Anybody else having trouble with the Follow action?

[dannyjones233]

I'm a newbie to TwitterDub and have watched the first few tutorial videos, but when I'm trying to do the basic task of entering a user to follow, the bot seems to just follow a random twitter account(s) instead of the one I specified. I have tried using both username, and the specific twitter URL as the search term, still no joy. Anybody else experiencing this or am I just making a rookie mistake somewhere? Any help would be much appreciated!

Here are the steps I do:

- Add username to the Search Term
- Select User Search
- Select an account for the bot to use
- Select Follow

Am I missing something or doing something wrong?

Thanks

- Select User Search

This is a USERNAME SEARCH

so if you enter a term of:
techno

you will be returned results such as:

@technomusic
@technomix
@technomag
@allnighttechno

etc etc

If you want to follow a specific user, use MASS FOLLOW, and enter the profile to follow

Or you can do it with a search, but in CUSTOM SEARCH, you must select the step

* ID URL USER
