Can't download TikTok photo slideshows

[Jalenzzz]

For like maybe a week now I haven't been able to download TikTok photo posts like https://www.tiktok.com/@username/photo/123456789

When I try to download it returns [gallery-dl][error] Unsupported URL , I've tried with cookies, and without, both failed. Video posts download just fine though and I couldn't find any recent issues on matter on the issues page.

@Jalenzzz You've seen the PR that'll add support for TikTok photos. If you don't want to wait for it to get merged, you can install my fork using: pip install --upgrade https://github.com/CasualYT31/gallery-dl-tiktok-support/archive/tiktok-support.zip. You can then use gallery-dl as normal.

[Jalenzzz]

Oh! Will do that. Wasn't sure how to install your fork.

[Jalenzzz]

Yo @CasualYT31 your fork was working but then I had to upgrade gallery-dl and then upgrade to your fork and I'm back to getting unsupported URL errors for tiktok photo posts.

@Jalenzzz I rebased my fork onto the latest version of gallery-dl earlier today, you should just be able to use pip install --upgrade https://github.com/CasualYT31/gallery-dl-tiktok-support/archive/tiktok-support.zip to get what you want. Just realised I forgot to include install in the command I gave above. You might also have to force a clean reinstall using --force-reinstall.

I want to join your fork but I can't seem to get it working, so I have to write pip --force-reinstall --upgrade https://github.com/CasualYT31/gallery-dl-tiktok-support/archive/tiktok-support.zip ?

[CasualYT31]

@Devicetron Try pip install --force-reinstall --upgrade https://github.com/CasualYT31/gallery-dl-tiktok-support/archive/tiktok-support.zip and let me know if that works.
