    Hi all,
    Just a message to share what I did.
    I tried to find out why I wasn’t able to display my images using different MMM-Instagram modules (I tried with @kapsolas ’ initial module and yo-less’ and jeffjoe’s forks).
    It took me a lot of time to understand it wasn’t compatible with MMM-ProfileSwitcher module (https://github.com/tosti007/MMM-ProfileSwitcher)

    If ever you have the same problem, here is a workaround (done from the last JeffJoe’s fork - https://github.com/jeffjoe/MMM-Instagram, but also works with @kapsolas’ one)
    So, in MMM-Instagram.js, you just have to comment the line :

    this.info.classes = 'bright medium';
    -->
    //this.info.classes = 'bright medium';
    

    Indeed, it is overwriting a variable that is also used in MMM-ProfileSwitcher. (See in GitHub ProfileSwitcher description, just before the section “Current Supported Languages”. I know it’s not exactly the same thing, but the idea is the same)
    I’m not going to create a new fork for this, so guys, I let you manage this.

    BTW, yo-less’ fork is still bugged… there is a tempimpage variable instead of temp image
    Thanks for the module

      Hi, I would like to get pictures from two APIs in same module. Is it possible?

        The current setup of the module does not allow for pulling from multiple locations (API)

          Okay, but is it possible? Anything you could implement? I would like to be able to get in family photos in chronological order. :)

            @zeular I suppose that this could be implemented. The module could be updated to make multiple requests to various sources.

            Given my current availability, this would not be something I can do in the near future.

              @kapsolas I understand, but if you had time over, I would be grateful.
              Thank’s anyway, for taking your time and reply.

                @zeular You are welcome!
                And to be clear, when you say pull from different API, you mean different services? Like Flickr, Instagram, etc?

                  @kapsolas No, I meant two different instagram accounts …

                    @kapsolas Forgive me if i’m wrong, (New Here) when you mean pulling images from your own feed, that means the images are loading from your own account correct? Anyway to pull from others users accounts? I know it states that in your Readme yet i’ve found no instructions on how that works. Basically I want it it load the “home feed” where other users posts you follow show up in. Any light in this area would be much appreciated! Thanks.

                      @Garrett Not sure if this is actually possible, but may be.
                      I would need to review the instragram API.
                      Currently, i was just interested in viewing my own photos when I wrote the module. it was more to meet my needs and then I shared it.

                      When I have some time, i’ll try to implement some of the requests folks have had.
