Hello,
if I have an URL like this: example.com/path/site.html it will not crawl pages for example.com/path/site/site2 Is this intentional? I am handling this case in my own code and remove the .html, but I think it would be more intuitive if this is done by default by the actor. I know about the glob settings, but this would be redundant.
Thanks!
Hi, thank you for using the Website Content Crawler.
Yes, this behavior is intentional. We have many customers who want to scrape a specific webpage without crawling, so they use URLs like example.com/path/site.html as a startUrl and also set Max crawling depth to 0.
You’re correct - you’ll need to either remove site.html from the URL or add example.com/path to the Include URLs (globs) setting.
Unfortunately, there isn’t another way to handle this at the moment.
I’ll close this issue for now, but feel free to reply here or open a new issue if you have further questions.
