you should use explicit waits when doing browser automation (e.g. "wait for the url to change to X") instead of implicit waits ("wait 4 seconds and hope the server isn't extra slow")

one for login

one for getting a list of posts on a page

one for blanking a post

will make it more readable & maintainable

With your permission, I fixed the indentation to make it easier for poasters to use.

If you don't want me to poast it on github, I'll take it down.

would literally take 5 minutes of googling to figure it out

i'll figure it out. i should learn to do this anyway.

useful though

Also like the fact that you use 'and', 'not', 'or' is just weird to me

I'm a C++mo

I agree that "and" and "not" are stupid.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4499032&forum_id=2#39944073)

Aren't 'and' and 'not' just the equivalents of '&&' and '!'?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4499032&forum_id=2#39944100)

Also debugging via printing isn't a good habit

(1) xo recorded all outgoing links (don't think it does that now)

(2) all searches are recorded

slowly if you wouldnt mind

i downloaded python

1. copy and paste the code into a word editor and save it as a file with .py extension, e.g. blank_my_poasts.py

2. replace "your_username_here" and "your_password_here" with your info.

3. use the cmd program to navigate to the folder where the script is located, and run the script by typing " python blank_my_poasts.py" (no quotes).

Also, the last part of the code should be indented by a tab.

for post in posts:

if 'post.php?message_id' in str(post.get_attribute('href')):

edit_link = post.get_attribute('href')

my_poasts.append(edit_link)

for p in my_poasts:

try:

print(p)

browser.get(p)

textarea = browser.find_element_by_tag_name('textarea')

textarea.clear()

btn_ok = browser.find_element_by_name('btnOk')

btn_ok.click()

time.sleep(4)
