[fairytail0000]

I am in abit of confuse and frustrated here . i been wanting to unfollow with this account but followliker hasnt been unfollowing the people yet. its been dragging for a week and i have no idea why despite letting it rest . Can someone give me some guidance?

You have set "Unfollow After" to 3 days. It means your account will only unfollow people every three days (e.g., Monday, Wednesday, Friday). Besides, the interval is a bit too big. Set "Unfollow Limit" to 5 - 10 and the "Delay Unfollow" to 20 - 25 seconds. But before doing this, make sure your account is aged. If it's not, you might want to take it easy with the unfollows. Make it less than or equal to 600.

Also, if this is not your churn and burn account, don't always unfollow with a 3-day gap in between. It will create a pattern and flag your account.

Uhh, I always thought that it unfollowed accounts that you followed x days ago or older.

Haha. Nope. Say you set "Unfollow After" to 3 days on a Monday. It will unfollow on Monday and then start to unfollow again on Wednesday.

Then, what's the point of the weekday schedule? You can set days for Unfollow there.

It makes no sense to have that if Unfollow After doesn't filter accounts you've followed for at least x days now (to give time for people to followback if interested).

From the Followliker manual:

Unfollow After (Days) - This is the number of days to wait before attempting to unfollow a user (days counting begins on the day that the user was followed with the software or the day that the username was added to the followings table in the project). If you enter 0 in the input box, all previously followed users will be queued for unfollowing. It is not advisable to use 0 if you are following users at the same time.

From the Followliker manual:

But when I set "Unfollow After" to 2 days, it didn't unfollow anyone the next two days. It said "You set Unfollow After to two days" in the Activity Log the whole time.

I've opened a ticket with FollowLiker support about this now. I'll update you when I hear from them.

Happy to help, man. Six months will work just fine. But it is safe to keep unfollows around 600. If you make money mainly from that account, you don't want to lose it, right?

Glad you got the issues resolved OP. And even more glad that you posted the obvious rebuttal to the explanation above which is entirely inaccurate per the user guide, and my results. The reason it didn't unfollow anyone kevinlewontin when you made the change to "Unfollow After 2 days," is because it resets the table when you change the setting ... so the two days that has to pass didn't pass yet. That's why your activity log will show, "You set to unfollow after 2 days. There are no users to unfollow."

I'm pretty sure that's the response you will get from support since that's how the software is both intended to work, and how it does work.

This can also happen if you file -> clear > "Clear All Session Cookies" I think, but I'm less confident about that one. I just thought it happened to me a few times.

I see that OP resolved his own problem by correctly selecting 0 in the right settings spot per his follow-up response.

I'm sorry, I didn't quite understand what you said. But I just want to know this: "Unfollow After" X days unfollows followers after X days or unfollows users that we followed X days ago? Former or latter?

When you start a new account and set unfollow to 3 days:
Day 1 - follow 100, unfollow - 0
Day 2 - follow 200, unfollow - 0
Day 3 - follow 300, unfollow - 0
Day 4 - follow 400, unfollow - 100(from day 1)
Day 5 - follow 500, unfollow - 200(from day 2)
Day 6 - follow 600, unfollow - 300(from day 3)
And so on.
If you're following every day, then you will unfollow every day as well in order that the user was added to the table.

Hey. In my FL daily statistics for example it shows that it has unfollowed 175 and keeps going up. However in reality it hasn't unfollowed anyone. Neither does it show in the activity log. Why is this happening?
