Featured request show post description

This might be easier to do than I thought…the description is generated in the image title meta…do you have any quick ways to echo that up your sleeve? I will play around with some options and post solutions here.

I think I’ve got it!

Added this line to wp-instagram-widget.php

echo '<li>'. esc_attr( $item['description'] ).'</li>';

I placed it just above:

echo '<li><a href="'. esc_url( $item['link'] ) .'" target="'. esc_attr( $target ) .'"><img src="'. esc_url($item[$size]['url']) .'" alt="'. esc_attr( $item['description'] ) .'" title="'. esc_attr( $item['description'] ).'"/></a></li>';

Glad you found a solution.

Remember that any future updates to the plugin will overwrite your changes. With that in mind there is a potential CSS solution that you could add to your theme. I have not tested the following but something along the lines of:

.instagram-pics img:after {
    content:" (" attr(alt) ")";
}

added to your themes stylesheet might do the trick. This will allow you to update the widget in future without worry.
