Version 0.3.6

Bugfix update

Fixed a crash that could occur when there was no post to handle but also no error message (#24)

Version 0.3.5

New in this release

Added option credits_format to settings.json. This is a format string which gets used from now on for the credits in comments and captions. It features three parameters:

• %subreddit%, which gets replaced by the subreddit's name a post is mirrored from
• %user%, which gets replaced by the username of the user who posted the post on Reddit
• %url%, which gets replaced by a shortlink (https://redd.it/postid) to the mirrored post

Manual configuration updates

You need to add the credits_format setting (described above) to your settings.json file, under the instagram section, in order for the bot to work. See settings.template.json for an example.
