INSTAGRAM keeps disconnecting from SQUARESPACE

Hi,

My Instagram feed is not showing up at all. It used to work fine and now it doesn't.

My IG account is linked and 'pull enabled' I have also reset the data as well.

When I click on the block it doesn't allow me to choose an account and has a yellow warning saying:

There is no valid account connected yet. Select an existing connected account from the dropdown, or select Add an Account to connect a new one.

I am unsure how to fix this issue or why it has happened so any assistance would be great as to why this is happening.

Hi there!

I'm having a weird issue where my INSTAGRAM FEED keeps disconnecting form my WEBSITE homepage! 

Anybody have any ideas as to why this might be happening or how to fix it?

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

😘

Hello

I integrated my instagram account 'inspire_ventures' on my website. It was showing the most updated posts but it's not anymore.

It shows the below but it's missing the last few posts. I've tested this on 2 laptops and on my cell phone so it's not a device refresh issue

Sadly, this is a widely reported issue. Please contact Squarespace Customer Care to add your voice to the requests for this to be resolved.

My client's Instagram wasn't updating on the site in the Instagram block, so we disconnected and reconnected the account. Now it doesn't load any photos and is entirely blank! We contacted Squarespace support, and they said it's a very complex issues they are looking into, but they aren't able to provide a timeline for when it will be resolved.

I've tried deleting the block and starting new ones, but no luck.

Are there any workarounds? Can I embed Instagram using some custom code or similar? Would appreciate your suggestions!!

Thank you!

I feel bad that I encouraged my client to migrate from Wordpress to Squarespace, but not being able to have the simple functionality of an Instagram is not looking good!

This happened to me too, now the block is entirely empty. It's such a disappointment. 

same problem here – feed not updating, resetting data did not do the trick, reauthenticated/reconnected account, now the entire block is blank (see attached screenshot, block will display blank in live mode) with no way to reintegrate the instagram feed – tried deleting and reconnecting the account plus deleting and re-adding the block (both under classic editor and fluid engine) multiple times, to no avail.

acknowledged by squarespace's support team as a bug plus the usual our engineering team is looking into it and we can't provide a timeframe for a solution info i can recite by heart by now. i know they will  – eventually, whenever that may be – but i agree with @BajanCode that this is incredibly frustrating when you've told clients that squarespace just works and they opted for this paid solution over a wordpress site and now a basic thing like the instagram block (which is a central part of their website – and now gone) does not. this is not the only current bug that i am waiting for to get fixed, but that's another story.

does anyone have an idea for a temporary fix to get the feed back on track – maybe @paul2009? thanks in advance.

update: i can now confirm (via another squarespace site for a client) that simply resetting the data (without reauthentification) can also irreversibly break the instagram feed (going from out of sync to permanently displaying no content at all).

Same issue here.

Wasn't updating. Deleted and readded and now no images at all.

Thankfully there's only 2.35 billion users on Instagram so it won't concern my client too much. 😉 

Same issue here - thought it was due to a recent IG password change but now it is just blank 

Has there been any update on how to fix this issue? I am also not able to get my Instagram feed to refresh. 

I need help with this same issue. Unsure how to fix. I've even visited the Connecting To IG forum following the directions, but no luck.

Yes, wondering the same thing. I do not want to disconnect because of all the issues posted here, but my feed has not been updated in a year.

Hi all! Running through the troubleshooting steps in the Instagram block guide typically resolves a lot of common connection issues:

Instagram block troubleshooting

Disconnecting and reconnecting the account is often particularly helpful. Just make sure to re-select your Instagram account in the Instagram block afterward, or replace the Instagram block altogether.

If that doesn't work, you may want to reach out to Customer Support since it could be a bug.

new site with Instagram block will not update. 

I tried all the troubleshooting solutions, and it is still not updating.  Does anyone have a workaround or update?
