Can You Have an Instagram Feed on Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:16 am

As one of the most popular social media platforms, it’s no surprise that people are looking for ways to integrate Instagram with their website. While there are some third-party options available, Squarespace does not currently offer a native integration with Instagram. However, there are a few workarounds that you can use to add your Instagram feed to your Squarespace website.

With over 1 billion monthly active users, Instagram is a powerful tool for businesses and individuals alike. And while Squarespace doesn’t offer a built-in integration with the platform, there are a few workarounds that allow you to add your Instagram feed to your Squarespace website.

One method is to use a third-party app or plugin like SnapWidget or InstaShow. These tools provide an easy way to display your Instagram feed on your website without having to code anything yourself.

PRO TIP: Please be advised that using an Instagram feed on Squarespace can result in decreased website performance and may cause your site to load slowly. We recommend only using an Instagram feed on Squarespace if you are confident in your website’s ability to handle the extra load.

Another option is to use the Embed Block in Squarespace. This allows you to embed any public post from Instagram onto your website by simply copying and pasting the URL into the block. Keep in mind that this method only works for public posts, so if you have a private account or use Instagram Stories, this won’t be an option for you.

If you’re comfortable working with code, you can also add your Instagram feed to your Squarespace website using the Embed Code Block. With this method, you’ll need to generate an access token from Instagram and then paste in some code into your site’s code injection area. This is a more advanced method and is not recommended for those who are not comfortable working with code.

Overall, while Squarespace doesn’t offer a built-in integration with Instagram, there are still a few ways that you can add your feed to your website. Whether you’re using a third-party app or plugin, or embedding public posts directly onto your site, adding your Instagram feed to Squarespace is relatively easy and can be done without any coding skills required.
