[question] Getting text from file in branch constructor

[abccba]

Hi there, signed up quickly to ask this question, please move to relevant section if you get the chance. The email I registered with is my verified payed zenno email.


I am trying to create a bot that posts to various 2.0 blogging sites. Some of these sites have a slightly different 'wysiwyg' editor and I can't seem to be able to click and do 'set value from file'
(I have seperate .txt files for each site as all content is handwritten).

Screenshot of this :

I guessed it's some kind of editor that zenno can't communicate with in the normal way (sorry if this sounds noobish, I have never coded/programmed). I tried using the branch builder to find the input field and then use the 'set' command. I am able to input text like this but not pull from a file/spintax from a file like I want to Anyone have any ideas?

Forgot to mention : I tried using {-File.GetString-| and stuff in the branch constructor, it just literally posts that

Did you tried SET attribute=value value=your text? In branch builder.

Or try to post it naturally and then look at this recorded step and replace value with macro.

Ps I'm still learning too ))

Im also interested cause i passed one form 2 days ago. It looked like yours )

The record page template enter any text in the Pro branch constructor.
Then transfer the template in the editor project, find necessary branch and replace text in it to macro of taking data from a file.

Ah, I think something was not clear from my original description. I am unable to click the text editor. So in 'action recording on the web' mode I click but I can't type, the only way to fill text for me is to use the branch editor.

I seem to have found the right box in the element tree. From there I can do "set value from file". A popup then appears with "specified value is entered but will be used on execution". There is no change, there is no text. Even if I select the input field in the element tree, I still can't manually typ into it. This is driving me crazy

Lots of thanks btw step85 and rostonix!

A popup then appears with "specified value is entered but will be used on execution".

And upon execution there is still no text input thus trying to submit the article with no text.

finally got it working by using the branch builder and then replacing the value in the editor like was said by both of you. Sorry I misunderstood you to, thanks alot for the help!
