1. If you've already [tried StashDB](#use-the-scene-tagger), you've already [tried ThePornDB](#use-theporndb-scraper), and you still want to scrape a site directly, you can try using a site-specific scraper. However, every scraper is going to work differently. Some will need Python installed. Others will need you to set a user agent or a Chrome CDP path. A handful will need to be edited and configured first. Only a few can search a studio's website for the right scene. The entire process is much more advanced and is different for each scraper, which is why we recommend StashDB and TPDB first for new users. They can all be found in [the same repo](https://github.com/stashapp/CommunityScrapers){:target="_blank"} where we found ThePornDB's scraper. You can download them individually like we did with the TPDB scraper or you can download the entire repo as a zip archive.

1. First you'll want to search [this page](https://github.com/stashapp/CommunityScrapers/blob/master/SCRAPERS-LIST.md){:target="_blank"} for your website to see if we have a scraper for it and to get an idea of what its requirements are. For most of these scrapers, you'll need to find and save a studio URL to your scene first. If you've managed to set up a fragment scraper, you can click on the "Scrape with..." button in the scene's edit tab to select your scraper. Typically fragment scrapers are better than URL scrapers, such as the MindGeekAPI scraper. Otherwise, you'll need to click the button at the far right end of the URL field to run a URL scraper. It should light up when the field is filled with a URL that matches one of your installed scrapers. That's about as detailed as we can get in this guide for new users. If you've tried StashDB, tried TPDB, checked the relevant documentation, checked your logs, and still can't get one of these scrapers working, you can ask for help on [Discord](https://discord.com/channels/559159668438728723){:target="_blank"} in the **#help** channel or in **#the-scraping-initiative**.
