Error Message when trying to Publish to Instagram

When I tried to Publish an image to Instagram I got the error message - ?:0: attempt to index field ‘media’ (a nil value) (1)  It did work fine previously

I am on a Mac (10.13.6) and have the latest version of Lightroom Classic.

I have removed the Plug in and tried to reinstall it. I have registered the LR/Instagram plug in with Capture Monkey, the Plug In Manager shows that it has been activated. However, now when I tried the set up Instagram on the Publishing Manager and login - I get this error message -     ?:0: attempt to index field ‘logged_in_user’ (a nil value) (1)

Any help would be appreciated

    This link just sends me back to Forums, can you be more specific?

    Regards


    I would strongly urge you to contact the author of the plugin. He/she should be able to offer much more specific help.

    Also, there are other similar posts which suggest that installing the plugin's latest version is a solution.

    Hi Photo

    Sorry that the Lightroom/Instagram plugin is not working as you're getting an error message while publishing the images.

    Please unauthorized the plugin from the publish service menu and then reauthorize it again. Also, refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned in this article Errors using Publish Services in Lightroom and let us know if that helps.

    Thanks,

    Mohit

    Well, you need to right click/Ctrl+click on Lr/Instagram plugin to get the "Edit Settings" option. Also, it looks like the Lr/Instagram plugin isn't setup yet as its still giving you the Set Up option.

    Please setup the plugin first.

    Regards,
