Usage Analysis

Hi Yasir,

This is a really nice class.

One point that is missing from your notes is the distinction between first registering an application and then clicking on the manage clients link to then add a client to be able to enter redirect URI information to then obtain the needed client ID and client secret pass.

Thanks again for the class.

Best Regards

Darren Conyard

Thanks Darren i will update the docs.

I have jsut over viewed the class and formatted to work with Wordpress Options. I use user_meta to store data per user. This should be interesting once it is done will share if I have any problems with the class. Looks very promising and one of the cleaner PHP implementations I have run across. Excellent!

Connect with me via Twitter and Google+ would love to keep up with you. All my profiles can be found at geilt.com

Hello Yasir,

Firstly - Great script and thanks for GNU GPL.
All in one and works good.

Maybe i missed some lines of code, but I noticed, there is a lack of "log out" of the Instagram API (Auth) realization.
If i go to "https://instagram.com/accounts/logout/" and return back to index.php the script still continue to be logged in.

I've heard logging out can be done via iframe but not sure.

Can it (logging out) be done via your class or script?

Thanks.

Hi Alexander thanks for the appreciation. It will really be a pleasure for me if this class can help you in any way.

Hi Adelmaer,

I looked into log out issue and found that access token still remains valid even when you log out from Instagram account. May be Instagram server should invalidate access token after user logs out from the account but right now token still remain valid.

As this class uses session to store access token you can handle log out at you end by creating a log out script and unset the access token in the session variable.

Hope this helps.

Hello Yasir,

Firstly, Thank you for your great API. I've tried to unset all sessions like unset($_SESSION['AccessToken']); as you suggested. But all sessions are still appeared again when redirect to index.php. Don't really know how to logout.

Thanks.

Hi Thomas,

When you unset session variable then redirect to index.php this check in code index.php from line 22 to 25 works

if (!isset($_SESSION['AccessToken'])) {
header('Location: redirect.php?op=getauth');
die();
}

when this code executes it again redirects to instagram server and gets access token and then sets session variable again and then redirects to index.php with all session variable set.

So you have to change code from line 22 to 25 as per your requirement.

Hello Yasir,

That's right. I forgot about this.

Thank you very much for your help. Hope you will continue to improve this great API.
