TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

I had the same issue, but it is working now fine after I unindented line 140 and 141.

Seems like this is related to lines 127-141 of extractor.py.

If there are no comments on the post tags = comments[0].text is causing script to fail.

I updated the else statement to elif len(comments) == 1: and that allowed the script to run fully. I'm not sure if that would have broken anything...

I found what it generates the problem. If the post doesn`t have comments even from authors, I will get

TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

@juliavollmer can you please post your code?

Hi, i had the same issue and tried to fix but nothing works, someone can help?. I thinks is something wrong when the script try to "return" on line 142:

Line 142: return caption, location_url, location_name, location_id, lat, lng, img, tags, int(likes), int(len(comments) - 1), date, user_commented_list

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "crawl_profile.py", line 33, in
information, user_commented_list = extract_information(browser, username, limit_amount)
File "/home/administrador/instagram-profilecrawl/util/extractor.py", line 226, in extract_information
caption, location_url, location_name, location_id, lat, lng, img, tags, likes, comments, date, user_commented_list = extract_post_info(browser)

Looks like @alanwuha wrote this part of the code, maybe he will fix it soon :) If now I can look at it.
