Questions the author answers

How do I create a new Instagram feed?

Creating an Instagram feed is easy:

1. Go to Instagram Widget → Connect in your WordPress dashboard

2. Connect your Instagram Business or Creator account

3. Go to Instagram Widget → Feeds and click “Add New”

4. Customize your feed settings and save

5. Copy the shortcode or use the Gutenberg block to embed your feed

What type of Instagram account do I need?

Due to Instagram API requirements, you need an Instagram Business or Creator account to connect. Personal Instagram accounts are no longer supported by Instagram’s API. Converting to a Business or Creator account is free and takes just a few minutes in the Instagram app.

How do I display my Instagram feed in Elementor?

You can display your Instagram feed in Elementor in two ways:

1. Use the dedicated WPZOOM Instagram Elementor widget

2. Use a Shortcode widget and paste your feed’s shortcode

Can I display multiple Instagram accounts?

Yes! With the PRO version, you can connect multiple Instagram accounts and display feeds from different accounts anywhere on your site. You can also combine posts from multiple accounts into a single unified feed – perfect for brands with multiple Instagram profiles.

How can I improve my page load speed with Instagram feeds?

Enable the AJAX Initial Load option in your feed settings. This loads the Instagram feed content asynchronously after your page renders, dramatically improving initial page load time. Visitors will see an elegant skeleton placeholder with a shimmer animation while the feed loads in the background.

What are Instagram Insights and how do I access them?

Instagram Insights is a PRO feature that lets you track your Instagram performance directly from WordPress. You can monitor follower growth, reach, impressions, engagement, and individual post performance with interactive charts. To use Insights, you need a Business or Creator account connected via Facebook.

Latest changelog entry

2.4.0

  • New: Instagram Stories are now available in the free version. Turn on “Display Instagram Stories” in the feed’s profile settings to show a stories ring on the profile image (off by default)
  • New: “Store cached images as WebP” option (Settings → Global) – feed image sizes downloaded from Instagram are saved as WebP, typically 30-45% smaller. Off by default; only affects images cached by the plugin
  • New: “Regenerate Cached Images” button to convert already-cached images after changing the option
