[andreescocard]

[tourhuntr]

[tourhuntr]

Works now, changed the unfollow_util.py:

https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy/pull/3893/files

[tourhuntr]

Doesn't work until the end. Stopps in the middle of nowhere after about 20 followings (it should do 400) with no error message.

[ishandutta2007]

It still doesn't scroll and it still shows

Failed to load desired amount of users!

[ishandutta2007]

We already have issue tracked here https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy/issues/3896

[Deamoroth]

even after the correction displays the following message: "Failed to load desired amount of users!"

suddenly begins with a small amount collected and at a certain moment, begins to loop in a single user

[tourhuntr]

same here

[TarekJ03]

@uluQulu seems to have a fix for

Failed to load desired amount of users!

We just gotta wait until he opens a pr.

[Tr1pke]

[spikeyhair]

after using the latest version but seems like the issue for "Got 0 likers shuffled randomly whom you can follow:" is still exist.

[tourhuntr]

3910

doesn't work. Wants to follow the same person time and time again.

[tourhuntr]

me too. Only loads about 40 from 200 and trys to follow the same user

[Banginpadr]

doesn't work. Wants to follow the same person time and time again.

ok now is working. just to go the instapy file using terminal and run this command in terminal "git pull" and everything will work. the only problem that doesnt go away is that while it try to scroll down it also start following people. i dont want it to do that. even more because i dont even have the command in my file. the only work around that is that while it try to follow those users i unfollow them right away.

Hey @Banginpadr
Good that it works.

Why don't you configure your simulation setting?

Can anyone help with what I have to do to get this to work again? I guess the fix is not pushed to master yet since I tried redownloading and the issue continues- which branch can I take for a fix that works?

doesn't work for me on Mac OSX Chrome 71

Thanks!

i will try this and let you know if it works. thank you, this will be very helpful because sometimes i have to go out of my house in a rush or something and i don't have the time to run the program, then wait until it start trying to follow "maria" followers then having to unfollow them manually. because all i want is my account to like and comment on "maria" followers.

[tourhuntr]

Works again for me. Only copied from the raw file, open the unfollow.py in notepad++ and overrite the content with the copied.
