Version: 1.0.2

Displays latest Instagram images in a slideshow of configurable size.

  • Description
  • FAQ
  • Changelog
  • Installation


This plugin displays your latest Instagram images in a slideshow widget. It's intentionally pretty bare-bones as most other plugins out the seem to offer dozens of bells and whistles. You can specify the following parameters:

  • Width
  • Height
  • Amount of images
  • Display of "Like" numbers

Can you add a "Like" function

Unfortunately, the Instagram API does not allow that. You can just output the number of "hearts" or you could "heart" your own pictures. To be able to get a visitor to "heart" a picture right in the widget, the visitor would need to allow your website read/write access to their account. It's highly unlikely a visitor would do that – just to "heart" an image.

Trouble generating images

The plugin needs write access to its own folder (/wp-content/plugins/simple-instagram-slideshow). Please check that it does.
