Weird log entry...?

Post by bitcoin »

I made a RT account Action that looks at the last 7 original tweets.

From the log:
Starting: 21/01/2018 20:00 PM

Custom Search: RecentTweetsOf

My question is about the red text above... Why does this appear? I understand all is working well, I'm mostly curious here...

Glad that it is working well. :)
Perhaps any logging issue that is not showing up. Thanks for being curious and it may solve another bug / issue. Log has been reported.

Your custom search did not specify a NUM_ITEMS_WANTED value (double clicking the step).

For a normal search, 0 would mean get me all results (until the max search results (settings tab) value was hit. But with chained searches 0 is not allowed, so the program has to "guess" what number of items to request.

The issue becomes, if you have a 2 step search and want 100 results, do you want
step1: 100 results
step2: 1 result from each
= 100

or
step1: 1 result
step2: 100 results from that one
= 100

both would hit your limit, but would give very different result sets, to the program tries to make it clear to you in the hope you actually specify the num_results wanted from each individual step

I don't really understand you here but it feels like I'm a Category 1 person.

How do I make certain the correct max amount is used? Where do I set that max.? :)

I am not clear about the logic he said ( read 2 -3 times ) but i am sure the max is outside custom search. Generally the Max action / Max item on the right side. Left to fluct value. You better don't specify the 7 which we can see in the image and leave it to 0.
Set the max value outside of custom search. That should work.
