    I'm not sure if something changed or I was just doing it wrong all this time. Before things broke, I used to just post the URL to an image and the board would display it properly. Like this:



    I saw someone successfully sharing Instagram posts in another thread so for the fuck of it, I tried the additional step of clicking the Instagram button and pasting in the post ID, and it seems to work:



    I guess I can live with performing this additional bit of labor but I'm going to be billing Super7 for the wear and tear on my fingers.

    I dunno if they’re pulling your leg or not, but I see just one pic, of the yellow vinyl monster with red and green sprays next to a laptop. And above that is a small box where maybe a picture should be, but it’s not.

    How are copying the Instagram post and getting the code? When I copy a post from the Instagram app, I get a full address line which doesn’t seem to want to cooperate with the Instagram link on the board here. Should I be copying the Instagram post some other way?

    @hellopike
    Here is the copy link Instagram gives you:
    Code:
    https://www.instagram.com/p/CUsdgoErEEC/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
    Here is the bit you need to include in the Insta tag:
    Code:
    CUsdgoErEEC
    Here is what the code in the Insta tag looks like when you make your post:
    Code:
    [INSTA]CUsdgoErEEC[/INSTA]

    Lame extra step but you can upload to https://imgbb.com/. Once uploaded right click and copy the image then past directly in SB

    So, I've been experimenting with a lot of different scenarios, but right now, on my home network, with a Linux machine running Chrome, here on page 2, in my original post, only the second image is appearing. I built that one using the INSTA tag, in the way that @blakewest documented above.

    @hellopike I can see your image, too.

    This is encouraging.

    I'm not seeing any pics from anyone. Although I now suspect it is probably my Firefox anti-tracking settings that are kicking in to prevent IG images from loading.

    If you have all the Facebook stuff blocked out, then that is likely including Instagram too. A lot of the Instagram web based stuff makes use of URLs on Facebook domains.

    If you are using the Facebook Container extension, it will block Instagram images.
