Hiya. I just downloaded AutoWikiBrowser. Its working perfectly but I just want to know if anyone knows how to make it open a Wikia Wiki instead of Wikipedia? Thanks! --Zombie talk • blog 18:20, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
Go to options, preferences, site, click wikia and it will give a box to type in your wiki name.--GodPray 18:24,5/12/2011
- For some reason I could never understand, that's never worked for me, however - as a workaround, you can press the "custom" button, and type in the URL of the wiki, that's worked perfectly every time for me RandomTime 18:25, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
- Worked, though just another question: Do I have to log in as BobNewbie, or can I create a new account for the bot in the case that I want it to be flagged? Sorry if I'm misunderstanding. Zombie talk • blog 18:34, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
- It's recommended that you create a new account, and ask for that one to be flagged. That way you can still edit unbotted when you need to, and run your bot for automated tasks RandomTime 18:36, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
