Automating getting images for Hootsuite's Bulk Upload?

A lot of people complain about how when you bulk upload messages into Hootsuite for your accounts they do not publish with images. The work around is clicking edit on each message and waiting for the image to load. Which as you can imagine is hours if you have a lot of posts and clients.

I use this imacro, but it requires that I enter numbers of the messages each time, which takes a lot of time as well.

TAG POS=85 TYPE=A ATTR=HREF:https://hootsuite.com/dashboard#
WAIT SECONDS=10
TAG POS=1 TYPE=SPAN ATTR=TXT:Save<SP>Changes
WAIT SECONDS=10
TAG POS=88 TYPE=A ATTR=HREF:https://hootsuite.com/dashboard#
WAIT SECONDS=10
TAG POS=1 TYPE=SPAN ATTR=TXT:Save<SP>Changes
WAIT SECONDS=10

Anyway to improve this imacro so it doesn't have to grab the tag position and so I can just set this on loop? Or maybe another way to go about this. Any input would help.
 


I'd imagine you can use the loop function... not sure how you use it to append a var to the end of each line though.

Found this - any help?

Yea I was expecting something with looping the variables. I'm just not knowledgeable enough to figure out how to do it for this. I did something similar for automatically favoriting people on Twitter:

SET !TIMEOUT_PAGE 1
SET !ERRORIGNORE YES
SET !VAR1 {{!LOOP}}
TAG POS={{!VAR1}} TYPE=B ATTR=TXT:Favorite
WAIT SECONDS=4

^^That imacro still works if anyone is still interested in automatically favoriting tweets.
 
Thanks but burnt one of my Twitter accounts with iMacros once. As you can tell I'm an expert at writing these things! ;)
