Anyone else getting this message? "Image was not able to get Liked! maybe blocked ?"

[crowg]

--> Image was not able to get Liked! maybe blocked ? --> Invalid Like Element! I am getting this message on every pic that should be liked... Before anyone ask, I am not blocked on instagram. And I am checking to see if anyone else is getting the same thing and would anyone know why this would be coming up on every photo?

[scottgrayson]

I get it as well. "Invalid Like Element" makes it seem like Instagram updated their website and the "Like Element" selectors need to be updated for the script https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy/blob/master/instapy/like_util.py#L675

Same here: --> Image was not able to get Liked! maybe blocked ?

[matteblacktrees]

Same for us. No liking capability.

Same here in headless browser mode. Also, unfollowing does not work in a headless browser.

INFO [2019-04-27 13:24:00] [iamkatrln] --> Already unfollowed 'elescosmetics'! or a private user that rejected your req

But the user is followed.

Same here since 25th. Only in headless browser mode. I can like trough app and web so I think I am not banned. I also have the problem @andrijasinski mentioned for unfollow feature.

Workaround: switch off headless browser mode (headless_browser=False) Please update if it is possible to use the like feature again with headless browser mode on.

[andrijasinski]

@timgrossmann need your attention here. This bug blocks usage if non headless browser is not an option.

Downgrade chrome browser to 72 and block auto update

[Harosteadi]

Many people found bugs with version 74 on MacOS. An example (open with chrome browser).

Whole list of bugs posted.

What I found and worked for me is downgrade from v.74 to v.72 following these steps Ian Zabel posted on GitHub.

• Remove Chrome Browser (I personally used CleanMyMac)

• Download v.72 here (cannot find a version of Chrome 73 anywhere...)

• Run the following command to prevent chrome from having permissions to execute the updater script

  sudo chmod -R 000 ~/Library/Google

• (and it can’t update itself any more unless you allow it again with the command)

  sudo chmod -R 755 ~/Library/Google

I suppose that Google ChromeDriver will be updated soon with these bug fixed, for now, downgrade is the temporary solution.

Thanks, will give it a try later

An alternative is to use Firefox and Gecko. This is working fine for me!
