Which Squarespace plans support adding the Instagram Feed?

Is the plugin compatible with Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1?

Yes, Elfsight works with all Squarespace versions, including classic 7.0 and the latest 7.1 with Fluid Engine. It integrates smoothly with any Squarespace template.

Do I need an Instagram Business account or a personal profile?

You can use a public personal Instagram account without logging in. If your profile is private or restricted, switch to a Business or Creator account to connect it properly on your Squarespace website.

Will the Instagram plugin work with a private account?

The plugin offers Show and Hide Posts filters in the Sources settings, allowing you to include or exclude posts based on specific words, hashtags, or links in captions.

How often does the Instagram Feed update with new posts?
