Plugin Stopped Working

[louiswalch]

I noticed yesterday that my Instagram feed stopped working. Debugging it looks like the Ajax request is being redirected to a login page on IG. This is happening on more then one use using the script and they both have public feeds.

Any idea what's going on?

This is related to #25 which is an Instagram temporary network restriction. Also update to the lastest version which detects this.

It stopped working for me too. I switched from Wifi to data network so that the request count by IP was clear and it was still blocking the requests (redirecting to login)

For clear IP try to use VPN. Your Wi-fi and Ethernet could actually have the same IP

Hi my friend, I can confirm that the problem persists after using VPN from 3 different countries.

Hm. Let us wait for 24 hours (usual time to be unbanned). For me, script is working fine now.

Hi, I am having this same issue as well. I am assuming I just made too many requests from Instagram as I was making revision after revision and CTRL+R-ing my page. Basically, Instagram is mad at me and my IP address, lol.

It seems a completely different Instagram plugin I am running on another site has also stopped working at this time, which enforces this theory.

I will update after some time has passed and see if the issue clears up on its own. Love your work on this plugin, I think it is great and believe it will work itself out.

Hello everyone, I can attest that after 48+ hours I tested with 2+ VPNs and my regular connection and the result is the same as before:

Instagram Feed: It looks like YOUR network has been temporary banned because of too many requests.

What about demo site? Does it work for you?

[josep11]

Nope, it does not work and I have an important piece of information to share with you. The first 4 sites that show up on Google if you want to download a video from Instagram have problems at the moment. So I think IG changed a policy because they all redirect to /login.
The 4 sites are:

• https://www.w3toys.com/
• https://downloadgram.com/
• https://downloadinstagramvideos.net/
• https://instadownloader.co/instagram.php

Ok.
But at the moment, all (actually 2) of my sites with this great script are working fine. Maybe this is a regional restriction or a regional rollout of new rules. And maybe soon all of as will face such a problem. Will see...

Can you tell me which countries are you sending the requests from?
I am in Vietnam and it is not working. VPN from Poland, Netherlands and UK neither.

[mahotilo]

Ukraine.
But I have just found that Opera VPNs from all regions have stopped working for me too.
Yesterday VPNs worked fine.

The demo site site not working for me either. I am in the United States.

[jsanahuja]

It is working for me. I believe this is just a network ban from Instagram

[blueboo42]

Update: it is working again for me as well. Must have been a network ban from Instagram as many above suggested. Thank you!

Still the same issue here after one week without trying so I don't know what to do.

My current state.
Flawless work of this script on the real sites through direct access and ban through VPNs.
And all my other free IG scripts from third-party providers are dead.
I think IG has changed the rules of the game.
