Search users by hashtag/keyword
Search users by hashtag/keyword
I know its possible to search tweets by hashtag/keyword and then follow their creators. But is it also possible to search hashtag/keyword and follow users which have this hashtag/keyword in bio/username? Twitter allows this kind of search but I cant find out how to setup it at Twitterdub.

Re: Search users by hashtag/keyword
well you cannot have a #hashtag in your username, but if you meant keyword, then yes, do a USERNAME SEARCH. This may also include results that have the keyword in the bio, I don't recall. If you can do it on twitter.com, then twitterdub can do it and it will be USERNAME SEARCH or maybe is termed USER SEARCH something containing USER and SEARCH in some formatjamberry wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2020 6:56 pm I know its possible to search tweets by hashtag/keyword and then follow their creators.

Re: Search users by hashtag/keyword
Oh perfect.. and second thing - how to build up search to scrape tweet interactions also for retweets? I mean something like this:
Input is @therock -> and i want to scrape his tweets and stuff he retweeted from others -> and then interact with people which liked/commented/retweeted these tweets and retweets.
I tried to scrape "User tweets" but that scrapes only @therock's original tweets. And I need retweets too. I tried also scraping "Timeline" but thats giving me pretty strange results.

Have a watch of the CUSTOM SEARCH tutorial:
Twitterdub custom search tutorial
- Explains how to build a search and specify how many results per step (optional)

Sorry for audio quality, I'd lost mic and used laptop mic
CUSTOM SEARCH:
Input is @therock -> and i want to scrape his tweets and stuff he retweeted from others -> and then interact with people which liked/commented/retweeted these tweets and retweets.
input: @therock
SEARCH_1
Steps:
USER TWEETS
TWEET INTERACTIONS (replies / comments / retweets)
SEARCH_2
Steps:
USER RETWEETS (or maybe is terms RETWEETED BY USER - something along these lines)
TWEET INTERACTIONS (replies / comments / retweets)
As above you need a separate search / action for this as the retweets and user tweets come from different endpoints.I tried to scrape "User tweets" but that scrapes only @therock's original tweets. And I need retweets too.

Well there is option "RetweetedBy" but it requires link to specific tweets as input.. if I set @therock as input then process fails.SEARCH_2

USER RETWEETS (or maybe is terms RETWEETED BY USER - something along these lines)
TWEET INTERACTIONS (replies / comments / retweets)

RetweetedBy isn't it. That will tell you who retweeted a specific tweet, which is not what you want. Let me take a look and tell you exactlyjamberry wrote: ↑Sun Jan 12, 2020 8:19 amWell there is option "RetweetedBy" but it requires link to specific tweets as input.. if I set @therock as input then process fails.SEARCH_2

Re: Search users by hashtag/keyword
My apologies, I was thinking of a different program
There is NO way to get ONLY the retweets made by a user.
You can get USER TWEETS from custom search then apply a filter to include / not include retweets. But you cannot ONLY get retweets made by a specific user

Re: Search users by hashtag/keyword
Im sorry and im probably missing something but can you show me screen where to find FILTER button? All I know about is "User Filter" but there isn't anything related to retweets?
