  Hi, I have a instagram widget set up and need to change the instagram account. Do I have to delete the original Widget and start again or is there anyway of just changing it without having to delete it..

  Hi @lloydh777,
  First you will have to remove the old authorized Instagram account from the widget. And then authorize your new Instagram account.

  Follow these instructions:
  1. Go to My Sites → Customize(Beside the Themes Menu) or Just click this link: https://wordpress.com/customize/, this will open up the customizer.
  2. From the left sidebar of the customizer, click on the Widgets option.
  3. Click on the location where your Instagram widget is.
  4. Click on the Instagram Widget. Now, click on the remove link under Authorized Account text.
  5. and then… Authorize your new Instagram account.
