[@HenkRenting]

I agree with @roddelkopf. Would be great if you showed us the steps we have to take to get Visual Selector to work as well… and thanks for this great video!

[@mounirah8474]

Heyy there whats up,, i wanna ask u about notification body : so i want to receive only the green highlight ( new change ) ,,, because when i make {{diff}} i receive in my discord channel all of them ( red and green highlight ) ( old, new)

[@HandsOfBlue]

backup early, backup often. I had this installed, and an update from watchtower removed everything I had setup

[@DBTechYT]

Yeah. Automatic updates should never be taken lightly. I've got them set up on my non-mission-critial stuff, but not for anything that I need to guarantee access to. And I always run backups before running an update

[@roddelkopf]

It would be very nice if you also would show how to install the Visual Selector tool :)

[@learnallican3627]

I used ChatGPT and it helped me installed it

[@HenkRenting]

@@learnallican3627Can you help us out then? Would love to be able to use Visual Selector too…

[@diegofelipe2119]

@@HenkRentingJust use the official docker compose image, then uncomment some lines in the yml

[@learnallican3627]

Thank you so much

[@cgilani]

Thank you for the great video! After installing docker desktop, I'm not sure how to go about actually installing change detection/linuxserver. The app you are using does not look like my version of docker, are you using a different application? I apologize if I'm missing something. Any additional help would be greatly apprecaited. Thank you!

[@DBTechYT]

The difference is that you are using Docker desktop and I'm not. If I'm honest, I tried Docker Desktop and hated it so I never looked back at it. Lots of people use it, so I'm sure it's (at least partly) a *me* issue, but I'm just happier putting Docker on a Linux machine and deploying my apps there.

[@hansatanPOL]

Works great beside sites which use... CloudFlare ;) Chrome headless/selenium doesn't work with them quite easily, any tips?

[@DBTechYT]

I've used it successfully on dbt3ch.com and it runs on CloudFlare

[@hansatanPOL]

@@DBTechYT hmm I checked your website and you don't seem to run cloudflare ddos protection which detects headless browser

[@DBTechYT]

DDOS protection is enabled, but is rate limited

[@cli]

I think it has to do with whether the website has bot fight mode ticked on in the dashboard

[@JD-xb9eo]

Hey please help me. My chromebook just lost all my file in my other account I did some research and it says it's because of low storage but threre's a lot of important file there how can I get it back?

[@JD-xb9eo]

Please answer ASAP

[@DBTechYT]

If your Chromebook is attached to a Google account, then you should be able to go to any other computer and login with that Google Account and then go to Google drive and it should all be there

[@GiorgoLazaridis]

Is it possible to monitor the page where I am logged in?

[@DBTechYT]

I don't believe so, but you'd have to reach out to the developer on Github to make 100% sure

[@leoblack8497]

Yes it is , you need to use browser steps for that

[@JohnAbuklau]

distill or changedetection?

[@IslamicAudiobooksCentral]

Distill is not open source, is it? Doesn't mention on website.

[@caseyj789456]

Great vdo! I find your vdo by exact words googled PS : Know how to use Stack by script/edit also now. Thx! Update = "For now, Differences are performed on text, not graphically, only the latest screenshot is available. Screenshot requires Playwright/WebDriver enabled". Could you please explain this ?

[@user-lu6re9yj6l]

Thanks for the great video, It helped me to learn docker, portainer etc.., I am using changedetection as a basic plaintext/html client, but trying to use fetching with webdriver/chrome and I got an error "Content fetcher 'html_webdriver' did not respond. Be sure that the selenium/webdriver runner is running and accessible via network from this container/host. Did you follow the instructions in the wiki? WebDriver Host: localhost:4444 Go here for more information Content fetcher did not respond properly, unable to use it. HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=4444): Max retries exceeded with url: /session (Caused by ConnectTimeoutError(, 'Connection to localhost timed out. (connect timeout=None)'))" I am using selenium/standalone-chrome:4.9.1-20230508selenium/standalone-chrome:latest in docker. It's active and running.using docker on Linux Mint.not a geek just trying to learn as it is a useful tool. official documentation is very poor. any help will be much appreciated and if you can write a detailed blog on this it will help a lot of guys who want to learn and setup this.

[@freeuser616]
