ERROR #500: User "****" does not exist.

I'm currently having same issue, this error comes up very often and get fixed with every patch Iniwidget get, but yet not documented or traced anywhere on the site or github page, is there some "tips and tricks" that we could use to get rid of this error by ourself?

From version to version, Instagram website change something in his undocumented API, so I cannot specific every time, what kind of error happen exactly.

As usual error "500: User "****" does not exist" mean that widget couldn't extract user data from request.

For now, it was happen because all automatic methods of parse Instagram website now are tracking and requiring authorization + two-step conformation.

Some users doesn't have this problem, but by my opinion, it will affect everyone.

The only simple solution now is use proxy and IP address rotation.

Ah, this alone is very useful, i can work with that. So there finally is time that we need to create developer api key or token, or whatever IG calling it. Thank you.
