Social Feed Gallery [insta-gallery] Shortcode

The ‘insta-gallery’ shortcode of PHP/WordPress is designed to fetch and display Instagram feeds. It uses the ‘Models_Feed’ class to retrieve the specific feed based on the provided ID.

Shortcode: [insta-gallery]

Parameters

Here is a list of all possible insta-gallery shortcode parameters and attributes:

• id – Identifies the specific Instagram gallery to display

Examples and Usage

Basic example – Showcases the simplest way to use the shortcode by only specifying the ‘id’ attribute.

[insta-gallery id=1 /]

Advanced examples

Illustrates the use of the shortcode with multiple ‘id’ attributes. This will display multiple Instagram galleries, each corresponding to the specified ‘id’.

echo do_shortcode('[insta-gallery id="'.$gallery_id.'"]');
?>
