Increase page wait time

I have a Deja Click alert for a page that sometimes takes a while to load. I get false positives on the keyword validation, as Alert Site seems to only wait a few seconds before deciding that the keyword is not present. 

 

How do I increase the wait time prior to keyword validation failure cutting an alert?

    Hi Geoffrey,

    You can try to do the following in DejaClick:

    • Open the Edit Keyword Validation dialog
    • Select Advanced in Display Level
    • Specify Continue Waiting in the Action Options | Perform this Action option

    Does this help?

      I have updated the script and will let you know if we continue to see validation timeouts, thanks!

       

      One question, though -- what happens if we really do have a timeout due to the page being down? Does this setting just essentially tell the alert to continue waiting until the overall timeout hits?

       

      Thanks again!
