Users keeps changing their username #7

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

I have the script running 24/7 checking stories for this specific user and I noticed that he keeps changing her username. Once he does that, the script won't download his stories until I manually enter his new username in the .txt file. Is it possible to implement a feature that once the script runs on a .txt file , it automatically writes all the identifiers of every username from the .txt file into a new one and the script continues to run from the identifier instead of the username, so once they change their username the script would continue?

You can now pass user ids yourself (get them from here).

Just add them to the txt file.
