Bazaraki Post Ad

Prerequisites

• User is logged in to Bazaraki.com in Chrome
• Claude in Chrome extension is active

Workflow

Step 1 — Gather listing info

Collect from the user or from any description .md files they provide:

• Title — max 80 chars, no forbidden words: sale/urgent/sell/price/rent/inexpensively
• Price in €, negotiable yes/no
• Category — see Category Reference below
• Condition — Used or New
• Description — plain text, no phone/email; end with "Collection from [city]. Cash only."
• WhatsApp — enable? (usually yes)

---

Step 2 — Navigate

Go to https://www.bazaraki.com/post_ad/

---

Step 3 — Select category (3 levels, separate JS calls)

// Click each level one at a time — do NOT use setTimeout, use separate JS calls
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('[data-rubric-id]'))
  .find(e => e.dataset.rubricId === 'LEVEL1_ID' && e.offsetParent !== null)?.click();

Repeat for Level 2 and Level 3. Verify the leaf element has class --selected, then click Continue:

// ⚠️ Use getComputedStyle — NOT offsetParent — to find the visible Continue button
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button'))
  .find(b => b.textContent.trim() === 'Continue' &&
    window.getComputedStyle(b).display !== 'none')?.click();

Category Reference:

Item	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Sofa / Living room	663	13 (Furniture)	2241 (Dining, living room furniture)
Coffee / side table	663	13	2241
Desk / Office	663	13	2683 (Desks for home & office)
Bedroom	663	13	2243 (Beds, bedroom furniture)
Bookcase	663	13	2688 (Bookcase & CD shelves)
Other furniture	663	13	103 (Other furniture)
Garden furniture	663	14 (Garden, patio)	—
Kids furniture	7 (Kids' stuff)	60 (Furniture)	3112 (Other)

---

Step 4 — Set location

document.querySelector('.item__location-popup.--profile')?.click();
// Verify: document.querySelector('input[name="location"]')?.value  // "413" = Limassol–Ypsonas

---

Step 5 — Fill title ⚠️ IFRAME TRICK

The title field is a rich-text editor inside an <iframe> — not a standard input. Setting textarea[name="title"] value does nothing (it's off-screen at x=-9999px).

const iframe = document.querySelector('.js-title-codemirror iframe');
const body = iframe?.contentDocument?.body;
if (body) {
  body.textContent = 'YOUR TITLE HERE';
  ['input', 'keyup', 'change'].forEach(evt =>
    body.dispatchEvent(new Event(evt, {bubbles: true}))
  );
}

---

Step 6 — Fill price, negotiable, description, WhatsApp (one JS call)

const price = document.querySelector('input[name="price"]');
price.value = '250';
['input','change'].forEach(e => price.dispatchEvent(new Event(e, {bubbles:true})));

const neg = document.getElementById('negotiable_price');
if (neg && !neg.checked) neg.click();

const desc = document.querySelector('textarea[name="description"]');
desc.value = `DESCRIPTION TEXT HERE`;
['input','change'].forEach(e => desc.dispatchEvent(new Event(e, {bubbles:true})));

const wa = document.getElementById('show_contacts_whatsapp');
if (wa && !wa.checked) wa.click();

---

Step 7 — Fill custom dropdowns

Bazaraki uses custom JS dropdowns (not native <select>). Always inspect first:

const dropdowns = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.js-dropdown.dd-block'))
  .filter(d => d.offsetParent !== null);

// Inspect all options
dropdowns.map((d, i) => ({
  index: i,
  label: d.querySelector('.dd-label')?.textContent?.trim(),
  items: Array.from(d.querySelectorAll('.js-dd-item')).map(li => li.textContent.trim())
}))

// Select an option
Array.from(dropdowns[INDEX].querySelectorAll('.js-dd-item'))
  .find(li => li.textContent.trim() === 'OPTION_TEXT')?.click();

⚠️ Selecting one dropdown may reveal a sub-dropdown — always re-inspect after each selection.

---

Step 8 — Verify

({
  title:     document.querySelector('.js-title-codemirror iframe')?.contentDocument?.body?.textContent,
  price:     document.querySelector('input[name="price"]')?.value,
  location:  document.querySelector('input[name="location"]')?.value,
  dropdowns: Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.js-dropdown.dd-block'))
               .filter(d => d.offsetParent !== null)
               .map(d => d.querySelector('.dd-label')?.textContent?.trim()),
  whatsapp:  document.getElementById('show_contacts_whatsapp')?.checked,
  negotiable: document.getElementById('negotiable_price')?.checked,
})

All dropdowns must show real values (not "Choose one...").

---

Step 9 — Pause for photos ⏸️

Chrome blocks programmatic file upload. Scroll to the images section:

Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.form-group, .grey.place'))
  .find(g => g.textContent.includes('Images:') && g.offsetParent !== null)
  ?.scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth', block: 'center'});

Tell the user: "✅ All fields filled! Please upload photos, then confirm here."

---

Step 10 — Submit

After user confirms photos are uploaded, scroll to and ask user to click "Post an ad":

document.querySelector('input[type="submit"], button[type="submit"]')
  ?.scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth', block: 'center'});

Multiple listings

After each ad is posted, navigate back to https://www.bazaraki.com/post_ad/ and start from Step 3. Keep the user updated: "Ad 2/5 — starting now..."
