    Hello all!

    I had successfully embedded Instagram videos onto my Enfold theme, however, I am updating my website and adding new videos and it doesn’t seem to be working.

    I am using the Code Block feature and copy and pasting the embedded script I would get from the Instagram video. It just appears blank and the code block I would create would vanish off the editor.

    Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    Hi!

    Does the videos you are using have the option to be embeded into the web site, or they are locked with copyrights issue?

    Hello!

    No, they are all my videos from my own Instagram. What is strange is that the other videos I embedded work (from months ago), however, when I try embedding the newer videos, it doesn’t seem to work.

    Could it be something on Instagram’s side oppose to WordPress?

    Hi,

    Please deactivate all plugins one by one to check which one is causing this issue and let us know if this solves the problem.
    In addition to that, please let us know if we are allowed to deactivate one or more of your plugins as well for testing purposes :)

    Best regards,
    Yigit

    Hello Yigit!

    Yes, you are allowed to deactivate the plugings to test :) Thank you!

    //edit

    I even tried to copy and paste OVER the old embedded videos and once I save it, it doesn’t actually replace the old embedded videos. Very weird!

    Been doing more testing and it seems like only the older Instagram videos seem to be embedding. The newer videos that I seem to be using are not working.

    The only difference I see in the script are these lines:

    OLD EMBED:
    <blockquote class=”instagram-media” data-instgrm-version=”4″

    NEW EMBED:
    <blockquote class=”instagram-media” data-instgrm-version=”7″

    Not sure if that helps but this is getting pretty frustrating!

    Thank you!

    Are there any alternatives I could use for the time being? I would like this page to be done but the embedding Instagram videos is holding it back. I did however managed to embed the newer videos but could not remove the captions that came with it.

    Hi,

    As I understand you like to remove the footer info in the embedded videos correct?

    Please try adding this at the very end of your themes / child themes functions.php file:

    // iFrame CSS
function iFrameCSS(){
?>
<script>
    jQuery(document).ready(function() {     	
     	jQuery('Iframe').contents().find('.EmbedFooter').css({
   			display:none;
		});
	}); 
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'iFrameCSS');

    Best regards,
    Vinay

    Hello Vinay,

    I added that line and there is still the caption. I installed a new plugin called “Simple Instagram Embed” and requires me just to paste the URL of the Instagram link and it does display the video now!

    However, it does not give me an option to remove the caption and makes the page very messy. Any suggestions on how to correct this?

    * I left the video up, refresh the website and you will see it under “Maintenance & Recovery”.

    // EDIT

    Seems like I am able to “HIDE CAPTION” with the new plugin I downloaded called Simple Instagram Embed. According to the readme.txt, it says I can do it in the settings of the plugin. But when I click on “Installed Plugings” to look for settings for the plugin, it’s not there. This is frustrating :(

    Hi,

    We would love to help you with this however it would be best to know what the plugin author has to say about this as they know their plugin best.

    Best regards,

    Hello Vinay,

    I actually figured it out! I thought that the “settings” page was under Installed Plugings, but turns out it’s actually under the “settings” page for WordPress itself. Everything seems to be working now – thank you to everybody that had helped!!
