Question

I'm trying to scroll a website to click on follow buttons, each time I run my code it will follow the first 4 people and then run into an error.

my code is

''' def follow():

driver.implicitly_wait(30)  
counter = 1  
        

#create base x path to alow us to add 4 each time
base_xpath = '//*[@id="react-root"]/div/section/div[3]/div/div/div[3]/div/div[3]/main/div[1]/div[2]/ul/li['

for i in range(4, 80000, 4): # skipping by 4 each time up to 80000 starting at 4
  xpath = base_xpath + str(i) + ']/button/span'

  scrollTarget = driver.find_element_by_xpath(xpath)
 
  driver.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollIntoView()', scrollTarget)
  print("scrolling")
  sleep(5)
  try:
    for i in range(4):
        driver.implicitly_wait(25)
        elem = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[text()="Follow"]')
        elem.click()
        counter = counter + 1
        print("we followed someone " + str(counter))
  
  except NoSuchElementException:
       pass  
    #sleep(15)
    
    

'''

the error is

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/twiggygarcia/Documents/Coding and Scripts/mixcloud bot/mixcloud bot v1.py", line 94, in follow()

it seems to be related to this line

selenium.common.exceptions.ElementClickInterceptedException: Message: element click intercepted: Element ... is not clickable at point (767, 8). Other element would receive the click:

I would like to avoid the error and keep clicking on the remains buttons
