 The first two boxes on that dialog define the words that get used to locate the sublink containing a contact form (in URL and/or as anchor text). You don't have to change that as it is already fine tuned by default. The first two boxes on that dialog define the words that get used to locate the sublink containing a contact form (in URL and/or as anchor text).

 +===== Filter =====
 +
 +Filter can be used in almost any context to only get the websites of companies and persons you want.
 +
 +{{ :website_contact:filter_config.png?600 |}}
 +
 +If you want to setup an OR filter, you have to put it int his format:
 +  word1|word2|word3
 +The **|** acts as an OR, each new line acts as an AND.
 +
 +
 +===== Submission Content =====
 +
 +Of course you also have options to define how to fill the different fields of a web form as seen below.
 +
 +{{ :website_contact:define_fields.png?600 |}}
 +
 +You will see there are already pre-defined fields which should cover almost any input fields found in the contact forms. By default it is set to fill most fields with random data. This is of course changeable and should be changed to your needs.
 +
 +If you e.g. want to change the **City** from //Random// to your real city, you simply choose //How to Fill: Self-defined// on the dialog as seen in the screenshot above. When pressing //OK// you will get another dialog where you can fill things up. 
 +
 +Inside the Self-defined content, you can use many macros like: 
 +
 +  * **%url%, %domain%, %subdomain%, %host%** - Data from the original URL found with search engine or that you imported
 +  * **%title%** - the website title from the original URL
 +  * **%keyword%** - keywords used on that page in meta-keywords or the keyword you used to locate it
 +  * **%facebook%, %twitter%, %instagram%** - Social Media URLs if found on the page (else just the word (e.g. Facebook) is used).
 +  * **%facebookid%, %twitterid%, %instagramid%** - Same as above but just the ID is used, no full URL.
 +  * **%rnd_fname%, %rnd_lname%** - A random first/last name
 +  * **%rnd_country%, %rnd_state%, %rnd_city%, %rnd_zip%, %rnd_street%, %rnd_phone%** - Random address data
 +  * **%rnd_email%** - Random E-Mail
 +  * **[[search_engine_ranker:macro_guide#spinfile-_filename|%spinfile-<file|url|folder>%]]**
 +
 +
 +**You can also add new fields and even change all settings to your needs to let this program work as something completely different than submitting contact forms.** 
 +
 +At the very bottom of this dialog, you can also record all form fields and later review what might be worth adding to your project here.
 +
 +===== Captchas =====
 +
 +Captchas are a real problem and can also be seen as a disadvantage using this application as a replacement for traditional email marketing software. However, there are solutions here where you can use tools like [[captcha_breaker:|GSA Captcha Breaker]] or one of the many captcha solutions to help solve captchas.
