Welcome! This guide assumes that you have a working 4get instance. This will help you configure your instance to the best it can be!
## Files location
# Files location
1. The main configuration file is located at `data/config.php`
2. The proxies are located in `data/proxies/*.txt`
3. The captcha imagesets are located in `data/captcha/your_image_set/*.png`
4. The captcha font is located in `data/fonts/captcha.ttf`

# Cloudflare bypass
**Note: this only allows you to bypass the browser integrity checks. Captchas & javascript challenges will not be bypassed.**
Configuring this lets you fetch images sitting behind Cloudflare and allows you to scrape the **Yep** search engine. Following these instructions might make your package manager unhappy.
First, follow these instructions. Only install the Firefox modules:
https://github.com/lwthiker/curl-impersonate/blob/main/INSTALL.md#native-build
Once you did this, you should be able to run the following inside your terminal:
```sh
$ curl_ff117 --version
curl 8.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/8.1.1 NSS/3.92 zlib/1.2.13 brotli/1.0.9 zstd/1.5.4 libidn2/2.3.3 nghttp2/1.56.0
Release-Date: 2023-05-23
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher gophers http https imap imaps mqtt pop3 pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp ws wss
Features: alt-svc AsynchDNS brotli HSTS HTTP2 HTTPS-proxy IDN IPv6 Largefile libz NTLM NTLM_WB SSL threadsafe UnixSockets zstd
```
Now, after compiling, you should have a `libcurl-impersonate-ff.so` sitting somewhere. Mine (on my debian install) is located at `/usr/local/lib/libcurl-impersonate-ff.so`.
Find the `libcurl.so.4` file used by your current installation of curl. For me, this file is located at `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4`
Now comes the sketchy part: replace `libcurl.so.4` with `libcurl-impersonate-ff.so`. You can do this in the following way:
```sh
sudo rm /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4
sudo cp /usr/local/lib/libcurl-impersonate-ff.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4
```
Make sure to restart your webserver and/or PHP daemon, otherwise it will keep using the old library. You should now be able to bypass Cloudflare's shitty checks!!
# Robots.txt
Make sure you configure this right to optimize your search engine presence! Head over to `/robots.txt` and change the 4get.ca domain to your own domain.
## Server listing
# Server listing
To be listed on https://4get.ca/instances , you must contact *any* of the people in the server list and ask them to add you to their list of instances in their configuration. The instance list is distributed, and I don't have control over it.
If you see spammy entries in your instances list, simply remove the instance from your list that pushes the offending entries.
## Proxies
# Proxies
4get supports rotating proxies for scrapers! Configuring one is really easy.
1. Head over to the **proxies** folder. Give it any name you want, like `myproxy`, but make sure it has the `txt` extension.

Done! The scraper you chose should now be using the rotating proxies. When asking for the next page of results, it will use the same proxy to avoid detection!
### Important!
## Important!
If you ever test out a `socks5` proxy locally on your machine and find out it works but doesn't on your server, try supplying the `socks5_hostname` protocol instead. Hopefully this tip can save you 3 hours of your life!
