instabot version Code: from schedule script.

def like_hashtags():
    bot.like_hashtag(random_hashtag_file.random(), amount=700 // 24)

def like_timeline():
    bot.like_timeline(amount=300 // 24)

from config.py

 HASHTAGS_FILE = "hashtag_database.txt"
# The file containing hashtags you want to track: the bot will like and comment
# photos and follow users using the hashtags in this file

USERS_FILE = "username_database.txt"
# Same as HASHTAGS_FILE, but with users. The bot will follow those users'
# followers and like their posts

each of these files has simple list of known hashtags and accounts (this has been validated against insta)

Describe your issue

When running instabot , its working as expected until it likes a timeline or hashag. I know that the accounts and hashtags are valid, also I have discounted internet issues as the bot runs perfectly fine except them liking timeline and hashtags. I have been using older versions of instabot and had no issues with timeline and hashtags before.

I am also seeing the error "feedback_required." I read that is insta searching for Bots ?

thanks
