Activate the Instagram feed

How to activate your Instagram feed.

Note: The Instagram class was replaced with Smash Balloon Social Photo Feed plugin. This change was necessary due to Instagram constant API changes that resulted in a ban over the images that were not pulled through it’s API. Keeping this in mind we have chosen to integrate the best Instagram plugin on the market to do that.

  1. First install and activate the Smash Balloon Social Photo Feed plugin. Go to Appearance >> Install plugins and install it from there.
  2. After the installation, go to Instagram Feed and just click on Connect an Instagram account. Follow the instructions and that’s it.

– If you have imported the demo content , then the Instagram feed from the Homepage will be autopopulated with your feed.

– If you choose to add the feed somewhere else, just add the Instagram widget from Visual Composer anywhere on a page or post, no other adjustments need to be made

– If you need to have more control over the settings of the plugin, you can add their own shortcode anywhere on any page/post. The plugin documentation is available here: https://smashballoon.com/instagram-feed/docs/
