Is it just me or does this update not follow any user atall

I get N/A follow Jackson
Next thing it does is to scrape users follows again

Basically I don't get the "followed x successfully"

Hey JJ, not sure why but unfollow module seem to not be working anymore for me.

Scrapping users to unfollow constantly gets me N/A as an answer if I check History. I didn't change anything in my Unfollow settings thus I am bit surprised :/

Hi!

I'm trying to like the most recent post of single usernames. I enter the user names in the user scraping field, with no parameters or filters, and it says that nothing could be scraped and consider changing your settings. Everything else works perfectly but I can't seem to figure this out - could it be something I'm doing wrong or is there an issue with the 'single username' scraping?

thanks again

The reason it isn't unfollowing any users is that, with the new update, the bot can't see the previous user that was followed. You can still however manually see the users followed in the user tracking tab. Any future users followed can be unfollowed without a problem.

Oh well, that kind of suck a lot doesn't it?
Since it's a BETA I won't complain but it will take me a hell lot of time to manually unfollow around 1500 people I should not be following any more .... !

Any tip on how I could do things ?

Maybe disabling the "Ignore external users" can do the trick

Any tip on how I could do things ? I could just click on the usernames in ''Tracked Users'' and unfollow them from my browser but I am afraid I would raise Instagram bots alarms with unfollowing too much people in a short time.

Thank you !

1. Update to the latest version of GMT2 (0.0.22) and run it.
2. Go to the folder "C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Local\gmt2\save\Datebase"
3. In this folder, there are 2 important files "IGUSERNAME_InteractedUsers.sqlite" and "IGUSERNAME_FollowedUsers.sqlite"
4. The file contains information about the users you have followed is in "IGUSERNAME_FollowedUsers.sqlite", you can view the contents of the file online here: https://sqliteonline.com/
5. Go to the site https://sqliteonline.com/ and load the file "IGUSERNAME_FollowedUsers.sqlite"
6. Then run the query ""
7. Run following queries (just copy and paste, then click on RUN):

ALTER TABLE TrackedUser RENAME TO TrackedUser_old;

CREATE TABLE "TrackedUser" (

"FilterArgument" varchar ,
"FilterTypeSql" integer ,
"FollowedBack" integer ,
"FollowedBackDate" integer ,
"InteractionDate" integer ,
"OperationType" integer ,
"Pk" varchar ,
"Username" varchar);

INSERT INTO TrackedUser (FilterArgument, FilterTypeSql, FollowedBack, FollowedBackDate, InteractionDate, OperationType, Pk, username)
SELECT FilterArgument, FilterTypeSql, FollowedBack, FollowedBackDate, InteractionDate, OperationType, Pk, username 
FROM TrackedUser_old;

UPDATE TrackedUser
SET OperationType = 1;

A new quick patch was released that fixed some issues with the last update:

- User settings are now stored. (theme, style, etc.)
- Fixed single user filter sometimes not working.
- Fixed interacted list to allow the same user multiple times. (Sadly the all the users you have interacted with have been wiped, how to recover this data will be explained)
- Get most recent posts when linking users instead of randomly liking images.
- Added option to disable safe delay when scraping. (This will make scraping EXTREMELY fast, but I have no idea if it's safe to disable it or not, so you can optionally disable it. By default it is enabled)



So if you want to restore the users you have followed follow these steps:

1. Update to the latest version of GMT2 (0.0.22) and run it.
2. Go to the folder "C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Local\gmt2\save\Datebase"
3. In this folder, there are 2 important files "IGUSERNAME_InteractedUsers.sqlite" and "IGUSERNAME_FollowedUsers.sqlite"
4. The file contains information about the users you have followed is in "IGUSERNAME_FollowedUsers.sqlite", you can view the contents of the file online here: https://sqliteonline.com/
5. Go to the site https://sqliteonline.com/ and load the file "IGUSERNAME_FollowedUsers.sqlite"
6. Then run the query ""
7. Run following queries (just copy and paste, then click on RUN):

Code:

ALTER TABLE TrackedUser RENAME TO TrackedUser_old;

CREATE TABLE "TrackedUser" (

"FilterArgument" varchar ,
"FilterTypeSql" integer ,
"FollowedBack" integer ,
"FollowedBackDate" integer ,
"InteractionDate" integer ,
"OperationType" integer ,
"Pk" varchar ,
"Username" varchar);

INSERT INTO TrackedUser (FilterArgument, FilterTypeSql, FollowedBack, FollowedBackDate, InteractionDate, OperationType, Pk, username)
SELECT FilterArgument, FilterTypeSql, FollowedBack, FollowedBackDate, InteractionDate, OperationType, Pk, username
FROM TrackedUser_old;

UPDATE TrackedUser
SET OperationType = 1;

Once you have done that, right click on TrackedUser_old table, and drop it.
Then save the the DB (File > save) and repalce the "IGUSERNAME_InteractedUsers.sqlite" file (rename the saved file to match "IGUSERNAME_InteractedUsers.sqlite")

If you now open the program and go to User Tracking tab and view interacted users, you will see all your old users and the bot will unfollow them.

Thank you JJ but frankly.. this is just too complicated for me. I went to https://sqliteonline.com/ and did the first steps then I am just lost, I am afraid I will more fuck up things than improve them.
Hopefully, none of your future updates will have the same problem. At least, please let us know in advance so I don't follow people a few days before you make your updates and focus on unfollow. Will do them manually this time, no other option.

Thanks


EDIT: While trying to follow your technical advice, I restarted the bot and thus downloaded the last update.

The list of ''Interacted Users'' when I click ''Overview'' in the User Tracking basically disappeared. The list of Unfollowed Users is still there.
Losing that history of followed users makes me unable to manually easily unfollow the people I need to.

This is not cool But again, this is BETA, so I guess I shouldn't complain. Will stop using the tool for now unless you can help me somehow easily / unless you can say that this kind of things won't happen any more with future updates.

Don't do anything like this when you will have v1 and paying customers though. I guess you know that.

please jj in next update try to stop the bot from trying to login after an account gets a checkpoint(verification) issue jeez this makes the account disabled if not addressed on time.If an account hits a verification issue,the bot should stop any activity on such account completely.Nice work with the updates

The tool crashes when I click the "import file" button in user scraping, and I think you may want to do some simple tutorial because I see many people are frustrated how to use to tool.

Great GUI btw

I really love your work @JJJackson

Finally managed to make it work. I think you need to redo this part. I would make a link or button which will say "Enable" or "Activate". Just my 2 cents.

Checked the tool, works as promised. So far - no bugs on my part, it does the job exactly as I set it to do. Thanks

I found the follow feature is quite slow even when I turn off the scraping delay.
Run for few hours now but only follows 60 accs
