  In the widget option for Instagram, I click on authorize Instagram account, it comes up with a message saying stay on page or leave page. Once I’ve clicked leave page it doesn’t redirect to Instagram account or any other page.

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

  I actually figured it out! Instead of going directly to “Customize”, click on WP Admin instead. Then go to Appearance > Widgets > then add the Instagram widget to your desired Sidebar.

  Hope this helps =) https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/instagram-widget-not-working-5?replies=8#post-2255908

  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. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/instagram-widget-wont-authorize-access?replies=9#post-2333822
