Verified Profile Support

Hey Tim,

This is a limitation of the Instagram API unfortunately. You could recreate the checkmark though by following these directions:

1) Add a class to the feed: [instagram-feed class=”verified”]

2) Add the following to the plugin’s Custom JavaScript section:

$(‘.verified .sb_instagram_header h3’).append(‘<span class=”sb_verified”></span>’);

3) Add the following to the Custom CSS section:

.sb_verified {
background-image: url(//instagramstatic-a.akamaihd.net/h1/sprites/core-sprites-6625b8.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: -411px -409px;
height: 18px;
width: 18px;
display: block;
float: right;
margin-left: 3px;
}

That is displaying as “<span class=”sb_verified”></span>”

https://timwhite.co is my site

Hmm that is very strange. For some reason the new html is being read as just part of the text. I have another thing to try. Change:

$('.verified .sb_instagram_header h3').append('<span class="sb_verified"></span>');

to this

$('.verified .sb_instagram_header h3').html('@itstimwhite<span class="sb_verified"></span>');

That worked. Thanks!

Awesome! Glad we could get it working for you. Let me know if you need anything else.

hey! i hope you dont mind me posting here but i didn’t want to start a new thread and the same question of mine had expired.

i downloaded the wp instagram feed and followed all instructions… for some reason whe ni paste the [instagram-feed] into a new page it loads the follow button but not the feed. please help!

this is the link to the page with the feed: https://www.plantbasednyc.com/home

Hello,

No worries posting here is just fine. I took a look at the page and it looks like you are trying to use your user name instead of your user id. So all you need to do is change “plantbasednyc” in the Settings page to 2302191868. There is a link under the “What’s this” link to help you find other user ids in the future.

That should get it working!
