Create a backup transient? #119

Closed lukestateson closed 4 years ago

lukestateson commented 5 years ago

Currently when plugin successfully scrapes Instagram it creates the transient for HOUR_IN_SECONDS * 3 - 3 hours.

We need another "backup" transient every successful scrape set for at least 1 month (or even 1 year).

In case there will be an Instagram outage / server IP ban or any other issue plugin should load from the backup transient instead of showing the error.

See closed issue #122 (As well closed issues #121 #120 #118) - The plugin is no longer maintained

scottsweb commented 4 years ago

This project is being archived (background in #118). Instagram filed a trademark complaint which saw the plugin removed from WordPress.org and then proceeded to block it from accessing instagram.com. All issues are being closed and it will soon be in a read only state.
