Instagram feeds in WordPress

Social Feed Gallery Premium displays Instagram posts and Reels in WordPress pages. Add a feed through a shortcode, the Block Editor, or the native Elementor block, then select a layout and adjust its appearance for the page.

Layouts and feed content

Gallery and carousel layouts present media in a grid or scrolling row. Premium also includes masonry and highlight layouts, multiple Instagram user accounts, and a load more button. You can include profile avatars, usernames, and custom descriptions, or use boxed mode with colors and borders.

Professional Instagram accounts support Stories, hashtag feeds, tagged media, and comments display. Hashtag feeds can track up to 30 unique hashtags in a 7-day period. Personal accounts can display basic user media and profile information.

Styling and feed behavior

Adjust icon colors, borders, masks, spacing, and responsive options for mobile and tablet. A customizable lightbox opens feed items in an expanded view. Like counts and comments can appear with feed items; comments display requires a professional account.

Automatic updates refresh displayed Instagram content. Caching helps limit API requests: user media is cached for 6 hours and Stories for 1 hour. You can clear the cache from the feed settings.

Account setup and placement

Add your credentials, choose an Instagram @id or hashtag, and choose Add New Account. Social Feed Gallery generates and saves the access token without requiring you to create an app. Then create and configure a feed, select its source and layout, and place it on a page or template using the Block Editor, a shortcode, or the Elementor block.
