Add your Instagram feed to Blogger

Put your Instagram feed in a Blogger post, a page or the sidebar. Paste the embed code in HTML view or into an HTML/JavaScript gadget.

How do I add an Instagram widget to Blogger?

In your Blogger dashboard, go to Layout, click Add a Gadget and choose HTML/JavaScript. Paste your SnapWidget embed code and save, and the feed shows in your sidebar or footer. For a post or page, paste the code in HTML view instead. Free Instagram widgets work and refresh every 15 minutes.
