If you depend on getting visitors to your site via the link in your bio on Instagram
like I do, you should be warned before using this plugin that it does NOT work. 
For instance, if someone visits your website via the link in your Instagram profile,
and they come upon a page or blog post where you’ve utilized any of the Capture &
Convert widgets for “follow to unlock” or “sign up with email to unlock”, when the
visitor clicks on the widget to either follow you or sign up for your newsletter
to unlock the content, once they are redirected back to your website, the content
will NOT be unlocked and your visitor will be stuck with seeing the same widget 
still asking for them to follow you or sign up to unlock content. I signed up for
the Premium plan and regardless, this issue still occurred. I spoke to one member
of their team about it and they offered to get back to me the following week to 
try coming up with a solution but they never did. The plugin is a GREAT idea and
I really wish it had worked. It was also very buggy whenever you tried designing
your widget.

I can confirm it works (with Gutenberg!), and looks very nice. Couldn’t get it to
show a Facebook “like to unlock”. Wondering if that’s a premium-only feature. I 
found a visual glitch, plus an idea on how to improve your UI. Who is best to email
about that? Cheers.
