    Hello, I have purchased this fantastic plugin. I want to parse multiple posts from wikidoc.com.
    I do not want to scrape the table of contents, and I want the scraper to start from a certain paragraph and below.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thank you very much for your prompt response. I want to scrape content from a list urls, one of them is https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Glycogen_storage_disease_type_V.
    I want to scrape everything below Overview. When I use the scraper it takes everything, including the table of contents on the right which I do not want.

    Best Regards

    I checked it and because of the HTML structure in this site, the content without table of content cannot be scraped. You’ll need to filter out the unwanted content in your site’s frontend. You can either remove it using code before displaying or else use CSS like below (in theme’s stylesheet) to hide it.

    table.infobox { display:none !important; }

    Thanks & Regards!
