Nice option to be able to embed a client’s Instagram feed. Too bad it stopped working with no warning, and no sign of support.

I wish we’d used a different plugin. It’s easy enough to install and configure, but when the Instagram posts get pulled in, the php code isn’t able to display apostrophes correctly.
