I provided a PR with updated Xpath at least for the follow/unfollow functionality

Same here

There may have been an IG change. I am trying to follow the users who like photos of specific accounts. It has worked perfectly until a few hours ago.

If you guys want to give it a quick run to confirm that it may be IG, I'm running the following line of code (which is also on the main InstaPy page).

session.follow_likers( ['account1', 'account2'], photos_grab_amount = 2, follow_likers_per_photo = 20, sleep_delay=0, randomize=False, interact=False)

and receiving the following:

opening likes ('Scrolling down... ', 0, '->', 0, ' / ', 20) Like window closed ('\nGot ', 0, ' likers shuffled randomly, who you can follow:\n', [], '\n')

Hi,
yes IG seems to have changed smth. The xpaths changed so instapy wont find the elements

I provided a PR with updated Xpath at least for the follow/unfollow functionality

Thanks. it works now.

Does not work using
session.follow_user_followers(['friend1', 'friend2', 'friend3'], amount=10, randomize=False)

Yes, seems to be an issue still. I'll look into it as well once I get some free time.

Have this one as well!

plus one on this as well. going to try the updated xpath

**So far it is working now. Thank You
