Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Instaflax Social Feed lets you show your Instagram content on any WordPress page using the official Instagram Graph API. Connect your account securely via OAuth, design your feed with a live Feed Customizer, and embed it anywhere with a simple shortcode.

Key Features

  • Instagram OAuth — connect your profile securely from the plugin dashboard
  • Multiple feeds — create and manage separate feeds for different pages
  • Feed Customizer — Grid and Carousel layouts with live preview
  • Responsive — separate column and post counts for desktop, tablet, and mobile
  • Profile header — profile name and bio options
  • Click actions — open Instagram link or disable click
  • Smart caching — reduce API calls with configurable cache duration
  • Automatic token refresh — background refresh keeps your feed running
  • Encrypted token storage — access tokens are AES-256 encrypted in the database
  • Connect requirements — Getting Started shows Professional Instagram account requirements before OAuth
  • Website confirmation — after Instagram authorization, confirm your site domain before the account is saved

Shortcodes

Only [instaflax_feed] is the recommended shortcode. Prefixed legacy aliases [instaflax_insta_feed] and [instaflax_inf_instagram_feed] are available for sites migrating from older shortcodes.

Display a saved feed:

[instaflax_feed id="1"]

Replace 1 with your feed ID shown in the All Feeds list.

Prefixed legacy shortcodes:

[instaflax_insta_feed id="1"]

Attribute override shortcode:

[instaflax_feed id="1" posts="6" columns="3" caption="true" layout="grid"]

[instaflax_inf_instagram_feed] is a prefixed legacy alias for backward compatibility.

Requirements

  • Instagram Professional account (Business or Creator); personal accounts are not supported
  • Outbound HTTPS access from your WordPress site to Instagram and the Instaflax OAuth proxy (one.mahihub.in)
  • After install, visit Settings → Permalinks once and click Save so /instagram-proxy-callback/ works on your site
  • For typical WordPress.org installs, you do not need your own Meta developer app or to register your site URL in Meta — Connect uses the Instaflax hosted OAuth proxy
  • Optional (advanced / self-hosted Meta app): set your Instagram App ID in includes/instaflax-instagram-oauth-config.php or define( 'INSTAFLAX_INSTAGRAM_APP_ID', 'YOUR_ID' ); in wp-config.php, and add https://yoursite.com/instagram-proxy-callback/ to your Meta app Valid OAuth Redirect URIs
