. If you're still unable to use WordAi, please shoot me a PM to troubleshoot.
Have plenty of improvement and new features to add for v2.2 and beyond, so I'll be knocking them out as quickly as possible - top priority is fixing any current bugs, finally finishing macOS support, and fixing the auto-updater so no more manual download/install/activation. Once auto-updater is running smoothly I'll push out more minor updates more frequently (as needed) instead of saving for batches to avoid users having to manually redownload and reinstall every few days.
Once v2.2 is finished I'll be working on new documentation - please post here if you have any questions in the meantime and I'll follow up asap.
What's mean about
Skip Duplicates Per Scrape
Skip Duplicates Per Session
Can you explain more? I don't understand it, thanks
The skip duplicates per scrape will ignore questions that the software has already scraped during the current run. The skip per session will track all duplicates and ignore until you close the software.
There was a bug where if you use too many similar keywords the software can get bogged down after too many duplicates, but I added some new logic in to hopefully fix that in the new download. Please let me know if you try it and experience any issues.
Got a few more suggestions/questions for the coming releases, please check and advise, thank you.
1. May I know when would the next version ready/beta-testing?
As the seed keyword column in combined CSV is critical for my case with dozens of keywords in bulk search.
"the next version already has the option to include seed keyword column and source URL column in CSV"
2. [Not Rush] For combined CSV in bulk search, please also add a column for "phrases/sentence in Google answer with bold style". This short and direct answer sometimes is really useful.
3. [Not Rush] For bulk search with SpinRewriter integration, please check if it's possible to pass mulitple(& configurable, says 5, 10, 30 KW) Q&A KW's results as one spinning batch.
My projects only need a few Q&A per KW, which is very short. As now each KW consumes one API request credit and has a loading time.
4. [Not Rush] In bulk search, sometimes there's a random failed scrape (1 out of 10 kw), while rerun the same kw in bulk will return a successful result.
What's the typical reasons for the failed scrape? Is it possible to provide a short reason for the failed KW in bulk search - popup in failed view button?
Thanks again for your great work of software and responsive support.
Thanks for the suggestions! I replied already via PM but wanted to answer in public as well:
1. Your main requested feature is live (the seed keyword column) - please let me know if any issues!
2. The bold results should be easy to implement, so I'll work on adding that in soon.
3. The send XX questions/answers to spin rewriter option should be doable, but may not be possible until after I implement database support (instead of keeping everything in memory/saving results/temp files), so that may take a bit to roll out as the database is part of a bigger strategy (saving/loading different settings for different projects and such).
4. As for the missing keyword results, it could be a number of things - hard to tell without more debugging. I'm working on a logging system that can help pinpoint issues so that should help. This newest version that was just uploaded has offline detection/delays, so if the issue was due to a drop in connectivity this could help resolve the issue (though it still needs a few more connectivity checks to prevent a few more errors).
Hi,

PM Sent - thanks for your interest! And yes, it should work for any language/location
