About this plugin
quqii Social Media Feed Grid displays Instagram profile feeds on your WordPress website. net API which retrieves, caches and serves publicly available Instagram data at lightning speed. No direct Instagram API access required.

Features
- Gutenberg block with inspector controls
- Shortcode for classic editor and page builders
- Automatic caching on the quqii server, based on posting frequency — nothing is stored on your website
- Images, carousels and videos in 4:5 format — a video that only comes with a preview image shows a play badge that opens the post on Instagram
- Nothing from Instagram is stored on your website: no images, no cached data
- Follower count and likes display
- Optional post captions — shown below the image or as a full-image overlay with a customisable color and opacity, revealed by tapping an info icon
- Per-shortcode overrides for the global display settings (e.g. hide the Instagram link or like count for a single feed)
- Responsive grid spacing that respects visitors’ text-size preferences and automatically tightens up on mobile
- Fully customisable via CSS classes

Requirements
An API token is required. net.
External Services
net API to retrieve Instagram profile data.
- Service: feed.quqii.net
- Purpose: Fetching, caching (on the quqii server) and serving publicly available Instagram profile data (profile info and links to post images and videos).
- Data sent: Your API token, the Instagram username(s) you configure, the number of posts you want to show (the limit setting, capped at your plan), and the URL of the page the feed is displayed on (shown back to you in your own quqii dashboard, so you can check a feed is live where you expect it — not shared with anyone else).
- When: On every page load that uses the [quqii-feed] shortcode or block (nothing is cached on your website; the quqii API answers from its own cache).

This plugin also connects to Instagram (Meta Platforms) when a visitor chooses to play a video:
- Service: instagram.com (Instagram’s own embedded player)
- Purpose: Playing a video of a displayed post in an overlay on your page, instead of sending the visitor away to Instagram.
- Data sent: Only after the visitor clicks “Play video” in the overlay, their browser loads the player from Instagram, which receives the visitor’s IP address and may set cookies. Nothing is loaded from Instagram before that click. You can switch this off under Settings → Display → “Play videos on the page”; videos then link to Instagram as before.
