Instagram feed

29 Aug 2019, 15:42

I have an idea for my index page.

I'd like to put some custom coding in the index page to have an Instagram feed with the latest image showing showing in a carousal style below the gallery table but within the gray frame. Any direction to accomplish this would be super helpful.

Here's my site

Wish I could say that would be an easy task, but sounds like a huge job. First of all, you would have to work with the Instagram API, and then you would need a carousel script. Nothing I can just whip up in a forum post unfortunately ...

We do plan to include an Instagram plugin into X3, which would allow you to load your Instagram feed as a gallery grid into any page. It won't by default include a carousel-type gallery, but I might consider that as an extended option.

For now, there are instagram EMBED methods made available from Instagram, but they are quite limited.
