Hi there,

will there be an update for the new Instagram Graph API platform or is there a workaround for getting Instagram to work.

Luckily, Instagram decided to postpone their API Changes to June 29, 2020. https://www.instagram.com/developer/

It would be great to see an update to the Documentation of PB_SOCIAL! I dont even know if the “Stock” Instagram Adapter is working anymore. Is there an Update on the PHP Dependency talking to the Instagram API?

As far as I know, it would be enough to add a Instagram App (Basic Display) to your Facebook App, then add the Instagram Account you want to display as a “Instagram Test Account” in your Apps “Role” Settings.

After that, you can generate a “User Token” (just as you would have done it at the moment) that will be displayed, after you authenticated yourself with your Instagram Account in the Facebook App-Dashboard.

Maybe a Screencast would help to show how its done. This could be done to any of the adapters. Some of them could just be exported as a GIF, to add it to the README.me

Let me know your thoughts.

Thank you for your reply, I’ve tried every tutorial that I’ve found to get all the Id’s and Token’s which I need for the Extension. I always get an error:

pb_social - flexform 8697 on page 864 tab instagram: 1558515784 initial load for feed failed. warning: {"code":400,"error_type":"OAuthAccessTokenException","error_message":"The access_token provided is invalid."}

Do you know what’s wrong? Any Access-Token that I’ve generated is vaild at https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/accesstoken/

Great Extension. We needed the new instagram api in our project. So we switched to another lib for instagram. Would be great if we could get the changes in pb_social. https://github.com/CodeContent/pb_social/pull/1/commits/01c3e1c5b53d03cb79e9598992d968bd3513da6d

We clone the extension in github: https://github.com/CodeContent/pb_social

I have also a patch file for master if it helps. What else did you need?
