Posted on by 105

hi,

since I installed this version of PAD, the robots fail me when I have multiple selectors and the first one doesn't work.

 

Why?

is a bug?

in previous versions it didn't happen, he simply tried with the second element

I have the same question (0)

    Hi @paronchi 

     

    Could you confirm whether the other selectors are also working?

    I checked, there are no dynamic selectors, which would change in the loop. However, o 2nd loop it would "freeze". I have action "Populate text field on web page", it would populate required text, but Flow action remains the same action - it doesn't go to next action although it has already populated text. it is neither throwing an error nor moving forward

    adding more info:
