Add Snapwidget Instagram widget to your website

Apart from the default Instagram Gallery, you can embed your Instagram images in pages and blog posts without adding them into a dedicated gallery with the help of Snapwidget.


To add Snapwidget, follow these steps:

  • Sign up on Snapwidget. Once you sign in, you’ll see the screen that asks you to choose a service.
  • Click on the Choose a service (1) button.
  • This will show you three options (2) to choose from – Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.


  • Click on Instagram and scroll down to the section where you have to choose your preferred layout.
  • Select the layout you’d prefer to display on your website. You’ll now see the option to configure the widget. Click on the Configure Widget button.
  • This will take you to the screen where you can edit the description and appearance of the widget.

  1. Username – Click here to add your Instagram username. You’ll see a popup asking you to sign in with Instagram (if you aren’t signed in yet). Click on the Sign in with Instagram button.
    You’ll then see a popup window that asks you for permission to authorize. Click on the Authorize button.
  2. Description – Enter a description of your Instagram feed here.
  3. Thumbnail Size – Specify the size of image thumbnails here.
  4. Layout – Specify the number of columns and rows you want to display.
  5. Get Widget – Click on the Get Widget button to get your embed code. You’ll then see a popup window that shows the code. Click on the Copy to clipboard button to copy the whole embed code.
  6. Update Preview – Click here to update your changes.
