Watch for new followers flawed

[Jens Haubensack]

Ahoy ahoy,

since one of the last updates, watching for new followers doesn't work anymore.
It starts from scratch every single time, thinking it's the first run.
This process takes hours.

What can I do?

[martin@rootjazz]

Ahoy there mi hearties, I will get one of those scurvy swillin pirates below deck to take a look into this

[martin@rootjazz]

sorry for delay, I am having network issues and unable to test this. Hopefully today

[martin@rootjazz]

Sorry for delay

The next update will include this. I shall let you know when it is ready.



Regards,
Martin

hey martin,

now it returns
"scraped 0 followers
no new followers"

[martin@rootjazz]

can you submit your logs

HELP > LOGS > SUBMIT

then send your logs ID - the first 4 numbers is sufficient (displayed after successful uploading of logs)

[Jens Haubensack]

done! and thanks!
ID is ...77068...

according to the logs, you have no new followers since your last run of the action.

Could this be the cause? Or are you sure there are new followers since?


So you don't have to scrape all your followers each run, the program will stop if it finds a follower that has been processed before. As SC shows the most recent followers, if it finds one already recorded, then it stands to reason all subsequent followers have also been processed before.

thus it stops you over scraping your followers (which SC frowns upon)
