Feed not loading with SyntaxError: JSON.parse

Resolved

(@marger)

Hi,

I’ve been using this plugin for 1.5 to 2 years. Today I found out the feed no longer loads, but the problem may have started occurring somewhere in the past few months.

I tried the tips in https://smashballoon.com/instagram-feed/support/faq/ and all I can turn up is a console error concerning the feed itself (with caching plugins disabled):

I’m not filtering any posts from the feed and just the default shortcode. Also I never changed any settings after it ran fine before. Can you find out how I can fix the feed?

Hey marger,

Sorry for the issue here! Could you try disabling Autoptomize to see if it makes a difference? Even if it doesn’t, can you leave it disabled and let me know so I can take another look?

Hi Craig,

thanks for your reply. Autoptimize is now disabled. For me it doesn’t make a difference, the output posted above was from my tests with autoptimize disabled.

pro-tip; you can disable Autoptimize on a per-request basis by adding ?ao_noptimize=1 to the URL.

hope this helps future debugging,

Hey again marger,

Thanks for doing this! After taking a closer look I’m seeing that there is extra html added to your footer widget area #3 that is causing a problem: https://snag.gy/bpyXm8.jpg

Try removing the following from footer widget #3 (you can replace it with a shortcode if you’d like to add a 2nd feed)

<div id="sb_instagram" class="sbi sbi_disable_mobile sbi_col_3 sbi_small" style="width:100%; padding-bottom: 14px; " data-id="1333862419" data-num="6" data-res="auto" data-cols="3" data-options="{"sortby": "none", "headercolor": "", "imagepadding": "7"}"><div id="sbi_load"><div class="sbi_follow_btn"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/how.wonderful.life.is/" style="" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i>Follow on Instagram</a></div></div></div>

Thanks,

Craig

Awesome, that did the trick! I wasn’t even aware of that extra HTML so this would’ve taken me ages to track down myself. Thanks so much Craig!

And thanks to Frank for that pro-tip on Autoptimize, it might come in handy in the future.
