Need WASP user guide
Just signed up for WASP Pro and can't seem to find a user guide to get started. There has to be help file to define the terms and suggest best practices, especially given I paid for the Pro edition. Please help.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi there,
there is no "user guide" per say but the crawl wizard includes explanation of each of the parameter when mousing over the "?" beside each option.
However, a "getting started' video and some additional explanations are on the way. If you need any help setting the crawler options, don't hesitate to contact me directly and I'll help you get started.
Regards,
Stéphane

Thanks for offering to help! What does it mean by max depth (recursivity)? What is a tag file and what does it do? If I have a site that the tool says has over 9000 pages why would it only scan 2000 when I have the limit set at 15000? -
Inappropriate?Max depth: If you think of your site like a directory structure, how many directory down do you want to go? If /path/sub-path/page.htm and Max Depth is set to 1, WASP will look only up to /path/page.htm and not in /path/sub-path.
WASP tag file: is the name & location of the database used for storing crawl data. If you were to work with multiple sites and wanted to keep the data for each crawl, you could use one database for each site. In general you can leave this to the default value.
Scan 2000:: the 9,000 pages is an indication based on what Google search see (i.e. I ask Google how many pages of the given site it has in its database). This is just an estimate. Did WASP stop after 2000 pages with an error? Do you know how many pages there are on your site? If you provide me the link I could double-check.
