Answer 1

You were pretty close. To extract all the names and addresses from the webpage https://www.yell.com/ you have to induce WebDriverWait for the visibility_of_all_elements_located() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

• Code Block:

  names = [my_elem.text for my_elem in WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "span.businessCapsule--name")))]
  address = [my_elem.text for my_elem in WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a.businessCapsule--address")))]
  for i,j in zip(names, address):
      print("{} address is {}".format(i, j))
  

• Note : You have to add the following imports :

  from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
  from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
  from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

Answer 2

You are trying to access the list with the length of it instead of the iterator variable i

print(f"{names[num_page_items].text} : {address[num_page_items].text}")

to

print(f"{names[i].text} : {address[i].text}")

Answer 3

You want to use the index i to iterate over names and address, not the list size

for i in range(num_page_items):
    print(f"{names[i].text} : {address[i].text}")

Or just loop on both with zip

for name, ad in zip(names, address):
    print(f"{name.text} : {ad.text}")
