    I am trying to create posts in my website for recreational rentals.

    I am attempting to scrape the url https://rvshare.com/rvs/details/1133961

    If you view the json data for this url, you can see the coordinates of the listing.

    Can I scrap these coordinates to complete a custom field in my post?

    Hi, I checked the URL https://rvshare.com/rvs/details/1133961 and I cannot see any coordinates there? Can you please show it using the screenshot?
    Also, you can scrape/import the data that are visible in the website (scraper visual editor). Let us know. Thanks!

    Hi, you cannot scrape such values. Basically, you can only fetch correctly, the data visible in Scraper’s visual editor.
    But you can still fetch some data entering the XPath manually. In above case, it’s not possible to fetch only the geo-coordinates, but I was able to scrape that script block as a whole using below XPath:
    //script[contains(@type,"application/ld+json")][5]

    Also, the scraper is not completing fields from WP Job Manager

    Hello, this is great! You were able to capture the coordinates it looks like. I Need the following WP Job manager fields to be completed. Once I get on template made I can use this for all the listings on my website. Here are the fields I need…

    job_category (This is a taxonomy)
    job_region (This is a taxonomy)
    job_description_2
    job_price
    job_payment_method
    Can you please take a look and see why it wont complete any of these fields?

    Thank you so much!
