Yatoon Social Feed
Yatoon Social Feed lets you show your Facebook Page photos and Instagram Business account photos side by side (or separately) anywhere on your WordPress site, using a simple shortcode.
Instead of a fragile one-click OAuth login (which frequently breaks as Meta changes its app review requirements), this plugin uses long-lived access tokens that you generate once via Meta’s own tools and paste into the settings screen. This keeps the plugin lightweight and avoids requiring you to create and maintain your own Meta Developer App with special review permissions for basic photo display.
Features
- Connect a Facebook Page using a permanent Page Access Token
- Connect an Instagram Business account using an Instagram Access Token
- Automatic background sync (hourly, twice daily, or daily) — or sync manually with one click
- Independent grid settings for Facebook and Instagram (columns, rows, spacing)
- Optional profile header showing avatar, name, follower count, bio, and a Follow button — auto-synced from the connected accounts, no manual typing required
- Simple shortcode:
[yatoon_social_feed] - Lightweight: no external JavaScript SDKs loaded on your site, just your own photos
Pro Version
The free version displays a small « by Yatoon.com » credit beneath your photo grid. Upgrade to Pro to remove it.

External Services
This plugin connects to external APIs provided by Meta (Facebook/Instagram) to retrieve photos and profile information. These calls are made server-side from your WordPress installation — no Meta JavaScript SDK is loaded in visitors’ browsers.
Facebook Graph API Used to fetch your Facebook Page profile data (name, avatar, follower count, bio) and Page photos. Data is sent when you verify your token and during background sync. – Service: Facebook / Meta Platforms, Inc. – Endpoint: https://graph.facebook.com/ – Terms of Service: https://developers.facebook.com/terms/ – Privacy Policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/
Instagram Graph API Used to fetch your Instagram Business account profile data and media. Data is sent when you verify your token and during background sync. – Service: Instagram / Meta Platforms, Inc. – Endpoint: https://graph.instagram.com/ – Terms of Service: https://developers.facebook.com/terms/ – Privacy Policy: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy/
Meta CDN (image serving)
After sync, your WordPress site displays photos using their original URLs hosted on Meta’s content delivery network (e.g., scontent-*.cdninstagram.com, scontent-*.fbcdn.net). When a visitor’s browser loads your page, it fetches these image files directly from Meta’s servers. No personal visitor data is intentionally sent — this is a standard image request.
– Privacy Policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/
No visitor data is collected or stored by this plugin. The only data transmitted to Meta’s APIs is your access token (to authenticate requests) and API query parameters (e.g., requested fields, pagination limits).
