error handling unfound elements w/ puppeteer
in my puppeteer crawler, im searching for some elements and they sometimes might not be there, so when they're not there, since the crawler is awaiting that element, if it isnt there, it causes an error that can often crash the crawler
ive tried wrapping the await element statements in try catch statements to handle errors and return but ive seen that it still returns errors because when it awaits the element, it needs to see that element to move on
i want it to be able to skip over unfound elements, scrape the OTHER elements on the page, and move on
a small snippet of the code:
