Instagram API Announcement - how it will impact on instafeed? #528
Comments
A bit concerned as well 😟 |
@PrestaShark Are you sure this is real and not some spam email? What's the reply-to address? |
@sidan5 I think it's pretty serious. |
@richjdsmith Saw it only after log out... That's a bad move :( |
I hope this is not too off topic, but is using this script to simply show an instagram feed on a html website and I can't get it to work. Is this dead with this new API? Well, actually even worse, I can't even get past registering a new client with Instagram because the re-captcha fails and some imaginary data that is not completely filled in. And yeah, no issues on using this script have been resolved for ages. Dead fish in the water? |
@alFrame Today I had all of those problems. First I fixed by registering my app in a incognito window (with Chrome, details here) and now I can't get the instafeed to work, seems like the API has changed something that made this plugin to break. |
@Dannymx Thanks for chiming in. I tried to register in incognito mode in Chrome on Windows. And tried it in any other browser on Windows and Mac (not Chrome on Mac though). To no avail. That form is broken. And you say the plugin is broken too now? Is there any intention of the team behind this plugin to fix it (hope hope)? How on earth can we implement a specific users Instagram feed on a manually coded website then? It's a breeze using WordPress, but I kinda stepped away from WordPress for simple websites. The maintenance with updates and everything became a hassle... Anyone good some good advice on this? |
@alFrame, I read somewhere that someone managed to register it via Firefox on Windows. I've written here all I know about current situation https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46635195/how-to-access-instagram-feed-of-any-user-with-new-graph-api |
@markfinst thanks! It Worked in a FireFox private window... Thought I tried that, but apparently not. So much about sing and dance... sigh... |
I thought I post here again that after being able to register a client with Instagram and figuring out how to get my userId (RTFM) I am actually able to get the script to work. Seems that the new API does not have that much implication on the functionality of instafeed.js. That said, I would like to thank everybody who contributed to this script and this thread! |
Still on the registering issue @alFrame, were you able to get the script running simply using a |
This is the code I got it running with:
Hope this helps. |
@alFrame How did you get the access token? I wasn't allowed to register the app w/ Instagram |
I got it through in FireFox on windows in a private window... Launched FireFox private window with no other instance open. |
You can attach the query parameter
I have no clue why this works, but it works. 😂 |
Hi all, I can't seem to figure out how to get the client ID for my client or token. Per all the examples I have seen they are using their own Instagram ID. Can someone tell me how to obtain this? Do I have to have the client request it and then send it to me? I'm trying to put an Instagram feed carousel on the homepage of their website. |
@dec23rd1986 Register your application at https://www.instagram.com/developer to get your client ID then follow all the instructions at https://www.instagram.com/developer/authentication/ to get your access token. It involves posting to https://api.instagram.com/oauth/authorize/?client_id=CLIENT-ID&redirect_uri=REDIRECT-URI&response_type=code with your info where it's all caps, and then after this in terminal, making a request as follows (again with your info where the caps are. The code is what you get a the end of the URL once you follow the step above) : Follow the instructions at https://www.instagram.com/developer/authentication/ and you'll get there. |
My summary of the steps to do (extracted from this link):
