[BETA] Instagram Automation Bot | GMT2

Status
Not open for further replies.
New update v0.1.13:

- GMT2 will now exit properly when closed: All threads will be disposed of.
- Fixed unable to update username, if the username is available.
- Added 6 new application styles.
- Fixed module still continuing if the account is paused and the module has already started.
- Increased delay after failing to scrape enough users with a specific scraping parameter. (should fix most of the "stopped all modules" error)
- Fixed issue of where scraping would continue pointlessly if the filter "max days old post" was enabled and the bot was scraping from a specific hashtag feed while all posts were older than the specified amount of days.
- Improved whitelist dialog and added ability to refresh followings from the whitelist directly.
- Fixed getting stuck in a login loop when the session was expired.
- Fixed crash when saving some settings (template settings, account settings, ...)

Currently have been mainly working on the batch uploader and it is nearly done, the only thing to do is implement custom caption support.

Please please please, when you can fix the photo cropping option. I dont want black bars on my photos. Its the only thing your app is missing. Ill subscribe to you man, best bot ever. And I wll get some friends to do the same
 
@JJJackson If I may suggest a work around to this, the bot not knowing when an account was followed outside of gmt2 and thus unfollowing that same day.
What Followliker and MP use is that when they refresh the Followings, that is the day that the bot sets as the account being followed (Day 0).
So, if I follow today and the bot refreshes today, today is Day 0.
If I follow today, and the gmt2 was off until tomorrow, tomorrow when it does the Followings refresh will be Day 0 for that account followed outside of gmt2.
This way if we set to Unfollow after X 1, or X7, the bot will wait 1 day or x number of days before unfollowing since the day that the account goes into the followings database is day 0.

Would you be able to implement this work around?

This is a good workaround, but I will need to make sure it doesn't brake any other features if implemented.

JJackson, can you help me with this please?

Instagram made me add a phone number when I logged in from a different computer once.

Ever since then, this is all I get with this tool. (BTW, I'm able to login to instagram fine from the same computer the tool is installed on).

Download the lastest version, should fix your problem.

Downloaded the bot friday noon, configured it and tested it out on a newly made account.
Followed 70 users and set it up to like around 100 pictures. Worked like a charm. This was on the version the download link holds. I updated it two times since then, currently on v0.1.13.
Follow module still works but Like module stopped working. When i check my logfile i see:

Code:

In the errorlog there is this:

Did i mess up a setting somewhere? Or did i push the limits of normal use and instagram blocked something?

Nice bot btw, not too complicated and simple in use, great work!

`This action was blocked. Please try again later. We restrict certain content and actions to protect our community. Tell us if you think we made a mistake.` Means you are temp blocked from performing a specific action.

When uploading photo's now, isntead of adding black borders, photo's are cropped to the center. In the future I may add a proper way to resize images.

Please do add a proper way to resize photos in the future cause its much easier to type captions on computer
 
After a few hours of working, the bot always says it has "stopped working".
Does anyone know how can I fix this?
 
If you put multiple filters, will it scrape from both of them? or is it like a fine tuning thing and applys both... so say i do recent activity + location, does it only search people that have recently liked in that location? or does it search for people, in a certain location, + search for people that recently liked something seperately
 
what is the format the accounts should be in the.txt file in order to be imported sucessfully????????

When scraping users it will pick a random scraping source each time. Different sources won't affect each other.

where is the program data saved

C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Local\gmt2\save

what is the format the accounts should be in the.txt file in order to be imported sucessfully????????

Hover over the import button and it will tell you what the import format it.

The bot will go from one filter to the next. No fine tuning yet. You can view which filter performs best by going to User Tracking-Graphs.

You can select several filters under Settings-(Follow Module) Edit Settings-User Scraping (drop down view of filters available).
 
I am totally new to using bots.

1. I have downloaded and saved the template on the program. When I click on follow module it goes back to 'X'. Do I need to do something with the settings? I have touched the settings yet after downloading the program, just simply uploaded the template.

2. Also what is the safest template for following new users and liking pictures?
 
Will you be increasing number of threads anytime soon?

Only if people are having issues, otherwise I will increase it at release. Are you having issues that you are asking?

keep getting stuck on getting user feed after the client crashes >.<

Send me your log files.

Read the error that it generates it will tell you what to do. If you don't know what you are doing, just download a template. Try using one of the medium templates.

I can't seem to reach my daily follow limits. Running 28 accounts, 450 follows, 460 unfollow. Usually ends up at a maximum of 200 each. Thought the increase of threads would solve the problem.
 
I tested this tool for 2 days and it's work great so far. i will test one more week but i think will do the job for me. Thanks!
