Need help setting up

Post by ThatITBloke »

I've been through the setup process and have done everything correctly (I think), but when I run the test of opening the calculator, it doesn't work.

The command appears to be getting through to P2R, but it can't find the phrase.

Adding an image in this forum doesn't appear to work for me, so I've saved a screenshot of my main window online here: http://www.thatitbloke.net/p2r.jpg

My Session log looks like this:

Code: Select all

Any suggestions?

I think I've found the issue - I needed to have curly braces around TextField in IFTTT, ie. {{TextField}}

Yes, that's it.

In IFTTT to add a Textfield into the body, you can either click on the 'Add ingredient' button and then the 'Textfield' option and have it inserted for you, or you can type '{{TextField}}' without the quotes. Sometimes it shows up as '{{TextField}}' other times it shows up as a grey button like thing with black text that says 'TextField'.

In any case, glad you got it working - hope the program will be of good use to you.

Ha! I had the same problem and this solution worked. Maybe in the same sentence of the instructions that says "not the quotes" you could note that the {{,}} are required...
