..and it is wallabagger only. I don't get content with wallabag UI or FTR due to cloudflare's bot detection

No issue with them. I went for the fastest way to make it work.
I had no luck with Wallabagger, though. This worked for me only with server-side fetching. So I'm not sure that the comment at the top is correct. -- Olivier Mehani @.***> Sent from my mobile, please excuse my brevity.

Ah, right. No, this worked for me with the user-agent switch. However, my Wallabag is coming from the same IPv4 as I do, so this may have helped.
Does Wallabagger use site-configs, too?

That is very confusing. You are right, @shtrom. I get content with wallabag UI on app.wallabag.it and the hosted FTR at fivefilters.net. But I don't get content on my self-hosted versions :-( Even after restarting my router to get a new external IPv4.
My FTR/wallabag do have the same IPv4 as my desktop browser, so maybe that ip-range or my country is lowering my cloudflare score below that point where the content gets through. I even disarmed my PiHole for this test, without success.

Wallabagger doesn't need any site-depended config. It is an extension for desktop browsers. And when activated in its settings, wallabagger is pushing the whole website-html, which is already interpreted by Firefox/Chrome/etc, to wallabag and there, wallabag is using its site-configs to extract the necessary parts.
Edit: Thank you for testing and reporting. My changes are now committed.
Yep. I'm using Wallabager as a last resort when I can't work out a functional site-config, or when there's a JS loader of some sort.
But I'm curious about how it works, if it doesn't need site-configs.
I guess I'll have to go read the source heh. -- Olivier Mehani @.***> Sent from my mobile, please excuse my brevity.
Oh, nevermind, you explained the last bit in the end. -- Olivier Mehani @.***> Sent from my mobile, please excuse my brevity.
hhm,
That doesn't look like a reliable way to strip something. I will have a deeper look later.
