How to retweet from a text file

Post by R4ziel »

I have 10 accounts and I want each account to retweet every 30 minutes, through a text file and that each retweet is different for each account. Can a different text file be used for each account? :?

Not entirely I understand what you are trying to do.

You want to be able to update this text file with new IDs to retweet as you require?

Do you want to specify which account retweets what retweet? OR does it not matter?


Can a different text file be used for each account? :?
If you want one file per account, then you can just create one action per account.
Use the search dropdown FROM FILE.

When the action runs, the file is read and the account will retweet the contents of the file.

If the latest version, you should be able to tokenise the specification of the file

c:\folder\#my-username#.txt

Then account_1 with username R4ziel will load file:
c:\folder\R4ziel.txt

Thanks for the reply, now I know that I can use different text files for each account. Now I want to know how to configure the program to do a retweet every 30 minutes.

Use MIN:MAX PAUSE to be 30 minutes
Or post 1 retweet then repeat action every 30 minutes

I want to retweet every line of text, every 30 minutes, how do i do it?

so if there are 10 lines in the file
you want to
read file (10 lines)
retweet 10 posts
THEN wait 30 minutes and do it again.


If so, set pause to x,y (as you which, to pause after each retweet)
Then REPEAT EVERY MINUTES = 30.

so program reads file
retweets all with xy pause after each
repeat in 30 minutes

What I want to do is, for example:

Retweet Line 1 -> wait 30 minutes ->Retweet Line 2 -> wait 30 minutes -> Retweet Line 3...

And I also want to know if I should check the option "Unretweet> Retweet if retweeted" if I want to retweet the same tweet again.

Then you'd do it as I posted above
Use MIN:MAX PAUSE to be 30 minutes

If you want to retweet the same tweet, you need to make sure UNIQUE option is off and unretweet before retweet is selected. To do this you must use RANDOM PAUSE: MIN MAX: 30 minutes, otherwise each time the program runs, it will just retweet the first tweet only. So this way, it reads your file,
tweets line1
waits 30 minutes
tweets line2

etc

Thanks, it works correctly, now I have a question, can this action be done and at the same time create a "follow" task with the same account?
I have tried and I see one action must be canceled in order to start the other.
Is there any way to do it at the same time?
