Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Jordan Miller Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Hey guys, I can't seem to get Instagram embeds to work any more. I'm on 4.5.4. BTW, I tried on this forum as well and I get the same error. Related: sobrenome 1
Rhett Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 You can run the support tool and apply the latest patch to remove this error on facebook/instagram embeds. Due to some large changes on their end, facebook/instagram embed no longer work at this time. The patch will prevent any errors and post the link as a normal link for now. We hope to revisit this in feature with facebook/Instagram in a future version. sobrenome 1

My site relies big time on Instagram embeds. 🙏 Thanks. sobrenome 1

Jordan Miller Posted November 1, 2020 Author Posted November 1, 2020 Struggle bus this week with no Instagram in my community 😩
Jordan Miller Posted November 11, 2020 Author Posted November 11, 2020 Anyone have any updates on this by chance? :]
WP V0RT3X Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 If you really can't live without Instagram embeds, you could create a simple editor button as a temporary solution.

WP V0RT3X Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 Go to Instagram and copy the embed code of any post. In the code you will find the URL of the post too, for example https://www.instagram.com/p/CHgGzVBlhip/ Change that to https://www.instagram.com/p/{option}/ (multiple times). Edit other parts you don't want/need (like title, whatever). The go to Editor -> Toolbars -> Add Button. Use option and paste your edited HTML code. When you want to insert a post from Instagram, klick the new button and put the ID in the popup, in this case CHgGzVBlhip. The result looks like this ... That's how our forefathers did it before automatic embedding Like said this is only a temporary solution, but works just fine. Ramsesx and SC36DC 1 1

I'm not sure my users will do this, but it'll be useful for me an as admin at least. Thank you!

Kjell Iver Johansen Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 I am too waiting for this to work - automatic embed is important for some users. I have some top posters that use Instagram and posts images from that community, and it is very important these days. SC36DC and crmarks 2

WP V0RT3X Posted November 24, 2020 Posted November 24, 2020 Every Instagram post comes with an embed code. The code contains the link to the post about 2 or 3 times (I change all of them at once with the editor). You have to replace the ID at the end of the link with {option}.

Reply here with the embed code that you used, with the changes you made in the HTML field of Custom Button. Then somebody might be able to look at it and see what you need to change to get it working properly.
