Fetches your Instagram Business posts through the Facebook Graph API, refreshes the access token automatically, and exposes a PHP function for your theme. It does not output any markup itself.

Usage

$posts = sts_fetch_instagram_posts( 6 ); // up to 6 latest posts

Render the result in your theme as you like.

Setup

  1. Create a Facebook App and an Instagram Business account linked to a Facebook Page.
  2. Open Settings > Instagram API and enter the Instagram Business ID, an access token (with instagram_basic and instagram_manage_insights), and the Facebook App ID and App Secret.
  3. With the App ID and Secret set, a daily cron job refreshes the token before it expires.

Admin hints are in Hebrew.

Requirements

WordPress 5.0+, PHP 7.4+. WooCommerce is not needed.

Security note

The token and app secret are stored in the WordPress options table. Treat database access accordingly.
