Hi,
My instagram feed suddenly stopped and I cannot make it work again, getting isotope not initialized. Cannot call methods, i.e. $().isotope(“layout”) Any help would be very much appreciated!

The feed is in the bottom of the page.

Thank you,
Karls

Hello,

Instagram APIs have changed and restricted considerably. Consider using the updated js/plugins.min.js File with this one: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vconePqhxq48GsF1GvQ75GGzgBiqConM/view?usp=sharing .

  1. Follow steps 1 - 3 here: Facebook Basic Display API guide.

  2. Use the User Token Generator to create a starting access token.

Then add the following code in the HTML File just after the js/plugins.min.js JS File Linking:
[ch_pre]var scwInstagramToken = 'your-access-token';[/ch_pre]

This should work fine for now. But this is strictly experimental and we are thinking about removing the Instagram Widget from the Future versions of Canvas as the Instagram APIs are now heavily restricted.

Hope this Helps!

Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.
