Instagram blocks allow you to display your most recent Instagram posts directly on your website, automatically syncing new content as you post it.

Setting Up Instagram Block

1. Add the block:

• Edit your page
• Click Add Block
• Select Instagram
• Click the pencil icon to open block editor

2. Link your account:

• Go to Account tab
• Select an existing account or add a new one
• Set number of posts (max 20)
• Configure design settings

3. Choose display format:

• Slideshow: Single post view
• Carousel: Scrolling posts
• Grid: Thumbnail layout
• Stacked: Full-width vertical display

Important Requirements:

• Must have a professional Instagram account (Business or Creator)
• Account should be public
• Compatible with regular posts only (no IGTV, Stories, Reels, or shared posts)

Troubleshooting Steps:

1. Reset Connection:

• Open Linked Accounts
• Click Instagram account
• Select Download Data
• Click Reset Data
• Save and refresh

2. Relink Account:

• Unlink current account
• Log out of Instagram
• Relink through Linked Accounts panel
• Select account in block settings
• Save changes

Alternative Solution: If you don't have a professional account, use the Embed block:

1. Find desired Instagram post
2. Click "..." and select Embed
3. Copy embed code
4. Paste into Embed block on your site

Remember: Instagram blocks won't display with active ad blockers, so disable them if experiencing issues.

For optimal performance:

• Keep account public
• Regularly check connection status
• Update account settings as needed
• Monitor post visibility

By following these guidelines, you'll maintain a dynamic Instagram feed on your website that automatically updates with your latest posts.
