You’re my hero! Works like a charm! Thanks so much.
It is really just those two lines that have to be changed. And when copy-pasting, I had to make sure that the ” sign was properly displayed.

In reply to Big. Nice find! I haven't been able to spend the time to find the updated selector; looks like you found it. I'll give this a try a little later and update my code if I find it to work. In the meantime your comment is live on the page so others can find it.

Hi, thanks for your script!

I inserted the following code from https://dev.to/danijelajs/javascript-instagram-bot-3nmk into your script to identify the “like” option in the current version of Insta:

var likeElement = document.querySelector(‘article > div.eo2As > section.ltpMr.Slqrh > span.fr66n > button’);

As for the “Like status”, I used the following: likeElement.innerHTML.match(“#ed4956”) == null

That worked for me!

Comment on How I Implemented Comments on a Static Site by davidak

That’s an elegant solution, but also very simple and limited. You can’t have features like editing comments after they are sent, up/down voting, reply/threads, e-mail notification about replys…

But i like that the comments are part of the page source and HTML, so they are archived together with the content. So our culture is not lost 10 years from now. (I actually blogged 10 years ago and most of the blogs from then are lost)

Do you have ideas to extend this MVP to add all the features Commento has but keep the simple design, so the data is part of the website? It’s crazy to host PostgreSQL just to get 100 comments a year…

In reply to Jim. It looks like the LikeElement is no longer a function, so the script isn't working anymore. Returns "LikeElement is null" every time. An update would be amazing.

Has something on Instagram changed recently? Doesn’t seem like it works anymore?

Hi!

Instagram seems to have changed things up again, and I cant get the code to work. Any suggestions?

Sincerely, Christian.

In reply to Joel. How would I make this random as well?

In reply to Raphael. If you have already liked a particular post it will skip it.

In reply to Raphael. Yup, that's the idea.
