  In general, you can find more information about using plugins on WordPressdotcom here:

  Thank you for the links,

  Turns out I’d deleted the entire sidebar, uploaded the sidebar.php from the wordpress theme and the IG feed popped straight in there.

  @testareaadmin –

  uploaded the sidebar.php

  If so, then you are talking about a site using the standalone WP software and not a site hosted on WordPressdotcom, as here we do not have access to our site PHP or underlying HTML.

  For future assistance with your self-hosted WP site, please head over to https://wordpress.org/support/ If you don’t have a username there you can register one on that page.

  Standalone WP and WordPressdotcom are not the same entities. You can learn more about that here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Best wishes
