Description

@dmike23

I get the following error when i run the main.py after setting up my config file:

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'capabilities'

{ "email" : "mmhogsett@gmail.com", "password" : "xxx", "keywords" : "Python", "location" : "Worldwide", "driver_path" : "C:/Users/micha/PycharmProjects/EasyApply-Linkedin/driver/chromedriver-win64/chromedriver.exe" }

ive tried using this instead:

{ "email" : "mmhogsett@gmail.com", "password" : "xxx", "keywords" : "Python", "location" : "Worldwide", "driver_path" : "driver/chromedriver-win64/chromedriver.exe" }

code is the same as yours:
