Ok , so if you know any other way please share that skill ;)

[scaruslooner]

Same issue

[data2005]

I am not much familiar with python language but a quick look at the code it seems that the Skillshare account info that was used to download videos is perhaps no longer valid as all videos except first one has no video hash value which is exposed only if one has a valid subscription. Thanks

[calvinhobbes23]

This is account issue. If someone has an account to spare, I can fix it. please upload credentials in a text file here: https://www.saggy.xyz/folders/cb86e97869fad500e678860850cc11a5 password: share

file will vanish. This is by design. Thanks

You mean a GitHub account or a Skillshare account?

[calvinhobbes23]

skillshare account is needed for this to be fixed. I will fix the repo code once I have the account

[Myselfmru]

skillshare account is needed for this to be fixed. I will fix the repo code once I have the account

Can this be a free skillshare account? I mean there are 30 days trials.... Can we contribute in sharing an account for that?

@AbdulUsman45 and @calvinhobbes23 guys is there a way to make the Skillshare DL code work?

[calvinhobbes23]

I am still waiting for someone to share a skillshare account. I don't have a way to get one, sorry.

[overhaul666]

@AbdulUsman45 come on bro share ur skillshare acc. and stop promoting ur telegram

I am still waiting for someone to share a skillshare account. I don't have a way to get one, sorry.

[Myselfmru]

Guys, from what I read on the threads, a free Skillshare account will work. Given that there are 30 days trials, if 12 members share a trial account every month in turn, we can make this work for a year. Just an example. Now correct me if I'm wrong. So I don't see what could go wrong. OR am I on the wrong track? Please guide.

How to get 30 days free trial❓ Any article ❓

[data2005]

if you go to https://www.skillshare.com/ site at the top is currently 1 month trial offer. such as link https://www.skillshare.com/membership/checkout?via=teacher-referral-blue-banner . You will have to register and add payment details. You will not be charged till 30th day (maybe cancel on the 29th day).

i think it depends upon the nation to nation.... I can't see any 30 days trial

[data2005]

Maybe try with VPN? I tried and I could see the following

Get 1 free month of Skillshare Get unlimited access to thousands of inspiring classes Taught by industry leaders & working professionals Topics include illustration, design, photography, and more

Thank you for this and to all the members that involves in skillshare dl to make it working ✌️🤩

[surajcdry]

Thank you so much @calvinhobbes23! Till when will this be solved? Really needed a course asap.

[calvinhobbes23]

So I have some bad news. As someone earlier explained in another issue comment, the cookie now needs PHPSESSID value for it to work however that expires in 1-2 minutes and download stops. It seems skillshare may be fighting this download method and they seem to be succeeding. I am not the original developer but if someone has a solution please create a pull request and I will merge.

[calvinhobbes23]

Thank you @saifeealii for the account however! EDIT: fixed the name

[Jhonny1021]

@calvinhobbes23 I have been able to download from python directly and in the terminal as the steps that are described

[data2005]

    dl.download_course_by_url(course_url)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    splash()

• Next Type pip install -r requriments.txt

• After you have successfully installed all required packages
• Type python dl.py "COURSE_LINK"
• Now, All the files will be saved one by one

This method very well works but it means the person downloading the course must have access to the cookie/account in their browser to extract PHPSESSID value and most likely needs to use the same pc to download. i.e. no colab.
