I recently created a website with PHP to Check Out Anyone's Instagram Profile Picture at Full Size!. Yesterday my service stopped to work and it seems as if Instagram is blocking my web servers IP-address. I then started to try to fix the issue but unfortunately, I could not reproduce the error locally. I put my code up on another server and tried to check if the error is because I made a mistake. But as the service works on my another web server , I expect Instagram to block my original web servers IP-address.
How can I fix this or reproduce the error? Thanks!
If your code works with different IP addresses then you've almost certainly been blocked by Instagram.
