Not Scraping Anything

Hello, I'm trying to scrape the shorts from a channel but it only gave me one result with no information on views, likes, comments. It seemed to have scraped from the about page but I didn't put /about in the url search.

Hello thank you for opening this issue.

First of all, let me reassure you that scraping the /about url is correct and is just a way for the scraper to work. Try any other url like https://www.youtube.com/@MrBeast and look in the log and you we'll see that the /about url would come up but you will get the correct results.

This is a problem on Youtube side. If you try to click on https://www.youtube.com/@WGTS919 you'll see that you'll also get the 404 error like the scraper does. To overcome this you should use this url https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCACc1OXD8Y7EcZ9qIIQlVJA (I got this on the. WGTS webpage but it's basically youtube.com/channel/<channel ID>, if you'll ever need it in the future) that points correctly to the youtube channel.

Hope this helps! I'll close this issue but feel free to reopen it if you have more questions.

Happy scraping
