| When does the program check email? | Every 2 ads and after all ads are posted in campaign, the program automatically verifies emails.
(or you can make it to do manually by pressing "check email") You can change this value in autoposter.exe.config (find "checkemail" there). Open it in notepad: it's in the program's folder (usually C:\claposter) | mail |
| When is schedule usefull? | It helps you to post your campaigns every specified interval. When the program receives email that the ad was deleted (blocked), it makes its status "unposted". So if you use schedule it'll be posted again. | schedule |
| Also, for example in settings you enter the name of your campaign and put 7 in days if you want it every day and for hours and minutes you
have the 24 clock? | no, just 1 in days and it'll post until you press stop button | schedule |
| What is "delete instead of post"? | If you check "delete instead of post" checkbox, selected campaign will be deleted from cl (this campaign must be already posted) | general |
| Do you think you could you make it easier to select which cities to post to? Perhaps you could add a feature to Duplicate a campaign to avoid selecting cities each time? | To create the ad2 with the same cities ad1: select ad1 and press "+".
You can duplicate campaign with ms access: open db.mdb file (it's in the program's folder (ex. C:\claposter )) -> posts table and duplicate rows. | troubles |
| If I put multiple ads in one campaign title, do the ads just rotate sequentially? | Yes, they do. First it rotates category, then ads, then cities. | general |
| .if I want to have different titles and/or ad body under the same campaign name how can I do this? I mean, I want to have a certain campaign rotate between different ads and titles with out having to manual change it each time. I tried reading the help section but it was confusing. | You can set the same campaign name for some ads with different titles and post it; or/and you can use !rotate{..} or !title{..} (see help) within the ad. | general |
| what do you have in the autoposter to give me reports of what campaigns are currently running, which ads were flagged, which were deleted , | Report tab which is saved in report.txt file (it's text file, you can open it with notepad). | general |
| is there any way for your application to use and rotate accounts? And proxies? | You can use !login{username1|passw1} keyword (input it anywhere in your ad's body) to specify what account to use for selected ad.
Add something like the following into the ad's body to rotate accounts
!rotate{!login{username1|passw1}| !login{test@gmail.com|passw1|+19173331122|pop.gmail.com|test@gmail.com|passw2}| !login{username3|passw3}|…} You should put this code in the body or the html body.
You can use
!rotate{
!login{username1|passw1}|!login{username1|passw1}|!login{username1|passw1}|
!login{username2|passw2}|!login{username2|passw2}|!login{username2|passw2}
}
To rotate accounts every 3 posts
Here is example how to rotate accounts synchronously with Geo proxies
!rotate{ !login{username1|passw1}!proxy{23.123.32.11:8080}| !login{username2|passw2}!proxy{23.123.32.12:8080:proxyusername:proxypassword}}
You can set separate account and proxy server for each city this way.
You can also input !proxy{1.1.1.1:11} keyword(s) in the Options (or phone) column under Accounts tab to use account only for specified city/campaign/proxy
Use !skip_proxy{} keyword in your ad's body to skip proxy if it fails. | general |
| How can I backup the campaigns ? | You should backup db.mdb file. It's in the program's folder (ex. C:\claposter ).
The program also automatically creates backup for your ads and saves it in the db_backup.mdb file when your database size increases. To restore your ads from it you should rename db_backup.mdb to db.mdb
If you can't restore your ads from backup then you can look for your ads in your cl accounts and copy paste from there
or grab your live ads from craigslist.org. Input your ad url in the title text box under ads tab and click save for this
All ads are saved in DB (db.mdb) file: it's in the program's folder (usually C:\CLAPoster). You can backup it also manually | general |
