Starting October 5th until October 10th, we are hosting "Fall Frenzy"... Yes, it's that time of year again, and we're celebrating a break from the heavy heat with Lifetime licenses of webDOM.

This means that for those five days, you can buy a lifetime license of webDOM for the price of just one year!

Now's the time to take advantage of this great deal and get webDOM for life. See you in October!

1. Click on "Licenses & Plugins" in the main file menu.
2. Click on the "webDOM Version Updater" in that drop down menu

Sorry for any inconveniences this may have caused you today, and thanks for using webDOM!

This is due to an issue with all embedded internet explorer objects in windows and we have figured out a fix for it. We are making a last-minute fix to the recent program update patch we had scheduled for release. The testing for this fix is taking place this weekend, so sit tight and we hope to have something ready and tested by monday.

This freezing issue is basically something that's new. We noticed it this morning so we've been working on figuring out a solution all day and have now started to take action on what we feel is the best route. If you'd like to help beta test this fix over the weekend, please shout to @webDOMinator and we will forward you the latest patch update when available.

• Added new ability to set list.handle.current so that things like the updated SoundCloud plugin has a working "Mutualize" script
• In the Stats display - the Stop At number is now shown if set in the list manager and the Estimated time to completion and percentage bar are based off of the Stop point
• It is now possible to load a list from any folder on your computer, and it is also possible to load a .txt or .csv file as a list if it's one item per line
• Ability to run a random action each time automation advances
• Fixes to the CAPTCHA Alternative solver retry system
• Fixes to the Auto-Stop on autogathering for stopping on a certain number of items gathered
• Additional test option and information on the Message Editor that shows characters and number of possibilities for dynamic phrases

In addition to that, we've been working hard to remove any false postives from popular Anti-Virus systems by contacting these AV companies and getting them to whitelist us. So far that's been going well and it's been a great relief that AV companies are much more prone now to admit when their system guesses wrong.

Some of you may have also noticed that for tha last month, you have not been able to post to the Forum on webdombot.com. This is because there was a rising amount of spam that was getting past the spam filter and people had started to post links to illegal pornography on the forum. These were all removed, but as a result, the forum had been shut down simply due to the fact that we are revising the system so that only registered webDOM users can register a forum account. This should minimize the amount of spam that has to be moderated daily... hopefully completely obliterate it so that we can focus on what's important and not policing a Forum. More news on the Forum will come shortly.

All in all, we are starting the march toward webDOM 4 and beta testers will start to see some new features that need testing, in addition to continuing the bug hunt. Anyone who needs help with any plugins or the program update, please :l:contact.php#let_us_know:

Let's take a look at those who won a lifetime subscription this year during "Golden Weeek" (Dec 25th through 31st.)...

This years winners are: @atron @dkwline @goent @Bran11 and @spiritwarrior ... congratulations to all of you for taking advantage of a great opportunity to get webDOM for life. For those of you who missed out this year, we will be doing the same thing next year for Golden Week, so sit tight :).

More webDOM 3 please

Well in development of the system we are about 95% done and should start heavy beta testing of some of the new features within a week or two. The biggest thing we are excited about is the new multi-list system. Mix that with the ability to use any CAPTCHA solving service you want and you're flying high. Along with all these features, there are quite a few great bug fixes that will make webDOM run smoother, faster, and more stable.

We'll keep you updated on progress in the new version and we'll be posting up some sneak peek videos. We also have re-designed the website to give it a new sleek look for a new year and a new version. The design should be featured around the 15th of January. That's all for now.

Happy New Years and Happy DOMinating!
Nathaniel

There have been some delays in getting webDOM 3 complete and tested. Our new ETA for webDOM 3 is February 1st. This may come as a disappointment to some of you but it's necessary to get everything working 100% and tested out so WD3 is a solid release

Consolation prize? Okay, so as a consolation, what I'm doing is opening up an opportunity for anyone who buys a year of webDOM between December 25th and January 1st. Those who buy a year license of webDOM in this time frame will get a Lifetime license of webDOM for the price of a year! Yes, you read correctly, LIFETIME.

More updates on webDOM 3 as progress is made. I wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season.

Over the next couple of updates, we're going to be taking a look into some of the new features of webDOM 3.0 that can now be revealed with a little more clarity.

The lists system updates

The list system is getting a major overhaul at the moment. We are breaking the previous boundaries of the well known webDOM list system.

• There are now multiple lists that a plugin loads with, pre-saved with the plugin settings
• Each list will be able to have it's own gather settings so that multiple types of data can be gathered at a time
• The list system will now be much faster when gathering
• A new blacklist system that allows any list to be set up as blacklist for another list
• A brand new interface to make it easy to work with lists

Tables

Tables have been a long desired feature in webDOM. We've gone table crazy and created a way to finally make 2d datasets that can even be queried! This part of the system is in beta testing at the moment and should be ready by the christmas release.

More to come

Beyond all that fun data gathering stuff, there really are quite a bit of new groundbreaking features that have been being added which will change the way we all use webDOM next year:

• Newer Help system features will allow better troubleshooting for more topics
• Quite a bit of new features are being worked on which will help the user experience become easier and more powerful
• More community features are built into the system to bring peer interaction to a new level
• Two words, webDOM Connect

Overall, we've been cooking up some great gifts and we're glad to announce the price for webDOM will stay the same even with all of these new tools and functionality! Here's hoping you a great holidays.

To be Continued.... Happy DOMinating!

there's space on the forum for SEO talk, SEM talk, and of course, help with using webDOM. Let's get this forum live and rocking :) hit up the link icon to go there or use the Forum link a the top of the updates page. :l:forum/index.php:

Important Changes

PLEASE NOTE: in order to clean up the math/concatenation system in the Minion scripting engine, I had to change the basic form of performing math in minion. Before it was possible to perform the following. [code] var:i=var.i+1 [/code] notice that there's no space between var.i and the "+" sign and the 1. This is now incorrect and will no longer be parsed as math, but as a literal. To perform the actual mathematical equation you need to uses spaces like this: [code] var:i=var.i + 1 [/code] Please update any loops you may be using math in, or any scripts where you use math to add to counters. The same goes for subtraction, division and multiplication.

In other news, we now support 2d datasets, (tables) which can do all kinds of marvelous things like exporting a table you see on a website to CSV, or a series of that table, as well as having other great functions. For more on tables see the scripting reference here :rs:table: . We also have included the SimuMacros system, the first draft of this where windows are now controllable. Other little changes have been made like:

• you can now save and load account sets as other files instead of default.
• you can now use a simple regex pattern to return a match from the current web page to a variable. See :r:3398:
• The nextproxy command :r:nextproxy: and the lastproxy command :r:lastproxy: allow you to change proxies in your list in order.

On the road to webDOM 3.0 there are many other updates that are waiting to happen including a new captcha outsourcing system, controlling other windows and file uploads, an update to the lists system with new functionality and no limitations.

Happy DOMinating, be unstoppable!

What's going to be new?

Well, we can't tell you everything but here's a short list of some of the things to look forward to.

• Interconnected and intercontrollable webDOM processes
• Run and control multiple instances of webDOMinator on many computers
• New bulk license discounts with the purchase of webDOM Enterprise Server
• Built-in community features and updates allowing webDOM users to interact with other webDOMmers
• Many more new features and commands along with some top-secret ideas we're putting into play

So webDOMmers, stay tuned and keep DOMinating. We'll have more about webDOM 3.0 soon. It's scheduled for release in Q4 2010.

We've recently fixed the myspace plugin to work for friend adding again. Myspace changed their add friend format last week to a pop-up window for adding each person. Last week we updated webDOM and the myspace plugin to work with the changes. To use the new updated version of the myspace plugin, you have to have the latest build.

If friend adding is not working for you, please contact us.

Happy DOMinating!

This is facebook stepping out of bounds and trying to hit the little guys (you and me) where it hurts.

They want to force people to use their own advertising system to try to boost their turnout on that. In doing so, they are trying to pass terms of service breaches into the world of "criminal activity". Sadly, they have missed the fact that automation is what built the internet. It's what built facebook itself. There is a full report and record of this at the Electronic Freedom Foundation's website. It is extremely important that facebook does not pass this into law using their political power because it will mean a new movement in the Social Network realm where EVERY site wants to now make TOS violation criminally prosecutable. This is ANTI-CONSTITUTIONAL in the United States of America.

Together we can find was to help the anti-facebook movement and buck them off of their legal/moral high horse. You can help by supporting the EFF so that they win this case and save what little freedoms we have left on the internet. You can also help by telling everyone you know about this travesty of law Facebook is trying to commit.

Happy DOMinating, and power to the independent online marketer!

Thanks to @kidpump for reporting the myspace changes. +50 points for you!

Happy DOMinating!

We've been working hard on finishing the newest features which allow plugin Developers to make custom options pages for webDOM using HTML and the special "wdonclick" attribute. Using the options pages, it's possible to create a customized interface that showcases the features of the plugin, or allows users to select options for specific scripts. If you already know HTML then it's very easy to do.

Besides that, this new version features many fixes, and a final fixed version of wdUpdater.exe and the automatic updates system.

For the update, you must re-install webDOM - this is a simple process, just download and run the installer and all the base webDOM files will be updated.

Stay tuned for new plugin updates, we are working on the Myspace fix as well as putting this new options page system to the test by building some custom option pages for some of the top and most recently added plugins.

Happy DOMinating!

Besides the changes mentioned in the video, you might find that webDOM now runs even smoother. There was also a previous problem where webDOM was not running correctly in Thailand and possibly other southeast asian countries. This issue has been resolved, and now allows anyone from that area of the world to properly register a license to their computer, etc. Thanks a lot to QQ for helping us with that fix :)

The New Interface also includes

• Auto-Scripting! Finally there is a tool that has bridged the gap between advanced webDOM gurus and complete noobs. watch the basic auto-scripting video tutorial
• A working Plugin Export capability when you click on "Upload" in your plugin menu. The export function makes sure all your private data is taken out of the plugin settings when making the zip file that it exports.
• New "virtual" list systems which allow you to create lists in minion code and do not have a 32k list limit. See the Scripting Reference: List Command. Be sure to head to the Scripting Reference: Recent Commands page to see the newest additions to Minion scripting.

All in all, quite a great update, and we hope to hear from you all on what you think about the new interface.

Happy DOMinating!
The webDOMbot.com Team

• A new way to deal with working on multiple lists at the same time, and gathering different data to different lists simultaneously
• A new script editor. Say goodbye to the quick action script section and say hello to one really nice tab based script editor built into webDOM. This is the beginning of better IDE support.
• And ofcourse, other secret plans and new features we're not going to share here until we're ready to share it with you :)

Besides that, we have still been working on the webDOM community, bug fixes, talking to wonderful clients like yourself, and making new site plugins and plugin updates.

Stay tuned and keep DOMinating :) We've got some goodies in store for you.

On the software side of things, we've added a couple new commands to the newest upcoming release that will allow you to work with lists in a whole new way. More on that as events unfold.

Happy DOMinating!

The overall idea with the webDOM game is that you can gain points for contributing to the community, and exchange them for prizes. You also have a reputation within the community that allows you access to certain privileges like point increases, being featured on the home page, etc.

Your profiles are now open for editing, and when you create them, upload a photo, and set up your static profile address if you want. The community will be continuing growth as the year progresses so stay tuned. You can already subscribe to other people's submissions and vote on other users to up their reputation.

The community is going to be peer governed, so everyone works together to keep the community clean and churning out good scripts. As the community grows, there will be new ways for you to gain points and new prizes that you can win with your webDOM points. There will eventually be contests, awards, challenges, etc. that you will be able to complete that will help you out quite a bit in evening out the learning curve webDOM has a bit.

Edit your webDOM community profile

Happy DOMinating!

There is also now the BlackPlanet Plugin which can be downloaded using the Plugin manager

In other news, a new program update adds the "googlesearch" command, and an important scheduling fix. Besides that, some changes to the "softwait" command have also been made which fix when you are using it multiple times in a script. You should already have gotten this update automatically if you have automatic updates on.

• Myspace
• Facebook
• Plurlife
• Pornhub
• Downelink
• Purevolume
• Youtube

If you have automatic updates turned off, it's probably a good idea to update these plugins as many of them which require captcha support now have it built in, and many others are working as well. There's more updates to come this week on the Plugin update warpath, so stay tuned.
