Instagram widget gives me an error 429 (= Too Many Requests). I tried with a different account, same result. What to do?
Hey mirozake,
Can you give us temporary admin access to your website in the private content box below, so that we can have a closer look?
Best regards,

Hello,
I have the same issue on my website. Login details below.
Hi brokomnet,
Instagram API does not work properly on some hostings and so we made integration with the Smash Baloon plugin. Please install and cofigure the plugin.
Best regards,

I have this same problem. I have installed that smash balloon plugin but not sure what to do next. Please help.
Hi,
Thank you for the update.
There is a dedicated element for the Smash Balloon plugin in the Advance Layout Builder, which is called “Instagram Feed”. You could use that element to display images or posts from your Instagram account, but you have to configure the Smash Balloon plugin first, connect it to your Instagram account and provide an API key.

This Error is still present. Do you think about fixing your instagram widget or implement a new version/alternative?
Hi @lentzotto,
This issue occurs on some shared hostings. To avoid that, we would need to create a way more advanced widget where you’d be able to connect to your Instagram account. Instead, we implemented the existing Smash Balloon plugin. Please consider using it instead.
Cheers!
