  I used to have be able to connect my instagram latest posts via the widgets in the wp-admin section of an old blog some years ago. Now I wanted to connect my blog to instagram to display my latest posts but it doesn’t work with the widget block editor.

  I’ve selected the widget and pressed the blue button that says connect to instagram but it just never does. On the bottom of the menu it said something about using the old widget menu but when I clicked on this it just led me to wordpress.org ;(

  Can anyone please help? I want to display my insta posts but I can’t even get the widget to connect in the first place This new block editor is just frustrating all round!
