  I use the radcliffe theme and I would like to connect my instagram to my blog. The help section has not really helped. How do I do this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  When you are on your WP admin page you can find many widgets under the appearance option, including one for Instagram.

  You can just drag and drop them into the box that says “sidebar”. It’s going to want you to authorize WP to access your Instagram account. It can take a little time to show up, so don’t worry if you don’t see it right away.

  Are you referring to the instagram widget? If so note what spookycrisp posted above.

  Have you used this guide? https://en.support.wordpress.com/instagram/instagram-widget/
  Have you consulted this support doc?
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/#widget-visibility

  Is your Instagram account public? Or is is private and therefore blocked when it comes to display of images in the widget on your blog?

  This particular widget needs to be authorized using the WP admin widget page rather than the customizer. If you go to Appearance>Widgets from the WP Admin dashboard and authorize the widget from there, you’ll have much better luck.
