New account signup. Firefox automation
Due to the recent ( 06 / 09 / 1980 ) issues of the captcha no longer showing for the headless browser account signup module, I have had to remove this module and replace it with a firefox automation.
You will probably need to have firefox installed on your machine (which you should anyway as it is clearly a better browser than chrome )
It will only work SINGLE THREADED, this is forced in the app on an action basis, but you could create multiple actions and multi thread them. DON'T. It won't work and will break the actions.
The signup module DOES NOT WORK WITH USERNAME:PASSWORD PROXIES
Sorry about this, but you MUST use IP authenticated private proxies only (or proxies that do not require username passwords or a VPN or whatever)
When the module runs, a firefox window will open, DO NOT INTERACT WITH IT, do not close it, do not enter any values...
My tests are working 100% success rate at the moment, so hopefully you will have good results if you go with the above guidelines.
Let me know how you get on

Hey Martin,
According to the service Proxy Rack they are unlike any other proxy service on the market. Will Proxy Rack proxies work?
They say "our proxies simultaneously support HTTP, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 connections"
Tx much

Re: New account signup. Firefox automation
It errors out when needing to select a suggested username. This was with no proxy and clean install of the newest version of firefox.

As long as you can specify
IP:PORT
they will work
What WILL NOT WORK, is if you specify
IP:PORT:USERNAME:PASSWORD

Thanks for reporting this, I never tested this part as my tests were with usernames that went through. Of course, the one part I didn't check doesn't work *sigh*
I will test, confirm, update today

Re: New account signup. Firefox automation
I have tested this now, but I don't see a problem. If you instruct TJ to signup with a blog name that already exist, it will fail and move onto the next attempt (if there is a next attempt) or drop out.
What exactly happens for you and what were you expecting to happen

I do not see an option to select a suggested username, just a message from tumblr saying "couldn't signin"beer30 wrote:It errors out when needing to select a suggested username. This was with no proxy and clean install of the newest version of firefox.
Re: New account signup. Firefox automation
Using the newest version of firefox 32.0.2 it gave me a choice of suggested usernames when the username entered was taken.
Sorry for the long delay in replying I had moved on to another project for the time being.

I will test again, but I am on the same FF and that didn't happen.
Re: New account signup. Firefox automation
trying to create accounts and process stop at the age section. So I guess this needs updated.
