Resizing Instagram Embed block

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi there,

    I’ve used the Instagram Embed block on one of my blog posts (still in draft mode). But the Instagram posts are displayed full width (and it’s a little overwhelming).

    Is there a way to reduce the size? There doesn’t seem to be a bounding box or any options in the side panel. I was thinking maybe adjusting with custom css, but I tried several things and it didn’t do anything.

    Kindly let me know if there’s anything that can be done.

    Thank you!
    J

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

  • Howdy –

    No problem, I’ll be glad to take a look to see if there are any options. Which draft post are you specifically working on? I just need the title. Thanks :)

    Hi staff-zinnia!

    The title in drafts is “Shopper Experience blog” for now (WIP, as you can see).

    I have embedded two Instagram posts, and I was planning on including a few more, but at their current size it will make for a terrible UX and a very long post.

    Thanks for your help!

  • Currently we don’t have any control over what Instagram sends over besides maybe being able to adjust it via Custom CSS.

    With embeds, it’s a bit difficult to say if that will be possible, it depends on many factors, but we can try a few things out after the post is published if you’d like us to.

    Thank you for looking into this, staff-blorbo.

    I think I will publish them as images for now, as I want to get it up and share it asap…

    However, I would like to find a solution. I could publish a separate test blog with an embedded Instagram post if you are able to help me. I’ll reply when the test blog is live.

    Kind regards,
    J

  • A separate test post or page would work, we can work with that. :)
