Daily stats

../images/daily_stats.png

A module that allows you to track what you account has been doing. Simply select your account and how often you want to scrape your stats (24 hours is probably the value you want - don't over do it). The most recent stats will be viewable in the accounts control, but clicking the View Stats button you will see all stats ever scraped for the account allowing you to track the followers / followings of your account along with posts made, actions performed in the previous 24 hours before the stats were scraped and much more. For those of you who want to do more stats analysis the stats can all be exported to CSV (or a date defined section of) for importing into any spreadsheet tool of your choice (excel, calc etc)

Mass Actions

../images/massaction.png

Mass actions tend to cause some confusion, how are they different to normal actions? The mass actions are intended to bulk perform a single item using multiple accounts. For example, you may want to use 100 of your accounts to like a specific post, making the post appear more popular. You want to use 100 accounts to follow a profile, because that person has paid you to give them 100 followers.

Each item you process will have it's own action. So, if you specify a text file of 10 profile URLs to Mass Follow, you will end up with 10 actions, one action for each profile to mass follow.

Scraper / Search Tab

The scrape tab allows you to perform any scrape / search and save the result to a file. The results will be saved to your Saved Data directory, found by the menu item HELP > SAVED

You can perform the default searches used on the action tabs and build a custom search. All searches can have a filter applied and the number of results wanted specified.

Email / Profile Details Scraper

Mass Reblog

../images/mass_reblog.png

To perform a mass comment action, enter the post URL to reblog, select your accounts and optionally set your meta then click Mass Reblog.

Assign Meta

When you perform a reblog on tumblr you can set various meta data regarding your reblog, you can specify this data by clicking the Assign meta button.

../images/meta_reblog_form.png

The Assign Meta form allows you to specify randomised Tags and Description for your post. The control is a TumJazz standard keyword token form you will use throughout the program and will allow spintax and tokens to be used for all values.

The inputs on the left are your meta values and the list input on the right is for your keywords. The meta inputs all can take the %kw% token. This token will be replaced by a random keyword that you specify in the keywords box on the right (one keyword per line). Additionally, for more control of what keywords to use, you can also use tokens %kw1% %kw2% and those specific keywords will be replaced

Instances

The program can run multiple unique instances on a single machine. Each instance of the running program will use a separate database and be completely separate from other instances. The instances do not know of each other, cannot effect each other and cannot communicate with each other. Basically think of an instance as running on a separate machine.

To open multiple instances, use the menu:

FILE > NEW CUSTOM INSTANCE

For some info on custom db instances, check the thread https://rootjazz.com/forum /viewtopic.php?f=12&t=874

An instance can be opened by passing a single argument (the instance name) to the .exe. So if you want to open the instances up via an icon, create a shortcut of the .exe file from your c:program files folder. Then change the target to

Posting Via RSS feeds

TumJazz can use RSS feeds to find content (images, videos, audio, text, links) and post them to automatically to Tumblr. All RSS posting modules work in a similar way. Specify your RSS feed, specify how to extract the data from the feed and set content specific parameters.

Posting content from RSS is similar to posting the same content from a folder / file on your local with regards to the basic settings. Meaning the upload images options are the same as post image from RSS feed. The only difference is:

  • Assign RSS meta

Specify RSS Meta

In order to post images from an RSS feed, you must instruct TumJazz how to find the image and caption. This is quite an advanced feature. You will need to know: XML / RSS formatting, Xpath and HTML.

Create Accounts

../images/create_accounts.png

TumJazz can attempt to create tumblr accounts. The program will use a Chrome browser (or firefox if specified on the Settings tab).

You will need to provide the proxies to use for your signup attempts.

NOTE: Public proxies are not recommended. Tumblr is a very heavy site sending Mbs down the connection which most public proxies just cannot handle. You can try, but expect many failures before any succeed. Even then, the google recaptcha v2 may refuse to work with known public proxies. This is not a fault of the application but of using low quality / slow proxies
