 * Hello
 * I have wordpress 4.9.15. I have installed and configured the plugin. I have this
   message in the oEmbed plugin option after connecting with Facebook’s page:
 * You can use the Instagram Feed plugin to power your Instagram oEmbeds, both old
   and new.
    The Instagram Feed plugin is now powering your Instagram oEmbeds.
 * But it doesn’t work. The Instagram oEmbeds are not working.
 * Is there anything I should do in order to make it working apart from connecting
   the plugin with Instagram and Facebook?
 * Thank you in advance

 * Thank you Sorry I thought it was working but it isn’t
 * If I paste just an Instagram url it doesn’t work
 * Should I paste all the Instagram embed code with its scripts etc? If I do it 
   it works but it’s not what I was looking for.
 * Thank you in advance

 * Hey [@johndbb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johndbb/),
 * You should just need to paste the Instagram link directly in a text box in the
   WordPress editor on your site. To further be able to investigate the issue for
   you we will require the System Info from your plugin settings which includes 
   more sensitive information, so we ask that you send us a support request on our
   website [here](https://smashballoon.com/instagram-feed/support/), where we will
   be happy to further assist you.

 * In my case, even posting the whole instagram embed code does not help (it shows
   an empty box with only text and no image). I separately posted a topic about 
   this in the forum.
