Hi! Due to the fact that the bot doesn't seem to download the posts in an order, I can't download my large saved collection of instagram posts without manually finding each and every post that it downloaded and unsaving it before calling the /saved command again.

Proposed solutions:

1. an option to unsave posts after they are downloaded.
2. an option to save a range of posts in whatever order they are seen. (i.e. /saved 400-800)
3. an option to try to save all of the posts by reestablishing the connection after 400. (i.e. /saved all)

Hi

You have provided an wonderful bot for personal use and this is very useful.

I am just want to check or requesting is there any possible of downloading only certain number of posts or top n number of posts like how we do use /feed n(number of latest updates).

Could you please add this if there is a possibility .

like

/posts samantha 10 .

I know this is a requirement and not an issue but not sure how to add an request

The bot sends compressed images.
There may be 2 reason :-

1. the images that are downloaded by bot from telegram are in low quality
2. the bot may be downloading high quality images but are compressed by telegram ( Telegram compresses files only if bot sends 'file as photo.) This can be overcome by setting 'file as document'.

Hope you understand it and solve this.

Always getting checkpoint required error

Hey, I just deployed this bot and it's working great. I just wanted to ask that, is there any way that other people can use this bot?
For example, my friends wanted to use my deployed bot. So can I add more sudo user? Thank you.

IT'S WHAT HEROKU SAYS :
Item could not be created:
We couldn't deploy your app because the source code violates the Salesforce Acceptable Use and External-Facing Services Policy.
if you can show us another way like deploying on replit or railway it would be great
THANKS 💗

Add /clean cmd to clean download directory to avoid same images, more stuff get uploaded again.

hi.
i create bot and it works at first use to download all pix of an account and after it my instagram account disabled!

Bot works fine before but after fill INSTA_SESSIONFILE_ID in config.py can't run main.py.
Error -

(INSTA_SESSIONFILE_ID is correct)
Looking forward to a solution.
Thank you...

Heroku is blocked to create a bot in thair site. Now we can't deploy bot om heroku

good day, it is possible that the download of the images, videos, etc can be downloaded in order, because I see that the download does not respect the order of the publication ((by time and date)) but rather the type of file, thanks for this wonderful plugin

I am launching the robot in Telegram https://telegram.dog/subinps_bot

I tried more than 10 times and i kept getting the error again and again. any ways to fix?
