One thing I've noticed with automator is that once it's finished posting trackbacks you're stuck with the alert box and it wont start the next job till you close the box.

not really a big deal just a minor thing

Well surely the idea behind automator is for scrapebox to run unattended. So it is kind of a problem.

This is fixed in the next version, also a number of new features like export and add to existing list in check links, ability to use multiple keywords in the keyword scraper, save server errors in check links, scrape keywords by referencing a file containing keywords etc.

Also a ?Merge a job? button so you can load and merge multiple jobs and save it off as one big job. So if you had a 15 step job and you wanted to repeat it another 5 times but just using a different keyword each time or promoting a different URL, rather than adding 75 steps (15x5) one by one and setting options in 75 steps you could merge the job 5 times and tweak just the keyword or URL in those steps.

Also requested is email notification upon completion of Trackbacks is added, also the Unicode converter addon is fixed updated.

But Im not sure what your issue is. Are you trying to say your scrapebox physically crashes and closes down when you harvest more then 1 million urls? Because there is no limit.

​

​

That is basically it, it crashes when the harvest stops when i get to those numbers (thought it was the norm), and i have to go look for the batch files like you correctly state. I'll just contact support with some screenshots next time it happens.

Either way i dunno if my sugestion came out clear, if the program automatically (there really is no need to have it as a check options) removed duplicate URLs (that are just trash really) immediatly after finishing the harvest (before populating the grid, and writing the multiple files) it would save up some resources, eventually put more "important" lines on the limited grid in the interface and avoid the mandatory step to remove duplicate url by hand after each harvest.

All sounds great! Thanks for the quick update

Could you also add export to CSV for the link checker if possible.

Sure, I get what your saying. It makes sense that that would be convenient, yes. However even the remove duplicate domains writes the urls to the grid, THEN removes duplicate domains. Its just auto calling the remove dupe domains, its not actually removing the dupe domains prior to writing them to the grid. So my guess would be that if they would have to do some serious reworking of the harvester to get it to remove dupe urls in real time, prior to adding them to the grid.

However, what I do as a work around with the automator is this. I figure up about "loosely" how many urls it would take to hit 1 million. For instance, I loaded in a chunk of 5000 keywords. In "theory" you can get up to 1000 results for each keyword. So 1000 x 5000 = 5 million. Now as a general rule, I don't often see 1000 results for all keywords, especially not for 5000 keywords/footprints. So as a rule dealing with 5000 keywords will net you less then the 1 million urls, then you have less then 1 million and then you can save or post and save successful or whtaever you are doing.

Then I just merge in the same job, so you get all teh same results, but then I go change the file that the keywords section is linked to. Then just let the automator run and your working with chunks of keywords that are less then the 1 million grid and its all good.

In fact I stage it in a fixed way. Meaning:

I make a folder for my keywords and if I do 5 sets of jobs, like sweetfunny mentioned above, then I would need 5 keyword files.

1
2
3
4
5

So I just make those 5 files and name them something like above 1-5 or whatever.

Then when Im done with a run. I just replace those 5 files with 5 new keyword files and name those file the EXACT same thing, like 1-5

Then just run the job again. no need to even change anything in the job, because it runs off of a mapped file and you just replaced those files. I talk about it in the automator vid.

Of course if you are like posting and exporting successful, you will want to grab those successful files and save them off elsewhere, cause they will be overwritten with running the new job.

but I have a nice folder tree of files for the jobs I run and I just copy out successful and found files and dump them in a different folder after each run and then replace keyword files and keep moving, makes easy work of it.

mat - i gotta say this even if no1 else does . you may not have the highest post count but
when you post - you really post , this is an example of an executive vip
just my opinion because you knowledge of scrapebox and the constant help you provide is
2nd to none .

I would like to know if its possible to merge two licenses. I bought one from my friend when I started in IM. But its in his email. I would like to buy a license for myself and merge it as well. This issue didn't arise previously, but I would like to use the Premium plugins for which this method is most effective for me.

As proxygo said, you will need to contact support directly about that. Just choose licensing from the drop down on the form.

Try downloading a fresh copy. Some weeks ago scrapebox changed to new authentication servers and I know that some versions of scrapebox are too old and not compatible.

Hy.

My AOL harvester does not work, the problem is on my side or SB?

Is any one that have the same problem?

Thank you

 

[macblogger]

Mine doesn't work too since I am owner of the scrapebox...I don't know where the problem is.

It works for me in the single threaded harvester. Go to settings >> use multi threaded harvester - uncheck this. Then try and harvest, what error are you getting?

I do what you said and it's ok now. In multi thread harvester I didn't get any error, it just show "Completed" from the beginning and it show 0 result

Thank you again.

Your welcome. AOL is a little finicky, they change their results pages alot and the single threaded harvester works slightly differently with them the multi threaded harvester.
