Connect an account and display its media

Social Media Feed Gallery Premium uses an Instagram access token to fetch public photos, Reels, and videos for a responsive gallery on your WordPress site. Private account posts cannot be fetched. Video thumbnails show a play icon, and users can view images in a lightbox or follow links to the original Instagram posts.

The plugin requests media through the Instagram Graph API from Meta Platforms, Inc. Each time a gallery shortcode loads, a server-side request sends the access token, media IDs, and query parameters for the requested picture or video fields and limits. Tokens can expire and may need periodic renewal if the feed stops loading.

Set the gallery layout and appearance

Premium includes Grid, Masonry, Mosaic, Carousel, and Post layouts. Choose among the five templates, then set one to six columns and adjust the spacing between images. A no-spacing option is also available. Captions can appear over images on hover.

Custom link settings control how media links work. You can also adjust lightbox colors and navigation controls or use the custom CSS field for further styling.

Give visitors more to view

• Display more than 200 images in a gallery and use album support to organize available content.
• Show like counts, comment counts, and visitor profile information.
• Add a Load More button for pagination and social sharing icons.

Responsive galleries can be placed on pages, posts, and widgets with a shortcode generated in the add-on. The layouts and browsing controls suit uses such as portfolios, campaign pages, brand feeds, and editorial sections.

Set up and publish a gallery

Install and activate Social Media Feed Gallery Premium in WordPress, then generate an Instagram access token through Facebook’s developer portal. Enter the token in the plugin settings and pick the layout and display preferences. Configure engagement details, pagination, sharing, and styling as needed. Use the shortcode generator, then add the shortcode to a page, post, or widget. If the feed stops loading, check whether the token is valid and renew it if it has expired.
