Anyone up on the status of plugins like https://github.com/artifex404/grav-plugin-instagram with the changes to the Instagram API?
Do they still work?
Hard to say. Did you try asking the author?
Instagram now requires you to have an access_token.
Login in to Instragram Developer page and create a new client. Fill in the info.
Use this OceanWP to obtain your access_token.
You can view their page on how to obtain an Instagram access token as well.
Appreciate the reply. @duceduc. I have had a quick look through the documentation and created a test client. The URL provided by the instead API generates a feed, though the Grav test site (timeout?) generates the following error
Server Error
Sorry, something went terribly wrong!
0 - An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Error while trying to download (code: 400): https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/recent/?access_token=************&count=8 ").
For further details please review your logs/ folder, or enable displaying of errors in your system configuration.'
Appreciate any suggestions and I will try to dig deeper…
[I have removed the instagram access token and preached with ‘************’]
Code: 4 may possible be “The access_token provided is invalid.”
With the url you provided, input your access token and access it via the browser. Do you still get an error?
Appreciate the reply @duceduc. I can access the Instagram data directly via the URL generated (above with API key) — which has me a little stumped.
Only thing I can think of for now is that I am doing testing locally (using MAMP), and the domain for the API key is different (the site is not on a remote server/web accessible domain I registered to create the access token). I have not had a chance to test the site yet on a remote server…
Have now tested on a web accessible domain (set the same as the ‘client’ website URL in the Instagram API settings).
Unfortunately still the same error
0 - An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Error while trying to download (code: 400)...
Access the URL via a browser window (with the access token) provides the necessary Instagram feed.
Being relatively new to Grav (and twig), I ant currently unable to ascertain the basis for the error.
Not sure what is the cause. Syntax error in the twig file ?
I have tried with a (modular) twig file based on a a skeleton, and one with all other content removed.
It appears the module might not work with the recent (December 2018) Instagram API changes…
I am using the woo skeleton and the ceevee theme and it works for me. Both are modular as well.
I’ll download and compare to see if I can identify the issue. Can you provide a link to your site so I can take a look? Thanks.
Instagram plugin working for modular sites. Scroll 3/4 down.
I have texted this with a clean installs of the boxify and woo skeletons. Same output (error).
I add
{{ instagram_feed() }}
For both, I added templates/modular/screenshots.html.twig
For those who may come here having issues, here is the output from the log file (access token/identifying data removed)

It’s past my current knowledge to identity the issue.
I’ll look into the Social Feed plugin and see if that might do what I am seeking…
Edit. Similar error with the social feed plugin. I’ll try creating a new API client/access token
For anyone who comes across this later, I had the same outcome with a clean install of Grav+admin 1.5.8.
Vanilla except for the instagram plugin
